Then, the scouts arrived in Spain where Georgian football player participated in two sparring against the local U-17 team. After that, “Manchester City” sent official invitation about Arabuli to “Olimpi-Saburtalo” and Georgian player left for England.

According to the information of Kakha Chumburidze, Arabuli will train in age team of “City” till March 8. Then, he will return to Tbilisi and will wait for the answer of the English club.

Arabuli was tested in “Dinamo 2” Kiev in winter but when the English club sent the invitation to him, “Olimpi- Saburtalo” did not prevent him from using this chance.
