Tornike Okriashvili (Georgian: თორნიკე ოქრიაშვილი, pronounced [tʰoɾnikʼe okʰɾiaʃʷili], born 12 February 1992) is a Georgian professional footballer who plays for Dinamo Tbilisi and the Georgia national team. He plays mainly as an attacking midfielder but also can play as a winger.

Club career[edit]

Okriashvili was 16 years old when he signed a first professional contract with Gagra. On 14 May 2010, he scored his first top-division goal in a 4–1 win over Tskhinvali.[1]

He signed with Russian Premier League side FC Krasnodar on 6 September 2016.[2] His time with Krasnodar was marred by injuries and he was released from his contract by mutual consent on 17 December 2018.[3] He signed with Anorthosis FC in 2019 but his relationship with Klavettas wasn't ideal. In May 2021, Okriashvili played 120 minutes in full in a Cypriot Cup final against Olympiakos Nicosia and clinched the title.[4]

He moved to APOEL on 3 June 2021.[5]

On 15 July 2022, Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors announced that Okriashvili had a signed contract.[6]

On 1 August 2022, Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors announced that Okriashvili's contract was officially terminated by mutual consent due to medical test issue.

In February 2023, he returned to the Georgian league to play for his boyhood club Gagra.[7]

On 6 April 2024, Dinamo Tbilisi announced the signing of Okriashvili on a contract until the end of the season.[8]
