Khomeriki is the three-time Umaglesi Liga winner with Dinamo Tbilisi and a member of the 100 club comprising the Georgian players with a hundred or more goals. He represented his country at the U21 team.
Playing career
[edit]Khomeriki spent most of his career at Dinamo Batumi in four tenures, making his debut on 1 March 1991 in a 3–0 win over Iveria. His first league goal came against Alazani on 30 October 1991.
In 1995, Khomeriki moved to Dinamo Tbilisi and won three successive league seasons. In 1998, he finished as the topscorer of the season. On 12 May 1998, Khomeriki scored his 100th goal to join the club as its 4th member.[1] He bagged a brace in the final game of his career against Kolkheti 1913 on 22 May 2005.

Managerial career

Initially, he led the team to a second-place finish which implied a return to European club football after an eighteen-year absence. Two years later, his team secured 3rd place.
