Former AC Milan and Italy star Gianluigi Lentini admits he's a fan Khvicha Karavtskhelia.

The Georgia winger has been a revelation in his first months with Napoli.

Speaking with La Gazzetta dello Sport, Lentini enthused: "Honestly, I did not know him. I saw him earlier this year and he pleasantly impressed me.

"The progression and strength in his legs are his strengths. He is one who plants it well, so it becomes difficult to face him even physically.

"In today's football there is this component that makes the difference: when you, in addition to being technical, quick and fast, are also physically strong, then you are really an excellent player."
