Career Patsatsia started his professional career at Liga 2 club Merani Martvili where he spent five seasons. At age 17, he made a debut as a substitute in a 5–0 away win against Guria.
On 27 November 2018, Patsatsia scored his first goal in a 2–0 home win over Merani Tbilisi. Around the same time, he took part in two matches for Georgia U19s in 2019 European Championship qualifiers..
After the 2018 season, Patsatsia was loaned to Gagra. In early 2020, the player rejoined Merani who made an unsuccessful attempt to advance to the Erovnuli Liga via playoffs a year later.
In January 2023, Merani announced that their head coach and twelve players, including Patsatsia, would leave the club following a financial crisis. The player moved to Shukura Kobuleti and in his very first top-league game netted from the penalty spot against Dinamo Batumi. He bagged an equalizer in the second match as well against the same opponents, although in both cases Shukura failed to claim a point. Overall, he scored seven times for the bottom-placed team.
Patsatsia's performance on the pitch drew attention from Dinamo Batumi who signed him during the summer transfer window.
The last of the three goals that Patsatsia scored for his new club was a 57m wonder strike from his own half, which sealed not only a 3–0 victory over Telavi, but also champion's fate in favour of Dinamo Batumi. At the end of this season, Patsatsia was announced the winner of the Goal of the Year award.

In July 2025, Patsatsia moved to Albanian side FK Tirana on a two-year contract, although left the club after a half season.
In February 2026, he returned to the Georgian top league and signed for Meshakhte.
