7 shots, 93% pass accuracy: Arsenal transfer target produces MOTM display vs Liverpool | OneFootball

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been linked with Arsenal recently and his performance against Liverpool last night will have excited Gunners fans.

The Paris Saint-Germain forward was the best player on the pitch as he caused Liverpool problems all night in yesterday’s Champions League quarter-final.

Kvaratskhelia eventually scored the second goal with a delightful mazy run into the box and a cool finish, and it was no less than the Georgia international deserved.

The Independent recently reported that Arsenal are looking into signing Kvaratskhelia this summer, and it’s performances like this that will have Gooners drooling.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was a nightmare for Liverpool’s defence

Kvaratskhelia proved almost impossible for Liverpool to handle, with the 25-year-old looking precisely like the kind of profile that’s missing from Arsenal’s attack.

Mikel Arteta’s side have become a little slow and predictable in their build-up this season, even if their strong defence has put them in serious contention to win both the Premier League and the Champions League.

Someone like Kvaratskhelia, however, could surely take Arsenal to the next level, with the classy forward taking seven shots and notching up a pass accuracy rate of 93%.

In total, he’s now on 12 goals and 8 assists for the season, and it’s easy to imagine him being a major upgrade on inconsistent duo Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard on AFC’s left-hand side.

Is Kvaratskhelia transfer realistic for Arsenal?

Still, PSG will surely do all they can to keep Kvaratskhelia at the club this summer, which could make things difficult for Arsenal.

Luis Enrique’s side continue to look like one of the best teams in Europe, with Kvaratskhelia playing a major role in their Champions League win last season, and looking like doing so again this term.

Overall, this surely means Arsenal are going to struggle to afford the player, while there’s also little reason for him to seek to swap the Parc des Princes for the Emirates Stadium.

It will be interesting to see if the recent transfer rumours amount to anything more concrete in the weeks and months ahead.
