Lasha Dvali (Order of Honor) (Georgian: ლაშა დვალი, romanized: lasha dvali, pronounced [laʃa dʷali]; born 14 May 1995) is a Georgian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Cypriot First Division club APOEL and the Georgia national team.

Club career

[edit]

In June 2013, Dvali moved to Latvian Higher League side FC Skonto,[1] before moving again three months later to English Championship side Reading.[2][3] Reading loaned Dvali back to Skonto in February 2014, for the 2014 season,[4] before he was again loaned out in February 2015, this time to Süper Lig side Kasımpaşa for the remainder of the 2014–15 season.[5]

On 31 August 2015, Dvali signed a one-year contract, with the option of a second, with German 2. Bundesliga side MSV Duisburg.[6] The contract was voided on 21 December 2015.[7] He joined Śląsk Wrocław on 13 January 2016.[8]

On 3 March 2017, he was loaned to Irtysh Pavlodar,[9] with the deal expiring on 11 June 2017.[10]

On 24 July 2017, he moved to Pogoń Szczecin.[11]

On 30 January 2019, Dvali transferred to Ferencváros.[12] On 16 June 2020, he became champion with Ferencváros by beating Budapest Honvéd at the Hidegkuti Nándor Stadion on the 30th match day of the 2019–20 Nemzeti Bajnokság I season.[13] On 20 April 2021, he won the 2020-21 Nemzeti Bajnokság I season with Ferencváros by beating archrival Újpest FC 3–0 at the Groupama Arena.[14]

In July 2022, Dvali joined Cypriot club APOEL as a free agent on a year-long deal.[15] The 2024 season turned out especially memorable as he secured the league and the Super Cup titles with the team.[16]

International career

[edit]

Dvali was called up for the Georgian national team in October 2014 for the game against Gibraltar, having previously missed out on the squad to face Scotland due to visa problems in travelling to Scotland.[17]

He made his debut on 29 March 2015 in a European qualifier against reigning World Cup champions Germany, replacing the injured Aleksandre Amisulashvili after four minutes in a 2–0 defeat at the Boris Paichadze Dinamo Arena in his native Tbilisi.[18]

On 13 November 2017, Dvali netted his first goal for the team in a friendly match against Belarus held in Kutaisi.[19]

On 26 March 2024, Dvali scored Georgia's fourth penalty in the penalty shoot-out against Greece in a 0–0 (4–2 after penalties) win that sent Georgia to UEFA Euro 2024, the first major tournament in the country's history.[20]
