Dinamo Tbilisi turn down MFK Skalica for Iyed Haj Khalifa

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

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

The paperwork begins on Zé Lucas

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Dinamo Tbilisi have done the hard part with Cruzeiro, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Tiago Cóser turns down Dinamo Tbilisi

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Coritiba keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Tempers go at Dinamo Tbilisi

Jaba Kankava 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.

Coritiba tell Dinamo Tbilisi: Tiago Cóser is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

A row about effort at Dinamo Tbilisi

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

Dinamo Tbilisi try to borrow Joaquín Freitas

Flamengo have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Luiz Miguel needs a bigger stage

He is doing things every Saturday that nobody around him can answer. It is flattering for a season and a problem after that, and Dinamo Tbilisi know which stage they are at.

Market17 Aug 2026

Still no ink between Dinamo Tbilisi and Luiz Miguel

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Dinamo Tbilisi, another week without a signature from Luiz Miguel.

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.

A falling-out at Dinamo Tbilisi

Jaba Kankava and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Door shut on Ryan Francisco

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

Giorgi Qazaishvili steps up from the Dinamo Tbilisi academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Giorgi Qazaishvili has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

One of our own: Jaba Gvelesiani joins the Dinamo Tbilisi first team

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

Dinamo Tbilisi promote Levan Kvaratskhelia from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Levan Kvaratskhelia 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.

Dinamo Tbilisi promote Levan Kobiashvili from within

The manager makes an example of Mathew Gbomadu

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Numan Kurdić has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Dinamo Tbilisi they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Boardroom3 Aug 2026

Dinamo Tbilisi to lose Numan Kurdić for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Numan Kurdić has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Jaba Kankava signs a new deal

Words exchanged at Dinamo Tbilisi

Jaba Kankava and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Words at Dinamo Tbilisi training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Giorgi Kukhianidze is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Door shut on Irakli Azarovi

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

Jaba Kankava stands down from international duty

“100 caps is more than I ever expected, and it is time somebody else had them.” At 40 he is finished with his country and nowhere near finished with Dinamo Tbilisi.

The clock runs on Nikoloz Ninua's contract

49 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Dinamo Tbilisi ask about Isaac

A loan enquiry to Athletico Paranaense: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.
