Market29 Nov 2027

Piruz Gabitashvili asks to leave Tskhinvali

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad29 Nov 2027

Luka Khelashvili is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 21 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Market29 Nov 2027

Guram Janelidze is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Tskhinvali is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad29 Nov 2027

A row about effort at Tskhinvali

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Achille Milani was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout29 Nov 2027

Bachana Tsitaishvili gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Bachana Tsitaishvili is on it.

Squad29 Nov 2027

Zurab Kakabadze in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Tskhinvali this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market29 Nov 2027

Achille Milani linked with a move away

The name of Achille Milani keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Tskhinvali say nothing, which says plenty.

Match29 Nov 2027

Tskhinvali in the hunt for Europe

Position 6, 60 points, and a run-in that decides whether next season has Thursday nights in it. Nobody is calling it a race yet, which is what people say during one.

The dugout29 Nov 2027

Aleksandre Lobjanidze knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Tskhinvali, and both men came out saying it was fine.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad13 Sep 2027

A knee injury of the worst kind for Jaba Chakvetadze

32 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Tskhinvali lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad13 Sep 2027

Remember the name: Nika Kakabadze

He is 16, he is averaging 6.59, and older professionals have started passing to him in the difficult minutes. That last part is the real scouting report.

The dugout13 Sep 2027

Giorgi Beraia keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Tskhinvali may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad13 Sep 2027

Nika Kiteishvili is carrying Tskhinvali

12 goals and a season average of 7.31. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

Match11 Sep 2027

Nika Kiteishvili’s goal not enough for Tskhinvali

Nika Kiteishvili scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑3 to Dinamo Tbilisi, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Transfer targets13 Sep 2027

Deadline beats Tskhinvali to Rezo Lomidze

The clock did what Guria would not, and ended it. Supporters who watched the countdown will spend the next window doing it again.

The dugout13 Sep 2027

No place for Giorgi Kiteishvili on the big day

He found out with everybody else, an hour before kick-off, from a sheet of paper on a wall. Nobody at Tskhinvali pretended it was anything other than a decision about him.

The dugout13 Sep 2027

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 1‑3 defeat, delivered by Beka Kvaratskhelia to a room that had heard them before.

Mamuka Kashia in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Tskhinvali this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
