Personal

[edit]

Born in Bobrov in Russia, Zhividze and his family moved to the United States when he was 13-years old.[1]

Career

[edit]

Youth, College & Amateur

[edit]

After moving to the United States, Zhividze joined the academy team of Portland Timbers.[2]

Zhividze began playing college soccer at Concordia University in Oregon in 2013, where he played for two seasons.[3] In 2015, he transferred to Corban University, missing the 2015 season due to CCC transfer rules.[4]

While at college, Zhividze played in the Evergreen Premier League with Vancouver Victory in both 2015[5] and 2017,[6] as well as with USL PDL sides Charlotte Eagles,[7] in 2016, and Portland Timbers U23s, in 2017.[8]

Following college, Zhividze continued to play in the PDL, now rebranded as the USL League Two, with Portland Timbers U23s in 2018[9] and 2019.[10]

Professional

[edit]

In August 2019, Zhividze joined NISA side Philadelphia Fury ahead of the league's inaugural season.[11][1] However, after just one game against Miami FC, the club dropped out of the Fall 2019 season, with plans to return in Spring 2020.[12]

Zhividze landed with rival NISA side Stumptown Athletic following Philadelphia's hiatus.[13]
