Tiresias Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Would be incredible but also considering the talk assumed he would be more a £100m one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 As exciting as a link like that is I do feel the whole point of getting Ashworth in is that we're going to look to sign players like Kvaradonna at the stage Napoli did rather than paying massive transfer fees for them once they've got all the top clubs after them. We have shown with Isak we'll pay big money for what we think is the right player though. From my Dennis Wise scouting he looks well suited to the Premier League, quite a physical style he plays with. And this... https://themastermindsite.com/2022/09/24/khvicha-kvaratskhelia-player-analysis/ ... sounds like exactly what Eddie Howe would want from a winger in terms of his defensive workrate.

Guybrush Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Isn't he like the Georgian Ben Arfa? Would be immense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Got the talent and the attitude to match, amazed if he goes for under £75m though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting question isn't it. You could argue that he did that out of necessity at Brighton because they don't have much money. We have loads. Then again, obviously it's better to get these stars earlier in their careers. Guess it'll probably be a bit of both, smart signings like Bruno combined with the odd blockbuster.

sushimonster85 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 This would be huge. Unfortunately I just don't see it, especially at that price and especially in Jan. Napoli have a huge shot at winning the league this year and he is one of the main reasons why. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Can’t imagine Napoli would be selling anyone given they’ve got their best chance of winning the league in years. Unless they’ve got some huge irregularities that have been discovered and I’ve not read about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emotic Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Yes, Napoli won't be selling Kvaradona. Especially not in January. Double especially not for 50 million pounds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sushimonster85 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Does mention in the piece he is supposedly our target for the next 2 windows. More likely it happens in the Summer. But even then, the price tag is going to be huge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 That would be a dream signing. Yes, the price tag will be big but he will probably fit into our wage structure. Can't imagine he's on bucket loads having signed for Napoli in the summer for only a £10m fee. Hard to adjust our mindsets but if we carry on our form this season, this is certainly a realistic signing in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manxst Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Doesn’t sound like he’s on much of a wage compared to PL money. Also the club might still need to sell? “Kvara earns €1.7m gross, €1.2 after taxes, Lorenzo was getting €9m gross, €4.5m net,” said the Partenopei director who admitted Koulibaly, Insigne, Mertens and Fabian left for financial reasons. “We had to run a risk, COVID has affected the finances and we had to bring the club back into a sustainable path. To do that, we had to cut the wage bill. Their sales was a forced choice.” https://football-italia.net/napoli-forced-to-sell-koulibaly-to-chelsea-kvaratskhelias-real-salary-revealed/amp/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would have to pay £85m plus huge add ons if he keeps up the same trajectory - I mean anything less than £100m and the Napoli President will not pick up the phone I reckon If Napoli win the league it could turn out to be a real golden era for them De Laurentiis is as tough as they come Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 We need to make money to appease the ffp gods so that means buying players with sell on value, if, as i suspect, he really costs fair bit over £50m it makes it dubious we will make a profit on him to some degree. I think it is players like Bruno who are a step below in cost for the foreseeable, could be wrong and Isak signing surprised me so who knows... How fucking weird is it to be linked to someone like that and think it even a possibility lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
