Dzhano Ananidze is widely known to fans of Russian football. Which is not surprising, because he has been playing in the Premier League for a long time. However, his career can be described in more detail.
early years
Dzhano Ananidze was born in 1992, on October 10, in a city called Kobuleti. It has a mixed origin. His father is Georgian and his mother is Russian. And sport, one might say, in Jano's blood. His father, Amiran Ananidze, was first a playing football player, and then became a coach. It was he who instilled in the boy a love of sports. The young midfielder said that his father always repeated to him - since he chose football, he should go all the way. And, by the way, it was Ananidze Sr. who trained his son. In one of his interviews, Jano talked about how his father taught him coinage. Amiran put the ball into the potato net. And he tied it with a rope to the neck of his son. And when he hit him, the ball bounced back.
And the boy studied at Dynamo Tbilisi. Then they noticed him. And invited to play in Dynamo Kiev. There he spent a year and a half, after which he was expelled from the club. And for a very interesting reason. The fact is that the midfielder was invited to play for the national team, and the Dynamo leadership flatly refused to let the player go to the training camp. So Jano Ananidze showed character and remained in Georgia without the approval of the club.
Relocation to Russia
In 2007, representatives of Moscow Spartak saw Ananidze playing football. Jano liked them. By the way, they noticed him at the match of the Russian national team against the Georgian team. Soon the young man was invited to view the youth squad. At the trial match, he scored two goals, which gave him a pass to Spartak. The contract was concluded. But it was not so easy to do. The club could not conclude a contract with a minor citizen of another state. The boy’s family, having heard about this, without thinking twice, moved to Russia, which immediately resolved the problem.
So Jano, since 2007, is part of Spartak. And since 2009, he began to play for the main team, leaving the youth team. By the way, the debut was very successful. It took place on July 15, in a match against Krasnodar, held in the framework of the Cup of Russia. In the last, 90th minute of the game, soccer player Jano Ananidze scored a goal. So in the main team he was already in a week.
Further success
The Georgian midfielder showed excellent abilities, so he was interested in Milan, Juventus, Sevilla and Arsenal. But neither the club nor Jano wanted to consider any proposals. The midfielder has repeatedly said in an interview that he loves Moscow and wants to buy an apartment in the capital.
But still, one day he had to leave for a year in Rostov. The Don club rented a football player for the season, so on July 3, 2013, Jano joined the team. By the way, the season turned out to be very successful. 8 assists and three goals - the best result of a player for all time playing in the Premier League.
When Ananidze returned to Moscow, he didn’t get to the base. But he went out on the field regularly. And although there were rumors about his transfer to another club, he continues to play in Spartak. By the way, before the start of the 2016/17 season, the midfielder took himself the 7th number, instead of the 49th. Kirill Kombarov left the club, so that the "seven" was freed.
