Their plan is to purchase Goglichidze in the January transfer window, but leave him on loan at Empoli until the end of the season so that he can continue to gain valuable experience.

He was sent off 31 minutes into Empoli’s 3-0 Serie A defeat to Inter on October 30.

The player has one senior cap for Georgia, which he earned in September 2024 in a Nations League victory over the Czech Republic.
