Hungry for sport, he grew up to the sound of Formula 1 engines and the exploits of Ronaldinho. Today, with a Master's degree in sports journalism, he no longer misses an F1 Grand Prix or a PSG match, his two passions and specialties.

The Parisian club paid €70 million to recruit him from Naples, but the Georgian international will not be able to play against Manchester City on Wednesday evening. This does not prevent Luis Enrique from getting excited about the arrival of his new number 7.

-Luis Enrique validates the transfer of Kvaratskhelia
« I believe that he is a player who demonstrated in Naples and in the selection. He is a player perfectly adaptable to our game model. He has a great ability to play one against one, he can play inside, he can play in a 9. He responds to this idea of versatility, he has this capacity to overflow. It fits our system. He is also a player who also has a great ability to defend because we have to attack and defend with 11 players. He is a player who on paper adapts to our idea of football », he confided to the media.

Luis Enrique also mentioned the lack of offensive realism of the PSG this season, which could evolve with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. « If we compare PSG last year and this season: we had a reference player who scored an immense number of goals every year. This year we said we were going to solve this with the whole team and not just one player. The important thing is that we score more goals than last year. There is no specific player », added Luis Enrique.
