An emissary from Manchester United was spotted in the stands of the recent clash between Empoli and Napoli, focusing in particular on Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Alessandro Buongiorno, Tuttomercatoweb relays.

The Red Devils are no strangers to shopping in Serie A. They signed Joshua Zirkzee last summer and André Onana two years ago. Their interest emerges in a trying time in the relationship between the Georgian star and the Partenopei. The conversations to extend his contract have proven to be very challenging.

Manchester United could join the list of suitors for Kvaratshkelia, while it’d take a massive offer to convince Napoli to let go of Buongiorno. They spent €40M to acquire from Torino just last summer. The team values him over €70M now.

PSG have been insistently linked to the attacker and put forth a €100M bid. However, Antonio Conte considered him untouchable. President Aurelio De Laurentiis alluded that their stance could change with no progress regarding his renewal.

Our Take on Manchester United, Kvaratskhelia, and Buongiorno

The Red Devils have enough good defenders already, plus he joined recently, so there’s probably nothing there. Instead, if the Azzurri do put the forward up for sale to cash in fully, a proper offer could arrive only from the Premier League, PSG, or Saudi Arabia, but there have been no hints of the last destination for him. He’s a Real Madrid fan, but they are set with Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappé.
