Aurelio De Laurentiis, venomous backstory on Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's farewell
Aurelio de Laurentiis returned to speak on “7” about the sale of Kvaratskhelia: “I had to do it because his attorney was threatening to resort to’Article 17”.
“After the Georgian’s first, formidable season we immediately took care to negotiate a contract renewal, improving his salary and going so far as to offer him a very large sum, because it was obvious that the limited compensation would attract half a world ready to give him golden bridges”,
added the Napoli president.
“His attorney, Mamuka Jugeli, had other plans for himself and the soccer player. He wanted to wrest from another club a very high commission for him, as well as a double-digit salary for Kvara. At the end of the second contractual year there’was the European Championship in Germany”.
“Manna, Chiavelli and I flew to Düsseldorf to resolve the issue, but Mamuka kept stalling by claiming that Giuntoli had promised him money that had not been paid. Lie, it was not difficult to ascertain. I should have sold him then, Psg had offered more than 200 million euros for the Kvara-Osimhen package. But I had promised Conte to keep him and I did not feel like it,” De Laurentiis concluded.
