Oyunculuk kariyeri
Kipiani; Tiflis, Gürcistan SSC'de doğdu. Kariyerinin ilk aşamalarında 35. Okul için oynamaya başladı.[7] Kipiani, 1967'de Dinamo Tbilisi için oynamaya davet edildi. Yaralanmalar nedeniyle, sadece iki sezon boyunca tek bir maça katılabildi. Böylece Kipiani, Tiflis merkezli başka bir kulüp olan Lokomotif Tiflis için oynamaya gitti.
Lokomotif ile başarılı bir sezonun ardından Kipiani, Gavril Kachalin tarafından tekrar Dinamo için oynamaya davet edildi.[7] Bu arada Kipiani, Lokomotif için oynarken, gelecekteki menajeri Nodar Akhalkatsi ile çalıştı ve menajeri altında daha güçlü ve başarılı kulüplerden Dinamo Tiflis'in kilit isimlerinden biri hâline geldi -sadece Sovyet futbolunun en üst seviyesinde değil, aynı zamanda 1970'lerin sonunda ve 1980'lerin başında da uluslararası bir seviyedeydi.[8]Ulusal şampiyona dönemde,[9] en önemli sonuçların yanı sıra yerel,[10] uluslararası tanınırlık ve çeşitli prestijli futbol turnuvalarında kayda değer başarıları gerçekleşti.[11][12][13]
1975 ve 1982 arasındaki dönemde Kipiani, Manuchar Machaidze, Aleksandre Chivadze, Vladimir Gutsaev ve Ramaz Shengelia gibi oyuncuların yanı sıra Dinamo Tbilisi'nin önde gelen ve oy birliğiyle tanınan liderlerinden biriydi. Gürcü takımının Liverpool,[14]Inter Milan,[15][16]Napoli,[17]West Ham United,[18]Feyenoord ve diğerleri gibi futbol kulüplerine karşı etkileyici başarısı, esas olarak kişisel ve profesyonel yetenekleri sayesinde oldu. Kipiani'nin diğer oyuncular ile arasındaki önemli farklar: ünlü ve seçkin oyuncu olduğu futbol sahasındaki örnek ve eksiksiz etkileşimleriyle benzersiz oyun yetenekleri ve bireysel beceriler, mükemmel oyun vizyonu.[19][20][21][22][23]
Kipiani'ye Dünya Kupası finallerinde oynama şansı verilmedi. Birçok kişi zirvesinin 1982'de olduğunu düşünüyor, ancak İspanya Dünya Kupası'nı kaçırdı ve 26 Nisan'da (4. tur) FC Kuban Krasnodar'a karşı ağır bir bacak yaralanması nedeniyle oynamayı tamamen bıraktı.

The domestic football league of the old USSR was a vast, vibrant, and powerful competition, containing as it did clubs such as the Moscow giants Dynamo, Spartak, CSKA – and occasionally Torpedo – as well as influential teams from the republics, like the Dynamos of Kiev, Tbilisi, and Minsk. Evidently, the league would have been exceptionally strong and closely contested – it was so strong, in fact, that it rose to second place in UEFA’s league rankings.

Of course, you qualified for the UEFA Kupa Galipleri Kupası and then played against Dinamo Tblisi. Was that the most difficult game you've ever had? Yeah. I think we played them at a stage where we hadn't lost at Upton Park for 10 months so we were pretty formidable at home. All of a sudden, we were playing this Georgian side who had a mid-season break and hadn't played any football for six weeks. I think we went in there thinking these are there for the taking. They had players like David Kipiani in midfield and Aleksandr Chivadze, who was the captain. Ramaz Shengelia was another one. After about 20 minutes we thought, "Whoa, whoa, what's going on here?" They just totally outplayed us and gave us a footballing lesson. We lost it 4-1. We were sitting in the back afterwards. There were about eight or nine of us in there and none of us really spoke. We just sat shocked and numb because we couldn't believe what had happened to us. There was a degree of naivety and complacency, which we proved when we won 1-0 in the return leg. We were an emerging side but they were a completely different level to anyone we'd ever met.

Tbilisi were an outstanding team and the fact that the Russian domestic season had only just resumed after their winter break meant we had not seen them play. We had to settle for some film clips of their epic 4-2 aggregate triumph against Liverpool in the European Cup the previous season and their 5-0 aggregate win over Waterford in the Cup Winner's Cup a few months earlier. Technically they were a wonderful side and in the first leg at Upton Park attacked us with breathtaking pace. It was an education to watch them and I was hugely impressed by the movement and individual skills of players such as Aleksandre Chivadze, Vitali Daraselia, David Kipiani and Ramaz Schengeliya. They remain one of the finest European teams I've seen and it was a shame that a broken leg ended Kipiani's career prematurely.

After establishing himself at the senior level Kipiani returned to Dinamo and came to dictate their play for the following decade. In 1977 he was voted Soviet Footballer Of The Year.
