On 1 July 2019, Lokomotiv announced that Kvaratskhelia had left the club after his loan expired.[3] Following that, Lokomotiv Moscow manager Yuri Semin said he was very disappointed after failing to agree on a permanent transfer with Kvaratskhelia as Semin considered him extremely talented.[4]

Kvaratskhelia then netted his second for Rubin on 30 November 2019, another late equaliser in added time to Akhmat Grozny.
International career
Kvaratskhelia made his debut for Georgia national team on 7 June 2019 in a Euro 2020 qualifier against Gibraltar, as a starter.[6]
