Champions League winner Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has had his vacation turned upside down after thieves broke into his holiday rental. The PSG star was enjoying some well-deserved downtime on the French Riviera when burglars struck.
According to reports from Georgian outlet Geo Team, Kvaratskhelia was holidaying with family and his international teammate Zuriko Davitashvili in Cannes when the incident happened. Thankfully, nobody was hurt during the break-in.
French police have now opened an investigation into the burglary. L'Équipe reports that the thieves made off with valuable items including jewelry, luxury watches, and designer bags from the property.
Star Winger Enjoying Break After Trophy-Laden Season
The 24-year-old Georgian has been in outstanding form since joining PSG from Napoli last summer. He's quickly become a fan favorite in Paris, scoring 7 goals and providing 6 assists in just 25 appearances.
Kvaratskhelia played a crucial role in PSG's Champions League triumph this season. This European success came alongside helping Luis Enrique's team secure their 13th Ligue 1 title – a record-extending achievement for the Parisian club.
The talented winger was given time off to rest and recover before PSG begins their Club World Cup campaign. He even skipped Georgia's recent friendlies against the Faroe Islands and Cape Verde to ensure he's fresh for the upcoming tournament.
Club World Cup Challenge Awaits
PSG's Club World Cup journey kicks off against Atletico Madrid on June 15th. They'll then face Brazilian side Botafogo and MLS outfit Seattle Sounders in their remaining group games.
The tournament presents another opportunity for Kvaratskhelia to showcase his talents on the global stage. His performances could prove decisive for PSG's chances of adding yet another trophy to their cabinet this season.
This unfortunate incident comes at a time when the player should be relaxing ahead of what promises to be an intense tournament. The psychological impact of such events can sometimes affect player performance, something PSG fans will hope doesn't happen with their star winger.
For betting enthusiasts, it's worth monitoring how Kvaratskhelia responds in PSG's upcoming fixtures. Players often show remarkable resilience after personal setbacks, sometimes producing inspired performances that can create value betting opportunities.
