Liverpool fans could be forgiven for drooling at the prospect of Richard Hughes and his recruitment team adding Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to the side.
The Reds already boast world-class attacking options including Mo Salah, Luis Diaz, Diogo Jota, Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Federico Chiesa.
David Ornstein sparked hope with an update on I did it.

At the moment we are very well equipped with winger options, but questions still remain about Mo Salah’s future on the right flank.
Kvaratskelia is primarily a left-winger, but he makes notable concessions, which will no doubt inspire some. if Conversation between key members of the recruitment team.
Maybe that’s something to take note of.
Liverpool need to sign Kvicha Kvaratskelia.
Unfortunately for Liverpool, PSG appear to have stolen an early march in the fight for the striker’s future this January.

Of course, money isn’t always everything in football, and one might reasonably expect a comparative sporting project for the red half of Merseyside to be much more attractive.
We are currently top of both the Premier League and Champions League standings and remain in contention for all four silverware on offer for the 2024/25 season.
Do Liverpool really need Kvaratskelia?
Opportunism is the name of the game for Liverpool’s decision-makers. So it comes as no surprise to us that the club is making a bold move mid-season.
That said, we strongly believe that the need to strengthen the defense is even more important, particularly highlighting the clear need for a left-back in the squad.
We need to make the most of our available options, but any further issues with the backline, whether through injuries or poor form, could completely derail what has been a thoroughly enjoyable campaign.
