Mobility
Never quick off the mark and has lost a step past 30. (conf 0.6)
Below-average recovery pace; exposed when defending high lines against fast forwards. (conf 0.6)

Strong body uses frame well to protect the ball from pressing forwards. (conf 0.6)
Clean enough clearances and driven passes, nothing refined. (conf 0.55)
Distribution
Reliable circulation to full-backs and pivots from years as Spartak's build-up starter. (conf 0.6)
Occasional accurate diagonals to switch play, though inconsistent under pressure. (conf 0.55)
Not part of his game beyond set-piece deliveries returned into the box. (conf 0.6)

Does not take free-kicks or penalties. (conf 0.6)

Defense

High interception and block volume; throws his body into everything. (conf 0.6)
Experienced organiser of a back line, though prone to rash moments. (conf 0.6)
Mental
Generally calm on the ball but combustible temperament brings avoidable cards. (conf 0.55)
Veteran reading of danger offset by occasional impulsive challenges. (conf 0.55)
Committed leader who defends every ball like a captain should. (conf 0.6)
Resilience
Serious knee injury in 2018 cost him a World Cup; durable enough since. (conf 0.6)

Scouting Report & Player Insights
Georgi Dzhikiya is a veteran Russian centre-back now with Antalyaspor in the Turkish Süper Lig after many years as Spartak Moscow's captain and defensive leader. He is a physical, aggressive stopper who thrives in aerial duels and blocked shots rather than pace or elegant distribution. His fiery temperament and vocal leadership define him as much as his defending, and at 32 he offers experience and organisation rather than upside.
Long-serving captain of Spartak Moscow and a regular Russia international.
Missed the 2018 World Cup on home soil after suffering a serious knee ligament injury months before the tournament.
Won the Russian Cup with Spartak Moscow.
