Iuri Tabatadze

Iberia 1999

Tabatadze entered a football school in Tbilisi at the age of 7 before joining Saburtalo four years later. He made his debut for the senior team as a second-half substitute in a 3–0 home win over Dila on 20 August 2019. Tabatadze opened his goal-scoring account in his very first full-time appearance for the team in which Saburtalo beat Locomotive 4–0 the next month. Following a 3–1 win in a cup final over the same opponents on 9 December 2019, Tabatadze won the first trophy of his career. In 2021, he netted a winner in another cup final as Saburtalo prevailed over Samgurali. The team secured the 3rd cup title two years later with Tabatadze taking part in all five ties. Tabatadze scored his first goal in a UEFA club competition in 2022. He equalized against Romanian club FCSB to give Saburtalo an aggregate lead, but his team conceded two late goals and crashed out of the 2nd round of UEFA Conference League. In January 2024, Tabatadze was among three Saburtalo players loaned to Slovak side ViOn Zlaté Moravce until the end of June. After his return to Saburtalo, now renamed as Iberia 1999, he won the first league title. In a final game of the season, Tabatadze featured in a Liga 2/3 play-off tie and helped the reserve team gain promotion to the 2nd division. In early 2025, Tabatadze topped the leading goalscorers' chart with five goals after the first part of the four-phase Erovnuli Liga season was completed and received the Player of the Month award…
