Irakli Bugridze (Georgian: ირაკლი ბუღრიძე, romanized: irak'li bughridze; born 3 January 1998) is a Georgian professional footballer who plays for Kazakhstan top-division club Kyzylzhar.

Career[edit]

Bugridze started his both youth and senior careers at Locomotive Tbilisi. Due to lack of playing time, in 2018 he moved to Chikhura. In an opening game of the season, Bugridze contributed to a 6–1 demolition of Kolkheti 1913 with his first senior league goal.[1] In the summer, he played in all four matches of Chikhura's European campaign.

In January 2019, Bugridze left Chikhura to sign a 1,5-year contract with Belgian second-division club Beerschot, [2] although after making ten appearances he joined Dinamo Tbilisi a year later.[3]

Following a season-long tenure at Dila Gori in 2021, Bugridze spent next two seasons at Torpedo Kutaisi.[4] Being mostly a starting line-up player, he took part in 31 league games in 2023 and with eight goals finished as the second-top scorer behind Giorgi Arabidze. Bugridze also netted two goals in four UEFA Conference League appearances,[5] including a winner against Aktobe.[6]

On 12 February 2024, Kazakhstan Premier League side Kyzylzhar announced the signing of Bugridze.[7]
