The Georgian international has recently been touted as a target for the Premier League leaders, joining a list of European giants, including Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, reportedly interested in securing his signature.
Liverpool have been tracking Kvaratskhelia as a potential long-term replacement for Mohamed Salah.
The 22-year-old has made 17 Serie A appearances this season, scoring five goals, following two impressive campaigns with Napoli in which he consistently reached double-digit goal tallies.
Responding to speculation, Slot commented on the transfer rumors during a press conference, as reported by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
Addressing Liverpool’s January transfer activity and the Kvaratskhelia links, Slot remarked:
“What I make of that is that it’s January… 99 times out of 100, it becomes clear almost all these stories are not true.”
Should Liverpool Pursue Khvicha Kvaratskhelia?
Kvaratskhelia is renowned for his creativity, goal-scoring ability, and exceptional dribbling skills. His versatility allows him to play on either wing or as a central attacking midfielder in the number 10 role.
Given Salah’s uncertain future, targeting Kvaratskhelia would be a logical move for Liverpool.
The Reds also have the financial capacity to complete a deal after a relatively modest summer transfer window.
Acquiring the Georgian winger could add a new dimension to Liverpool’s attack, solidifying their position as one of Europe’s top teams.
