Sporting fan calls Kochorashvili lame, midfielder responds | OneFootball

Giorgi Kochorashvili starred in a curious moment on Sporting’s social media after appearing in a Club video juggling the ball. The Georgian international showed skill and control in a post that ended up prompting a reaction from the fanbase.

One supporter took the opportunity to joke with the midfielder, writing: "Kocho doesn’t even look lame...", an ironic reference to the difficulties the player has faced since arriving at Alvalade. Kochorashvili did not let the comment go unnoticed and replied in good spirits: "Hahahaha thanks, my friend 💚".

The interaction ended up generating several reactions, at a time when the footballer is trying to establish himself in the Lions’ squad. Adapting to Portuguese football turned out to be more demanding than expected, and the player was ultimately not a first-choice option.

The player’s first season was marked by a lack of consistency and difficulties in earning a place in the squad. Even so, he continues to work to gain prominence and to show, in training sessions, some of the qualities that led the Club to invest in his signing. Even so, he is in demand in Greece.

In the 2025/26 season for Sporting, Giorgi Kochorashvili - valued at €4 million - made 26 appearances: 18 in Liga Portugal Betclic, three in the Portuguese Cup, two in the Champions League, two in the League Cup and one in the Cândido de Oliveira Super Cup. In 972 minutes, the midfielder registered two assists.
