KHVICHA KVARATSKHELIA's dad has dealt a massive blow to Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal who had all hoped to sign the Napoli star in the summer.

The Georgian wonderkid is set to remain at the Serie A club next season after fans speculated about the star's future in Italy.

Kvaratskhelia, 23, who is under contract at the Italian side until 2027 has been a top transfer target amongst the European giants.

But for all the clubs interested in signing the winger including Chelsea, Arsenal and United it looks unlikely the Napoli player will be going anywhere - at least for now.

The star's father Badri confirmed Kvaratskhelia's summer plans to Radio Serie A.

He said: "I am so happy with Napoli’s title and that my son Khvicha contributed to winning it.

"I am grateful to Italy and Naples for having welcomed and appreciated him as a person and as a footballer.

“He’s the only one who can choose whether to stay at Napoli, but I think he will continue wearing the Napoli shirt. In any case, I will respect his decision.”

Despite being key in Francesco Caizona's squad scoring nine goals and making six assists this season he is still one of the lowest-paid players at the club.

The Georgia international was instrumental in Napoli's first league title win in 33 years last season.

He scored 14 goals and assisted 14 in all competitions and had stellar performances in Juventus' 5-1 defeat in January and Liverpool's 4-1 loss in the Champions League.

With Napoli's poor season so far as they look unlikely to qualify for the Champions League next term many of Europe's biggest clubs have been interested in signing the winger.

Alongside the Premier League clubs, Barcelona and PSG are said to be keeping tabs on Kvaratskhelia.
