Khvicha Kvaratskhelia hailed as ‘best player in the world’ by four-time Champions League winner after ‘unbelievable’ display for PSG vs Bayern Munich

Paris Saint-Germain star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been labelled the “best player in the world” by AC Milan legend Clarence Seedorf following a masterclass in the Champions League. The Georgia international was at his devastating best on Tuesday night as the reigning champions edged out Bayern Munich in a nine-goal thriller at the Parc des Princes.

The Georgian’s performance was central to running the German giants ragged as PSG secured a narrow advantage with a chaotic 5-4 victory in the semi-final first leg. After Harry Kane had put the visitors ahead from the penalty spot, Kvaratskhelia dragged his side back into the contest with a composed finish after beating Aleksandar Pavlovic. He added a second after the break, converting following a marauding run from Achraf Hakimi. His ability to combine direct wing-play with tactical versatility heavily impressed onlookers – including Seedorf, who noted how the 25-year-old often drifted inside to overload the midfield, effectively acting as an extra playmaker for the French champions during their high-octane transitions.
