Giorgi Kvernadze (Georgian: გიორგი კვერნაძე; born 7 February 2003) is a Georgian professional footballer who plays as a left winger for Italian club Frosinone.
Kvernadze entered Saburtalo's academy at the age of nine: having come through the club's youth ranks, he played for the reserve team, in the national third tier, before making his first-team debut in the Erovnuli Liga at the age of 18.[2]
On 26 February 2022, Kvernadze joined Telavi on a loan for the rest of the 2022 season.[3] On 5 March 2022, he scored his first professional goal, in a 2–0 league win over Sioni Bolnisi.[4] Throughout the campaign, Kvernadze helped the team preserve their place in the top tier, having scored three goals.[5]
Shortly before the beginning of the 2023 season, Kvernadze signed for newly-promoted Liga 2 side Kolkheti Poti, before subsequently joining Dinamo Batumi on loan.
On 3 July 2023, Kvernadze officially joined Serie A side Frosinone on a season-long loan, with an option to buy.[6] [7] He made his official debut for the club on 11 August, coming on as a substitute for Giuseppe Caso in the second half of a 1–0 Coppa Italia win over Pisa.[8] [9] One week later, he also made his Serie A debut, coming on for Caso in the 67th minute of a 3–1 league defeat to Napoli.[10] Overall, he featured in five league matches for the team, who fought hard to avoid relegation.
On 2 July 2024, Frosinone announced that the sides signed a new four-year deal.[11]
After taking part in ten matches for U19s, Kvernadze became a regular player for the U21 team. He played in all ten games of Georgia's 2025 UEFA Championship qualifying campaign in addition to both play-offs against Croatia, in which his team prevailed on penalties.[12] Kvernadze scored in a 2–0 away win against Gibraltar on 26 March 2024, followed by another goal in a 3–0 home victory over Moldova on 5 September.[13]
