Temuri Ketsbaia

World Football News – After sacked by Olympiakos about two months ago, Temuri Ketsbaia has been appointed as coach of the Georgian national team.

Previous national team coach Hector Cuper parted company with the Georgian Football Federation earlier this week after collecting just three points from their qualifying group for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

The Georgian FA did not need too long to find their man, as Ketsbaia has swiftly been ushered in as his replacement. He has signed a deal until December 31, 2011 that comes into force on January 1 next year.

“I am happy to be given a chance to help Georgian football,” said the former international midfielder, who was capped 49 times, to uefa.com.

“We have decent resources and if we use them in a proper way we can play good football. I will not promise to guide the team to a major tournament in two, four or six years, but we will fight for it. I want a call-up to the national side to be a joy for all the players, not torture.”
