Hektor Idrizaj (born 15 April 1989) is an Albanian professional footballer who plays as a defender for AF Elbasani in the Kategoria e Parë.[2]

Club career[edit]

Early career[edit]

Idrizaj joined the youth setup of local side Flamurtari Vlorë as an 11 year old in 2000, and he progressed through the ranks at the club and played at under-17 and under-19 level, before leaving in 2008 to sign his first professional contract with Bylis Ballsh. He made his professional debut on 14 September 2008 in a league game against Elbasani, where he came on as a 20th-minute substitute for injured Roland Nenaj in what would be his only appearance in a season that saw Bylis Ballsh get relegated from the Albanian Superliga.

Skënderbeu Korçë[edit]

On 24 June 2016, Idrizaj was presented as the new player of Skënderbeu Korçë; he joined on a three-year contract, taking squad number 28.[3] His competitive debut began on 1 October in the championship matchday 5 in Skënderbeu's 3–0 route of against Vllaznia Shkodër.[4] He opened his scoring account four days later in the returning leg of 2016–17 Albanian Cup first round against Butrinti Sarandë which was won a record 8–0.[5] He spent the majority of his spell on bench, making only 11 appearances between league and cup, collecting 711 minutes in total as Skënderbeu finished runner-up in cup and failed to win the championship for the first time in six years.[6][7] In June 2017, he terminated the contract with the club by mutual consent and become a free agent.[8]

Kamza[edit]

On 30 July 2017, Idrizaj completed a transfer to newly promoted top flight side Kamza by penning a contract for the 2017–18 season.[9] He made his competitive debut in the opening week of championship on 9 September versus Kukësi,[10] and became a regular starter afterwards.
