Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has already played a part in denying Inter Milan the Serie A title this season, and the Georgian is now hoping to get the better of them again with Paris Saint-Germain in Saturday’s UEFA Champions League (UCL) final.

The 24-year-old winger moved to Paris in January from Napoli — who pipped Inter on the last day of the season by just one point. He is set to have a key role to play for Luis Enrique’s side in Munich, not only due to his own performances but also because he has brought out the best in his fellow forwards at PSG. “He is perfectly adaptable to our way of playing. He is versatile. He can go past players and he can also defend which is essential because we need to be able to defend as 11 players and attack as 11 players,” Luis Enrique said in January.


The Georgian has so far contributed six goals and six assists in 24 appearances for PSG, including one magnificent strike against Aston Villa in the first leg of their UCL quarter-final and the pass to set up Dembele’s winning goal away to Arsenal in the semis.



The PSG boss still faces a difficult decision over which one of his four main attackers to leave out of when they face Inter. 33-goal top scorer Ousmane Dembele is certain to start, meaning one of the in-form Desire Doue or the lively Bradley Barcola will have to drop to the bench to accommodate Kvaratskhelia. 

“Technically he’s a special player, so it won’t be easy,” insisted Denzel Dumfries, Inter’s right wing-back, who is likely to be Kvaratskhelia’s direct opponent on the field. Will Inter be celebrating at his expense or will Kvaratskhelia get his hands on another winner’s medal on Saturday?
