Nika Khorkheli (Georgian: ნიკა ხორხელი; born 9 September 2001) is a Georgian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Erovnuli Liga club Samgurali.

Club career

Khorkheli grew up at the Dinamo Tbilisi's academy. After several seasons spent at Dinamo-2, Gori and Spaeri, in early 2021 he joined Erovnuli Liga 2 club Sioni Bolnisi and helped them win the league in the same season. Khorkheli opened his goal-scoring account in the top tier in a 2–1 home win against Gagra on 3 April 2022. He finished the season as the team's topscorer with nine goals, although this circumstance did not prevent Sioni from relegation.

In December 2022, Khorkheli signed for Samgurali on a three-year deal and scored a brace in his debut game against Gagra on 26 February 2023.

On 5 February 2024, Khorkheli was loaned to Israeli Premier League club Beitar Jerusalem. He returned to Samgurali at half season to spend the rest of 2024 there.
