Liverpool have kicked off the chase for rising star Tornike Kvaratskhelia, the talented winger currently plying his trade with Tbilisi's Dynamo.
However, the Reds aren't alone in this pursuit. Their Premier League rivals, including Manchester City, Manchester United, Brighton, and Aston Villa, have all made formal inquiries about the young Georgian.
Among the English clubs, Chelsea and Tottenham appear to be the frontrunners in the race for his signature.
But it seems Bayern Munich are leading the charge, reportedly keen to secure Kvaratskhelia's services. The 16-year-old has already trained with the German giants this summer.
For now, English teams must bide their time. Due to international regulations on the transfer of minors, the winger cannot move to the UK until he turns 18, making a switch possible only in 2028.
Expect to see a fierce battle for the youngster's signature over the next two years.
Currently, Kvaratskhelia's contract with the Georgia under-17 national team runs until June 2028, with his market value reported at 500,000 euros according to Transfermarkt. This season, he has featured in seven matches in the Erovnuli Liga and represented Georgia's under-17 side seven times, finding the net once.
