Napoli kicks-off Serie A season without last season’s MVP

One of Napoli’s leaders in the past championship season – Khvicha Kvaratskhelia,  will miss the start of the Serie A this weekend.

The club announced that the Georgian international is overtired and will not travel for the visit to Frosinone, which is on Saturday.

Earlier in the month, Kvaratskhelia suffered a leg injury, but it was nothing serious. This morning he trained individually on a light drill, while his teammates were working at full speed under Rudi Garcia.
