Tornike Gaprindashvili

Tornike Gaprindashvili made his name at Dinamo Batumi, where he helped the club win its first-ever Erovnuli Liga title in 2021 and added the Georgian Super Cup the following year. That run in Georgia earned him a move abroad in July 2022, when Zagłębie Lubin paid around €200,000 to bring him to Poland.

His spell at Zagłębie included appearances for the club's reserve side before a loan took him to Arka Gdynia in January 2024, an arrangement with an option to buy that was made permanent that July for an undisclosed fee. Gaprindashvili settled into an attacking role at Arka, and in 2025 switched from right wing to attacking midfielder, where his passing and creativity came to the fore. Across his time at the club he made 51 league appearances and scored three goals.

The high point of his Arka Gdynia career came in the 2024–25 season, when the club won the I liga title and secured promotion to the Ekstraklasa. His contract ran until 30 June 2026, by which point Arka had been relegated back out of the top flight. Gaprindashvili then returned home, joining Samgurali Tskaltubo on a permanent deal in July 2026.

At international level, Gaprindashvili's involvement with Georgia has so far been limited to the youth ranks: he made one appearance for the under-17s during qualification for the 2014 UEFA European Under-17 Championship.
