Omari Mikhaylovich Tetradze (Russian:Омари Михайлович Тетрадзе,Georgian:ომარ თეთრაძე,Greek:Ομάρι Τετράντζε; born 13 October 1969 asOmari Mikhaylovich Osipov) is a Georgian-Russian professionalfootball manager and former player who is the manager of Russian clubUfa. During his playing career, he played as adefender ormidfielder, and representedRussia at international level.
Tetradze was born in Velispiri,Georgian SSR as Omari Mikhaylovich Osipov (the original surname of his family was Iosifidis) toethnic Greek parents. At the age of 18, he decided to change surname when he turned professional. It was the run-up to theUSSR breakup and the nationalist sentiments inGeorgia were strong enough to affect the young player's career. Because of that, Omari took his maternal grandmother'sGeorgian surname – Tetradze. Later he considered restoring his original surname, but decided it would cause too many problems.
At club level, Tetradze played forDinamo Tbilisi,FC Dynamo Moscow,Alania Vladikavkaz (where he won a Russian league championship medal in 1995),AS Roma, andPAOK FC (Greece).
Tetradze played forRussia at international level, and appeared atWorld Cup 1994 andEuro 1996. At the latter tournament, he played superbly in each of Russia's three games despite the team's poor results, and was arguably the bestright-back in the competition.
After finishing his playing career in 2005, Tetradze became an assistant coach atKrylia Sovetov Samara. He was later the manager ofAnzhi Makhachkala. He threatened to resign the post in September 2008 following a 1–0 defeat againstBelgorod, but subsequently stayed on as manager. Anzhi finally returned toRussian Premier League for 2010 season after finishing champion in First Division. On 19 March 2010 the Coach has quit Anzhi Makhachkala.
In September 2014, Tetradze and his coaching staff leftFC Zhetysu by mutual consent.[3]
On 30 May 2016, Tetradze was appointed as manager ofFC Tobol.[4] He left Tobol by mutual consent on 27 June 2017.[5]
In the early 1990s he received Greek citizenship but later renounced it.[6] Tetradze considers himself to be a Greek by ethnicity, but says Georgia is his homeland.
