Bayern Confirm Interest After 16-Year-Old Tornike Kvaratskhelia Trains at Campus

FIFA rules block a permanent move until he turns 18.

Overview

  • Sporting director Christoph Freund confirmed the Georgian winger trained at Bayern’s Campus and called him a talent the club will keep assessing.
  • Reports from Bild, cited by multiple outlets, say he played a trial for Bayern’s Under-17s and scored while standing out for his technique.
  • He remains a Dinamo Tbilisi player and has recently been included in the club’s senior setup, with no transfer agreed.
  • Because he is a non‑EU minor, FIFA regulations do not allow an international transfer to Bayern until he turns 18.
  • Bayern are weighing a stopgap through their Red&Gold partner network, with options such as Grasshoppers Zurich or LAFC, and a recent blueprint in Bara Sapoko Ndiaye’s route via Gambinos Stars Africa.
