Khvicha Kvaratskhelia may have got the better of Arsenal with Paris Saint-Germain last season, but the Georgian’s past comments about Mikel Arteta’s side show just how highly he regards the Gunners.
In fact, speaking last season after facing Arsenal in the Champions League, Kvaratskhelia was full of praise for Mikel Arteta’s team, describing them as one of the very best sides in the game.
How much would you pay to sign Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for Arsenal?
“It was a really tough game because Arsenal is one of the best teams in the world right now,” Kvaratskhelia told the media after last season’s clash.
Arsenal have now been linked with a move for Kvaratskhelia, and his comments are rather interesting to read following the recent transfer reports.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was full of praise for Arsenal
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has already expressed how impressed he has been by Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal team after last season’s Champions League semi-final.
The PSG winger didn’t just offer generic praise either, as he pointed to how complete the Gunners were as a team, which is interesting to hear given the recent criticism of Arsenal’s attack.
“They showed that they have the ability to play very well in the attack and the defence,” he added.
“I think we deserved to win today, and that’s why we won. So, it was a really, really tough game for us today.”
The 26-year-old would be the perfect addition for the Gunners’ front line as he is considered to be one of the best attackers in Europe.
Recently, he dismantled Chelsea in the Champions League as he netted three goals across the two legs against the West London club.
Would Khvicha Kvaratskhelia be your dream Arsenal signing… If not, who do you want to see the Gunners sign?
Kvaratskhelia is open to joining Arsenal in the summer, and it will be interesting to see whether the Gunners could get him should Andrea Berta make the move.
But the fact that he has already called Arteta’s team ‘one of the best teams in the world’ also suggests that he could be open to joining.
Berta is looking to make big sales at Arsenal this summer, and Gabriel Martinelli could make way to help bring the PSG star to London.
