Arsenal midfielder Jorginho has admitted that he has only just recently started to follow Gunners target Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, as quoted in Football Italia.
Kvaratskhelia is one of the best young wingers in the world and has been linked with Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal.
90min reported in January 2023 that Arsenal are among the clubs monitoring the 22-year-old winger.
The report claimed that the Gunners’ interest in the youngster is for the summer transfer window.
The Georgia international winger will cost £100 million or more, according to the report.
Arsenal midfielder Jorginho has been hugely impressed by the Georgia international winger, but the former Chelsea star has admitted that he did not know how he was until this seasn.

Jorginho said: “They are doing incredible things, honestly, I didn’t know the guy playing on the wing (Kvaratskhelia).”
The Italian midfielder added: “They [Osimhen and Kvara] are flying and everything is going well. There is winning energy.”
Impressive
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has exploded for Napoli this season and has been one of the best young players in Europe.
We are not surprised at all that Arsenal are keen on the winger, or that Jorginho is now well aware of who he is.
The 22-year-old winger has made 18 starts and one substitute appearance in Serie A for Napoli so far this season.
Kvaratskhelia has scored 10 goals and given nine assists in those games.
The Georgian star has also scored two goals and provided three assists in five UEFA Champions League games for Napoli so far this campaign.
