Napoli chief Cristiano Giuntoli is delighted with the impact of summer signing Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

The 21-year-old Georgia international was signed €10m from Dinamo Batumi, who moved from Rubin Kazan in March.

“We knew of his quality and hoped he would have this impact," said Giuntoli.

"We'd been following him for a long time, there were some very big asking prices, but then unfortunately the war broke out, the conditions changed and we intervened to lock him down."
