Victor Orta holds talks with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Leeds could complete signing by July 15

Leeds United director Victor Orta has completed talks with Rubin Kazan winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, according to the players’ agent.

It has been confirmed that clubs from England, Germany and Italy are all interested, with a move to the Premier League or Serie A most likely.

Kvaratskhelia has been described as a player that nearly every club in Europe wants to sign, with fresh approaches coming in nearly every day to the Russians.

Georgian journalist Lasha Kokiashvili has shared the update on his personal Twitter account, after talking with the wingers’ agent.

“Incredibly great interest in the player,” he said.

“Every day Rubin is contacted by numerous teams and get information about the player. English, Italian and German teams are interested. They know that Kvara is a top talent and everyone want him.

“A conversation with the Leeds United Sports Director was confirmed by the player’s agent. By July 15th at the most, everything will be over and Kvara will be in the new team.”

Time is ticking.

With just over one month to go until Kvaratskhelia supposedly will be at a new club, Orta will have to work his magic to win the race.

The Russian Premier Liga have labelled the winger as “world-class” after his incredible skill at points throughout the previous campaign.

That clip alone is enough to get us drooling at the prospect of this signing, with him drifting past numerous defenders with ease on his way to goal.2

Georgian journalist Kokiashvili has been close to this one since it started, so this is certainly one to watch as he reports everything along the way.

This could happen at any point in the next month, so keep your eyes peeled.
