Micah Richards says ‘underrated’ Arsenal target is so good that he should be worth £300m

Arsenal are expected to prioritise signing a new left winger in the summer transfer window.

Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard have both struggled for consistency this season, and there is a growing feeling that Mikel Arteta needs an upgrade in that area.

The Gunners have been linked with several exciting attacking players in recent months. However, few names are as exciting as Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Now, Micah Richards has made an extraordinary claim about the Arsenal target after watching him shine once again for PSG.

😬 Which PSG player worries you the most for the Champions League final?

Micah Richards says Arsenal target Khvicha Kvaratskhelia should be worth £300m

Kvaratskhelia has developed into one of the most feared wingers in world football over the last few years.

The Georgian first exploded onto the scene at Napoli, where his dribbling ability, flair and end product made him one of Europe’s biggest stars. His move to PSG only elevated his reputation further.

Kvaratskhelia, hailed as ‘underrated’ by Gary Lineker, has been sensational during PSG’s run to the Champions League final and was once again outstanding as the French giants beat Bayern Munich in the semi-finals.

Arsenal have been linked with Kvaratskhelia for months, although a deal has always looked incredibly difficult because of his importance to PSG.

Richards clearly believes Kvaratskhelia belongs in the very top bracket of players in world football.

In fact, the former Manchester City defender thinks the Arsenal target is massively underrated purely because of his name.

He said on the Rest is Football podcast: “Kvaratskhelia is my favourite winger in European football by far.

“And I believe if he were called Kvaratskhelia-dinho, he’d be worth £300 million. That’s how good he is.”

How much would you pay to sign Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for Arsenal?

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia could completely transform Arsenal’s attack

Arsenal’s attack has looked predictable at times this season, especially against deep defensive blocks in the Premier League.

That is why signing a winger capable of creating chaos on his own has become such a major priority.

Kvaratskhelia is exactly that type of player.

The Georgian can beat defenders in one-v-one situations, create chances out of nothing and completely change the momentum of games by himself.

Players with that profile are extremely rare, which explains why PSG would likely demand a gigantic fee to even consider selling him.

If Arsenal somehow manage to pull it off, it could become one of the biggest signings in the club’s modern history.
