Etrit Fadil Berisha[2] (Albanian pronunciation: [ɛtɾit bɛɾiʃa];[stress?] born 10 March 1989) is an Albanian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Italian club Atalanta and the Albanian national team.

Berisha began his career at local club KF 2 Korriku as a youngster, as well also playing youth football with KF KEK before joining Kalmar FF in 2008, initially as part of their youth setup. He was promoted to the first team in 2010 and soon made his debut for the club and establishing himself as a first team player, making 14 league appearances in his debut season. He cemented his position as the club's first choice keeper during the 2011 Allsvenskan campaign, helping his side achieve a mid table finish as well as reach the 2011 Svenska Cupen Final, which he did not play in and which his side lost. He scored his first professional goal from the penalty spot in a Europa League qualifier against Northern Irish side Cliftonville on 12 July 2012, and he scored another penalty just a month later in the Allsvenskan against Helsingborgs. He remained the club's first choice goalkeeper and his performances earned him the Allsvenskan goalkeeper of the year award for the 2013 campaign that saw him score twice from the penalty spot and help his side achieve a fourth-place finish in the league.

In the summer of 2013 Italian club Chievo announced that they had a pre-contract agreement in place with Berisha, but he soon joined their Serie A rivals Lazio on a four-year deal for, which caused controversy and led to the player being faced with a six-month suspension, although the case was eventually dropped against him. He competes with Italy international Federico Marchetti for the first choice goalkeeper spot at Lazio, and neither has made the position entirely their own since Berisha's arrival. More recently Lazio's head coach Stefano Pioli has preferred Marchetti, and Berisha's playing time has suffered as a result as he has been limited to fewer appearances than his first season with the club.

Berisha is from Kosovo but is able to represent Albania through his Albanian ethnicity, and he was first called up to the Albanian national team in 2012 by Italian head coach Gianni De Biasi where he made his international debut against Iran on 27 May 2012. He was initially a backup goalkeeper for Samir Ujkani, but after just a few games he became Albania's first choice goalkeeper, with Ujkani switching allegiances to represent Kosovo in 2014. He played an instrumental role in Albania qualifying for its first major international tournament, as they reached Euro 2016, becoming a fan favourite in the process.

Club career

Early career

Berisha was born in Pristina, in present-day Kosovo, to ethnic Albanian parents. He began his youth career at age of 8 in local side KF 2 Korriku as a midfielder before switching to a goalkeeper.[3] At 2 Korriku he remained until the club ceased operations during the Kosovo War between 1998 and 1999. He returned to the club after the war once the club was reorganised. The club was experiencing financial difficulties so the youth players, including Berisha, moved to KF KEK in nearby Obilić/Kastriot in 2004, where he would remain until 2 Korriku was able to take in youth players once again in 2007. He soon began training with the first team at 2 Korriku and he was also invited to train with FK Bashkimi in Kumanovo, Macedonia by fellow Kosovar Albanian Bylbyl Sokoli, who was the club's head coach at the time, in order to enjoy better facilities than those found in Kosovo.

Kalmar

Berisha went on trial at Swedish side Kalmar FF in 2007, and this was made possible by Albert Bunjaki, who was the head coach of the unofficial Kosovo national team as well as being part of the coaching staff at Kalmar. His trial was successful and he was offered a contract by the club, and he initially joined the under-19s side at Kalmar in January 2008 as he was considered too young and inexperienced for first team football at the time and was later during the 2009 season loaned out for a short stint with local Division II club Lindsdals IF to gain first team experience.[4] He impressed in the youth side and was eventually promoted to the first team ahead of the 2010 Allsvenskan, where he was initially regarded as backup to veteran goalkeeper and Kalmar legend, Petter Wastå.

His first taste of first team football came in the first game of the season on 13 March 2010 against IFK Göteborg, where he was an unused substitute in the 3–0 home loss.[5] He remained on the bench until the 9th game week on 28 April where he was handed his professional debut by Nanne Bergstrand against Örebro SK, in a game which his side won 4–1.[6] He experienced a run of 6 games in goal for Kalmar, and his side went unbeaten during these games. Towards the end of the season he cemented his spot as the first choice goalkeeper with some impressive displays, losing just once during the 14 league games he played in, and keeping 7 clean sheets in the process. He also featured in the semi-final of the Svenska Cupen against Hammarby, with the game going to penalties following a 2–2 draw. Kalmar ended up losing 6–5 on penalties, as Berisha failed to save any penalties.

Berisha debuted for Kalmar on 28 April 2010 against Örebro SK and won 4–1. After making fourteen appearances in his debuting season, he became Kalmar's starting goalkeeper. Berisha scored his first goal for Kalmar against Cliftonville in the Europa League qualification rounds and scored his first goal in the Allsvenskan against champions Helsingborgs IF, scoring from the penalty spot in the 38th minute in 2012. But the game resulted in Berisha's worst ever result, with the final score at 7–2.[7] Berisha became a penalty taker at Kalmar and would score all of his goals from the penalty spot.

Berisha played his last game for Kalmar against Halmstads BK on 1 September 2013 and scored from a penalty to give his team the 1–0 victory.[8]

During his time at Kalmar, Club Manager Svante Samuelsson stated that Etrit had developed into a very good goalkeeper during his time at Kalmar, and had worked very determinedly along with the skilled goalkeeper trainer Donald Arvidsson.[8] Berisha was liked by the fans, especially in the 2013 season as he was the main factor in keeping the club at fifth place with a chance for winning the league.[9]

Lazio

On 2 September 2013, Etrit Berisha officially signed for S.S. Lazio in the summer transfer period.[8][10]

During his debut season for Lazio, Berisha was named as the second choice behind Federico Marchetti by the coach Vladimir Petković. He managed to make his first debut on 7 November 2013 in a 2013–14 UEFA Europa League group stage match against Apollon Limassol where it resulted as a 2–1 victory for Lazio and Berisha played as a starter to complete the full 90-minutes match although Federico Marchetti was present on the bench.[11] His impressive performance convinced the coach Vladimir Petković to give him another starting place in the next Europa League fixture against Legia Warszawa three weeks later, and Berisha managed to keep the clean-sheet by making some notable saves to help his team to take an away 2–0 win.[12] Once again Berisha played in the Europa League for the third consecutive match, played on 12 December 2013 against Trabzonspor, keeping also another clean sheet in the 0–0 draw.[13] In December 2013 the first choice Federico Marchetti got injured and Berisha gained the chance to make his league debut on 6 January 2014 against Inter Milan under a new coach Edoardo Reja which was appointed on 4 January 2014. Against Inter Milan Berisha played the full 90-minutes match and kept a clean sheet to help Lazio to win 1–0.[14] One week later on 11 January 2014, Berisha played another full match and kept another clean sheet against Bologna, match finished in the goalless draw.[15] His first match in the Coppa Italia came on 14 January 2014 against Parma, a match which Lazio won 2–1.[16] He managed to play also in the next match in Coppa Italia against Napoli valid for the quarter-finals where Lazio lost 1–0 to be eliminated from the competition.

Even though the first choice Marchetti returned from injury, the new coach Edoardo Reja preferred to give Berisha a place in the starting line-up, and Berisha played another full 90 minute match in a 1–1 draw against Juventus on 25 January 2014 in which Federico Marchetti was left on the bench.[17] Berisha continued his impressive performances where on 2 February 2014 he kept another clean sheet against Chievo Verona won 2–0 by Lazio.[18] The peak of his career at Lazio was the Derby della Capitale match against Roma on 8 February 2014; Berisha played the full 90-minutes match and kept the clean sheet as the match finished 0–0 and he was voted as the Man of the match.[19] Then in the Europa League Lazio played against Ludogorets Razgrad in the rounf of 32 and Berisha was present to play the full 90-minutes match which finished in the 0–1 loss.[20]

Having played regularly for 8 matches in total, in March Berisha lost his starting place to Marchetti for 3 consecutive matches remaining on the bench. However, after these 3 matches, Marchetti then had injuries and soon after Berisha returned to play for two matches, except for a temporary return of Marchetti against Parma on 30 March 2014, Berisha played in the entire 7 remaining matches. On 6 April 2014, Berisha kept a clean sheet in the 2–0 victory against Sampdoria where he played the full 90 minutes.[21] Another clean sheet he made it on 27 April 2014 in the important away 0–2 victory against Livorno.[22] Berisha played in the last match of the season on 18 May 2014, keeping the clean sheet in the victory 1–0 against Bologna with a late penalty score by Lucas Biglia in the 4th minute of stoppage time.[23]

Berisha finished the 2013–14 season mading in total 23 full 90-minute matches, including 2 in Coppa Italia and 4 in the Europa League and Lazio were ranked in the 9th position of the 2013–14 Serie A. Berisha also was voted as the best foreign goalkeeper of the year and was included in the best eleven of foreign players of the 2013–14 Serie A season.[24]

2014–15 season

In his second season with Lazio, Berisha was named the second choice by newly appointed coach Stefano Pioli, again behind Federico Marchetti, but however was named the first choice for the 2014–15 Coppa Italia. Berisha kept the clean-sheet in his debut of the 2014–15 new season at the match valid for 2014–15 Coppa Italia against Bassano Virtus, finished in the 7–0 victory.[25] He started the 2014–15 Serie A season again with Lazio playing a full 90-minutes on 31 August 2014 in the opening match against Milan, which finished in the 3–1 loss.[26] Although the coach Stefano Pioli had preferred Federico Marchetti as a first choice during the season, Berisha was enough with only one match suspension of Marchetti to show his impressive form, as he played the full 90-minutes match on 15 February 2015 against Udinese and kept the clean-sheet to be decisive for the 1–0 victory of Lazio with a penalty goal from Antonio Candreva. But it wasn't over yet cause he was selected by Goal.com in the best eleven of the 23rd week Serie A.[27]

During the entire season Berisha managed to play in total 10 matches where he kept 4 clean-sheets and to be notable for Lazio to secure the 3rd place rank, which resulted a place in the 2015–16 UEFA Champions League. In the Coppa Italia, Berisha played the entire 7 matches conceding only 2 goals until the final against the Serie A and Coppa Italia eventual champions, Juventus, where Lazio lost only in the extra-time with a notable goal of Alessandro Matri in the 97th minute.[28]

Atalanta

Following the Lazio's directors decision to keep Marchetti as a starting goalkeeper, Berisha decided to move at Atalanta B.C. for a year loan with buying option, to gain the permanent starting eleven.[29][30] At Atalanta he made a very impressive season where he kept 11 clean-sheets and an amazing performance during the entire season was the key to Atalanta's success of reaching the 5th place by qualifying for the 2017–18 UEFA Europa League.[31]

He kept a clean sheet against the eventual third place team Napoli on 26 February 2017 with several decisive saves helping Atalanta to take an away win at Stadio San Paolo.[32] Berisha kept the third consecutive clean sheet on 5 March 2017 against Fiorentina mading several notable saves including 1 crucial save in the first half as Atalanta took a goalless draw which came after 5 consecutive wins.[33][34]
