Transfer targets

No deal for Felipe Vizeu at that price

Dinamo Tbilisi offered $7.5M; Sporting Cristal said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Market

Dinamo Tbilisi turn down Saburtalo for Nikoloz Ugrekhelidze

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Transfer targets

Dinamo Tbilisi bid $640.0K for Otar Kvilitaia

The offer went to Zugdidi this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Player ratings

Algassime Bah runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 23. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Mathew Gbomadu signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Mathew Gbomadu commits to Dinamo Tbilisi for another 4 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Dinamo Tbilisi

Lyes Houri was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Mateo Benegas

Dinamo Tbilisi asked and Ferro Carril Oeste said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market

Dinamo Tbilisi promote Beka Arveladze from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Beka Arveladze has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market

One of our own: Tornike Kobiashvili joins the Dinamo Tbilisi first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Tornike Kobiashvili is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

In brief
