Newcastle set to splash more cash on '£50m-rated Napoli forward Khvicha Kvaratskhelia'

Newcastle United are lining up £50m-rated Napoli winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia as a major transfer target - as Eddie Howe is afforded more money to add to his squad.

The Georgian forward is performing so well in Serie A he has earned the nickname 'Kvaradona' - and Newcastle are reportedly happy to splash the cash on him, despite him moving to Naploli for just £10m in the summer.

Before the World Cup, Newcastle had been keeping a watchful eye on the 21-year-old and the club now see him as a top target over the next two transfer windows, The Times reports.
