Liverpool’s interest in Napoli player Hviča Kvaratschlija is growing, with reports suggesting the Reds are exploring an ambitious swap deal to secure the Georgian winger’s arrival.
Earlier, David Ornstein of The Athletic revealed that while Liverpool are not actively pursuing Kvara Tskhelia, they may make a move if he becomes available.

Now, Wake Up Kop claims Liverpool are plotting a blockbuster deal to bring the 23-year-old to Anfield.
The report highlights that Liverpool have been keeping a close eye on Kvaradzheliya as a potential long-term replacement for Mohamed Salah.
With Salah’s future at Anfield uncertain – his contract expires at the end of the season and an extension has yet to be agreed – the Reds appear to be preparing contingency measures in case their winger leaves.
Kvaradzhelja’s versatility, creativity and goal-scoring ability make him the ideal candidate to succeed Salah.
The report claims Liverpool are considering offering Napoli a swap deal that would include the option of one of their players alongside the likes of Darwin Nunes and Federico Chiesa, both of whom could make a move for the Italian champions bring more benefits. Chiesa has been linked with a move to Napoli and a deal may be more likely given the Italian giants’ existing interest in him.
The signings of these high-profile players signal Liverpool’s determination to beat rivals such as Paris Saint-Germain, who are believed to be leading the race for Kvaradzhelia.
Such a deal would provide Napoli with ready-made attacking reinforcements while giving Liverpool access to one of Europe’s most sought-after talents.
Since joining Napoli from Rubin Kazan, Kvaratskhelia has cemented his reputation as one of Europe’s top attackers. He made 107 appearances for Napoli, scoring 30 goals and 29 assists in all competitions.
The Georgia international has continued to perform well this season, scoring five goals and assisting three in 19 games. His career now stands at 52 goals and 53 assists, reflecting his continued influence at club and international level.
Kvaratskhelia’s contract with Napoli is valid until 2027, but he has two years left on his contract and there is no sign of an extension, which the club is considering. PSG’s reported interest in the winger puts them ahead of the competition, but Liverpool’s swap approach may give them an edge in the transfer saga.
