Giorgi Kochorashvili, a Georgian international midfielder, has transferred from Sporting to Sevilla, a move confirmed by the Spanish club. Kochorashvili played for Sporting for one season, having been announced by the 'lions' in July 2025, following a stint at Levante in Spain.

During his time at Sporting, Kochorashvili made 26 appearances under coach Rui Borges. The player played an important role in the team, but his move to Sevilla marks a new phase in his career.

The duration of the contract with Sevilla is four seasons, as reported by various sources. This transfer represents a return to Spanish football for the player, who had a significant journey at Levante before joining Sporting.

Several publications, including Notícia ao Minuto and RTP, confirmed the transfer, indicating that the move was recently formalized. The decision to leave Sporting was made after evaluating his performance from last season.

In a statement, Sevilla confirmed the signing and highlighted Kochorashvili's qualities as an addition to their squad. The Spanish club hopes that the player will contribute significantly to their campaign in the upcoming season.

This transfer comes at a time when various player movements are shaping the futures of teams in European leagues, but attention remains focused on the abilities that Kochorashvili can bring to Sevilla.
