Tottenham Hotspur missed the chance to sign Newcastle United target Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for less than £20million in the summer. A report in The Times claims the Magpies are now scouting him ahead of a potential January move.
Kvaratskhelia has been a sensation for Napoli this season, tearing up Serie A to attract interest from European powerhouses. The 21-year-old - who has 19 caps for Georgia - is in inspired form for Gli Azzurri.
Eight goals and 10 assists since a summer switch from Dinamo Batumi place Kvaratskhelia among the continent’s top prospects. Napoli boast an eight-point lead at the top of the table and are on course to win their first title since Diego Maradona led an unfancied side to glory in 1990.
