Giorgi Kochorashvili, a 27-year-old Georgian midfielder, has received an offer to join Getafe and thus return to LaLiga on loan this summer. Sporting de Portugal has rejected this proposal as they aim to recoup the fixed €5.5 million they paid to Levante in 2025.

The Portuguese club does not consider the Georgian international a key player for the upcoming season but is also unwilling to facilitate his departure on loan without ensuring revenue. Their priority is to find a buyer for a permanent transfer.

The difference between the two clubs lies in the structure of the deal. Getafe is looking to strengthen its midfield without a significant initial investment, while Sporting aims to recover the fixed cost of his acquisition.

Giorgi Kochorashvili Aims to Return to LaLiga

Joining Getafe would allow Giorgi Kochorashvili to return to a league he is familiar with from his time at Levante. The midfielder arrived in Spain in 2019 and also had spells at Girona's reserve team and Castellón before establishing himself in Levante's first team.

His experience in Spanish football aligns with Getafe's needs as they reshape their midfield during this transfer window. The Madrid-based club has proposed a loan deal, but as of now, they have not tabled a purchase offer that meets the conditions set by Lisbon.

Kochorashvili is under contract with Sporting until June 30, 2030, with an €80 million release clause. This contractual protection allows the Portuguese club to stand firm and await new offers in the coming weeks.

His first season in Portugal ended with 26 official appearances and two assists. His playing time was limited within the squad rotation, opening up the possibility of his departure from the club a year after his arrival.

Sporting de Portugal Insists on a Permanent Transfer

Sporting de Portugal paid Levante a fixed €5.5 million, with an additional €2 million tied to performance-related objectives. The deal also secured Levante 12.5% of any profit from a future sale.

These conditions explain the refusal to entertain a simple loan. A temporary move would not allow recuperation of the initial investment and would postpone the resolution to a later transfer window, where the player would still have years left on his contract.

Currently, Giorgi Kochorashvili's market value stands at around €4 million, below the fixed amount sought by the Lisbon club. This disparity will be one of the issues that the interested clubs will need to resolve.

Apart from Getafe, other Spanish teams have been monitoring the Georgian international's situation. Celta de Vigo, Girona, and Rayo Vallecano have been linked to the midfielder, but there is no confirmed purchase proposal yet.

The next step depends on Getafe transforming their loan offer into a deal including a mandatory purchase or presenting a definitive transfer. Unless a proposal close to the €5.5 million mark materializes, Sporting will keep Giorgi Kochorashvili's exit on hold.
