Manager: Willy Sagnol

Manager Profile

A Bayern Munich and France regular in his playing career, Willy Sagnol was a somewhat left-field managerial appointment for Georgia in 2021 after an unremarkable record coaching at club level. It turned out to be an inspired move, however, as the 47-year-old guided the nation to their first ever major tournament.

Scouting Report

Georgia’s hopes of getting out of the group rest on the shoulders of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who is the undoubted star player for his country. The 23-year-old has gone from strength-to-strength over the last two seasons for Napoli, putting up impressive numbers in both goals and assists, and the Crusaders’ hopes of getting out of the group will hinge on how he performs.
