But my understanding is crystal clear: PSG have no intention to open talks for Kvaratskhelia this summer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey love him \u2013 his attitude, professionalism, consistency. And remember, he joined from Napoli only 14\u202fmonths ago, in January\u202f2025. So PSG want to enjoy him much longer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course, Arsenal are expected to strengthen up front \u2013 maybe a striker, maybe a winger \u2013 but not Kvaratskhelia.
