Guram Kashia, born on 4 July 1987 (age 39), is a Georgian central defender whose career is tied most clearly to Vitesse. Plenty of players pass through Arnhem; Kashia stayed long enough for the spell to become the main body of his work rather than a line on the CV.
At Vitesse he made 244 league appearances across eight seasons, scoring 20 league goals. His most productive league campaign came in 2015–2016, when he scored five times in 27 appearances – a useful return for a centre-half, without pretending he was there for the glamour end of the job.
According to Transfermarkt, his market value is around £213,000. Kashia’s profile is straightforward: a Georgian defender with a long, substantial Vitesse spell at the centre of his career.
