Eduard Kaçaçi (born 9 January 1967) is an Albanian retired footballer who played as a forward for Partizani Tirana.
Defection
Kaçaçi, alongside national team members Lorenc Leskaj and Genc Ibro, disappeared from the national team squad in March 1991 in Geneva on their way to Paris to play a European Championship qualifier against France.[3] At the time, Albania was still ruled by the communists. The players were later reported to have sought asylum in Switzerland.[4]
