As “World Sport” already informed, Nika Chanturia, captain of “Lokomotive” Tbilisi and Georgian U-19 team was injured. Chanturia told us in the interview that he was treating his knee and was examined in Berlin. Levan Kobiashvili helped Nika in Germany.

Chanturia was not at the Portuguese tournament with U-19 team, because he was not fully recovered. Even now, he still cannot play full 90 minutes.

“I played once after the injury. At last I played 18-20 minutes in the match against “Dinamo” Batumi. I cannot play the full 90 minutes yet, but in 10 days I will be ready” – said Chanturia.

On May 25-30 elite-round of U-19 team’s European Championship will be held in Switzerland. The Georgian team will fight for the first place and making through to the final stage against Switzerland, Israel and Cyprus.
