Jaba Dvali (born 8 February 1985) is a Georgian former football player and current manager.
He has played in three countries as a forward. He was a main goalscorer at Zestaponi during their "golden time" when the club twice in a row won the national league.
Career
[edit]Dvali started his professional career at Dinamo Tbilisi. After being loaned to three clubs, he moved to Moldovan side Dacia.
He spent three prolific seasons at Zestaponi during the height of their success in the early 2010s. Dvali personally played a vital role in the club. He became a top goalscorer of the league in 2011–12.[1]
In January 2014, Dvali agreed to join Azerbaijan Premier League side FK Qarabağ on a six-month loan deal.[2][3] In June 2014, at the end of Dvali's loan deal with Qarabağ, he signed a 2-year contract with Zestaponi in Georgia.[4][5] In December 2014, Dvali signed 2-year contract with Dacia Chișinău which came into force on 20 January 2015.[6]
Between 2015 and 2019 Dvali played for five domestic clubs. Especially noteworthy during these short-term stints was his great contribution to Sioni's promotion to Erovnuli Liga, including in a play-off 3–2 victory over Dinamo Batumi where Dvali scored a hat-trick.[7]
In March 2020, Dvali returned to football after a year-long pause as director general of Zestaponi. At one point in 2021, when this fourth-tier club was plagued with injuries and suspensions, he appeared in the starting line-up and even scored from the penalty spot.[8]
Along with the management at the club, Dvali also took charge of Zestaponi Youth Academy.[9]
