Recent discussions between Napoli and Kvaratskhelia's camp are positive, aiming for a contract signing in May. His current salary of €1.5 million is expected to atleast triple, making him the highest-paid player of the squad after Osimhen's potential exit this summer. The Nigerian striker currently earns €10 million with Napoli.

As per reports, A high release clause, likely around €150 million is planned to be added to Kvaratskhelia's new contract to deter potential suitors and protect Napoli's interests. The Serie A giants had put a similar clause in Osimhen's contract as well.
