Leeds United have been linked with a move for the Rubin Kazan winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
According to Football fancast, the Premier League side are keeping tabs on the 20-year-old attacker following his recent performances for Georgia and his club.
As per the report, the winger’s agent has already held talks with Victor Orta regarding a summer move to Elland Road.
The Georgian international has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich as well and it remains to be seen whether the Whites can secure his services in the summer.
The 20-year-old is highly rated and he made quite an impression against Spain during a 2022 World Cup qualifier last month.
Furthermore, the youngster has impressed for Rubin Kazan as well and he could prove to be a smart long term investment for Leeds. He has four goals and eight assists to his name in 23 appearances for the Russian outfit.
Kvaratskhelia has a contract with the Russian side until the summer of 2024 and Rubin Kazan are under no pressure to sell him this summer.
That said, a potential move to Leeds could be appealing for the player who might be tempted to work with a renowned manager like Marcelo Bielsa.
The Leeds boss has done well to nurture young talents like Illan Meslier and Pascal Struijk this season and he could help the Georgian winger fulfil his potential as well.
Both Leeds and Bayern have done well to promote young talent in recent years and it remains to be seen where the player ends up eventually. Both clubs could provide him with an excellent platform for development.
