Did You Know?

Napoli signed him for just 10M EUR from Dinamo Tbilisi - one of the greatest bargains in football history. PSG paid 70M EUR just two years later.

At Euro 2024 he scored a stunning goal against Portugal and carried tiny Georgia - population 3.7 million - to the Round of 16 for the first time ever.

His father Badri also played professional football and coached him from age 4. The whole Kvaratskhelia family moved to support his career.

He grew up watching Ronaldinho videos obsessively and has incorporated some of the Brazilian legend tricks into his own dribbling style.

Georgia qualifying for Euro 2024 was considered one of the greatest upsets in European football history. Kvara was the reason they qualified.
