Liverpool target Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has asked to leave Napoli – but will more than likely join Paris Saint-Germain, according to Alan Shearer.

The Georgian wing-superstar was reported by the ECHO as a real player of interest to Reds chiefs last week, though it seems a transfer to Liverpool won’t be happening.

Throughout his turbulent and eye-catching two-and-a-half years in Naples, Kvaratskhelia has swiftly become one of the most coveted and skilful widemen in Europe.

Impressing in the Champions League with his club side and at Euro 2024 with his country, Georgia, the 23-year-old made his desire to leave Serie A clear in the summer, and now it looks as though he is being shown the exit door.

Though, according to Shearer, it won’t lead to Anfield.

“I think he’s asked to leave, hasn’t he?

While a specific fee hasn’t yet been disclosed, RMC Sport reports that he will move in a deal worth in excess of £60m – and he'll sign a five-year contract.

Though multiple sources and Shearer now suggest that Kvaratskhelia will snub Slot and Merseyside for the French capital, one of the ex-England captain’s co-stars, Micah Richards, feels that the summer recruiting of Federico Chiesa means Liverpool’s frontline is well equipped.

“I think the more players you can get, the better – (for) the amount of games," Richards said.

Gakpo should be in the goals as well.“

Yet, the former Manchester City and Aston Villa defender still voiced his despair at the Reds potentially missing out on Kvaratskhelia, whom he admires for his no-fear dribbling.

“I think if you got Kvaratskhelia, that would be a top signing for them,” said Richards.
