Career

Benjamin Teidi started his professional career at the age of 18 at Georgian second division side Gagra. In 2015, Teidi joined Merani Martvili where he stayed for next four seasons. On 22 November 2016, he played full 90 minutes in the Georgian Cup final against Torpedo Kutaisi. [1]

In early 2019, Teidi signed for Dinamo Batumi who had just gained promotion to Erovnuli Liga. [2] Being a stable squad player during the following four years, Teidi contributed to Dinamo's title-laden success as they won the champion's title, [3] lifted the national cup and three times secured the silver medals.

As he was supposed to move to Hapoel Tel Aviv after the 2022 season, Teidi wrote a farewell letter to Dinamo's fans, [4] although two months later he made a surprise return to the club. [5]

Teidi secured two more champion's titles in successive seasons. Apart from winning the league with Dinamo Batumi for the second time in 2023, a year later he lifted the Champion's Shield as a member of Iberia 1999, who had signed him in September 2024. [6]

On December 23, 2024, Uzbekistan Super League side FC Navbahor announced the transfer of Benjamin Teidi.
