Man United emerge as betting favorites to sign Napoli forward Khvicha Kvaratskhelia

Off the back of their overnight FA Cup triumph, Man United are continually followed by rumors of an imminent move for Georgian winger, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia from Italian side, Napoli in this January transfer window, particularly amid the ongoing speculation over the future of Marcus Rashford.

Progressing to the fourth round of the FA Cup — which the Old Trafford side are the current holders of, United dispatched arch-rivals, Arsenal after 130 minutes in a fierce encounter in London, with Joshua Zirkzee dispatching the winning spot kick in a 5-3 shootout win.

And once more absent from the side, Marcus Rashford’s future at the club remains up in the air, with United current odds on betting favorites to sign the above-mentioned, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia from Napoli at just 7/2 with bestoffshoresportsbooks.org offering football fans and punters the best odds for a host of incoming bets.

Yet to feature for United since his confirmation of plans for a potential move from United in this January transfer window with the view to a “new challenge” away from his boyhood club, a host of suitors have emerged in the race to sign English wideman, Rashford.

In recent weeks, the likes of FC Barcelona, Italian giants, AC Milan, French side, Paris Saint Germain — and even the previously noted, Napoli have emerged as potential landing pads for the academy graduate.

And it would appear a potential move to Naples for Rashford could conceivably see Georgian forward, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia move in the opposite direction — and would make a deal involving both parties rather straightforward.

Potentially set to rekindle their business interests following a move in the summer, another academy product; Scott McTominay made the move to Napoli following a career spent solely at United, and has so far flourished in an Antonio Conte-led system.

Furthermore, hoping to bolster their attacking options in either this window or more likely in a big-money summer move, United have also been linked heavily in recent months to a move for Nigerian goalscorer, Victor Osimhem — who remains on Napoli’s books despite his loan move to Turkish side, Galatasaray in the final days of the summer window.

Reflecting on United’s impressive win over Arsenal after a gruelling penalty shootout, new head coach, Ruben Amorim claimed he was far from sure if Rashford had featured in a United side for the final time already.

“I don’t know,” Ruben Amorim told assembled media at the Emirates Stadium following United’s win over Arsenal in the FA Cup third round. “We’ll see. He (Marcus Rashford) is a player for Manchester United. We’ll see. He has to work.”

“He has to represent his club and he loves his club but I have to make choices” Amorim explained. “I already spoke about how I make the choices. It is what it is. Let’s continue, let’s see the next game and like I said I have to make a selection.”

Struggling for form over the course of the last 18 months which saw him miss out on a trip to the European Championships with his national side in Germany, Rashford has found the net seven times this season from 24 appearances for United.
