Khvicha Kvaratskhelia Arsenal transfer speculation continues to circulate, but fresh reports suggest a move may not currently be on the agenda.

Arsenal have frequently been linked with attacking reinforcements as Mikel Arteta looks to strengthen his squad across multiple competitions.

However, new claims surrounding Paris Saint Germain’s current squad planning may cast doubt over potential movement involving the Georgian winger.

PSG planning to keep their attacking options

According to reports circulating on social media, PSG are currently working on a contract extension for Bradley Barcola.

The club have reportedly not considered allowing any of their wingers to leave while negotiations continue.

That stance could limit the possibility of movement involving players linked with Arsenal.

Kvaratskhelia reportedly happy in Paris

The same reports also claim that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has not expressed a desire to leave Paris.

The winger is said to feel comfortable at the club and remains focused on his role within the squad.

That situation suggests that speculation around a Khvicha Kvaratskhelia Arsenal transfer may currently be premature.

Arsenal continuing to monitor attacking options

Despite the latest claims, Arsenal are expected to continue monitoring attacking options as the club plans future transfer windows.

Arteta has prioritised adding depth and quality to the forward line as the team competes across multiple competitions.

Recent squad rotation has also seen the manager place trust in younger players, including when Arsenal made history by starting two 16 year olds under Mikel Arteta.
