Club

Tskhadadze's club career started in 1986 in Dinamo Tbilisi. He became known in Western Europe with German team Eintracht Frankfurt, who he joined in 1992. After a couple of successful seasons he gradually found himself struggling for a first team place, and in 1997 he joined Alania Vladikavkaz. After a short time he was bought by English team Manchester City, where he teamed up with fellow Georgians Murtaz Shelia (a former teammate) and Georgi Kinkladze. Tskhadadze's time at the Manchester club was fraught with injury forcing the team to buy other central defenders such as Andy Morrison. In March 2000 he was released from the club. He then played for Lokomotiv Tbilisi and Anzhi Makhachkala until he retired and was appointed head coach for Dinamo Tbilisi.
International career

In 1992, he played 6 caps and scored 1 goal for CIS, including one appearance at the Euro 92. The defender later became a part of the recently formed Georgian national team, and played 25 matches in total, captaining the side. His only goal for Georgia came in a 1997 World Cup Qualifier against Poland, and his last match was played on 30 May 1998 against Russia.
Managerial

In December 2014, he was appointed as the new coach of Georgia.

On 7 April 2016, Tskhadadze was appointed as manager of FC Kairat. Tskhadadze resigned as manager of Kairat on 21 July 2017 following their elimination from the Europa League.
Personal life

Tskhadadze is the father of current Georgian and Locomotive Tbilisi player Bachana Tskhadadze.
