Enkeleid Dobi (born 23 May 1975) is an Albanian professional football manager and former player who is the current head coach of Teuta. He played for clubs in Albania, Croatia, Slovenia, Poland and France, as well as the Albania national team.
Dobi played as forward for NK Varteks in the Croatian First League.[1] He played for Zagłębie Lubin and Górnik Zabrze in the Polish Ekstraklasa during 2004.[2]
International career
He scored the second goal in his country's 2–0 victory against Bosnia and Herzegovina in November 1995, in what was Bosnia's first official match as an independent nation after affiliating with FIFA.[3] It was also his debut for Albania and he earned a total of 6 caps, scoring 1 goal. His final international was a February 2003 friendly match against Vietnam.[4]
Managerial career
After working as youth coach at Zagłębie Lubin's academy, Dobi took on his first managerial role on 12 January 2017, when he took charge of III liga club Górnik Polkowice.[5] He led the team for three-and-a-half years, taking them to II liga after winning group III of the 2018–19 III liga.[6]
On 30 July 2020, he signed a one-year contract with Polish I liga club Widzew Łódź.[7] With ten regular season games left to play, and Widzew placed one point short of a promotion play-off-qualifying position, he was dismissed on 13 April 2021.[8]
In September 2022, Dobi returned to Albania to manage Kategoria Superiore club Kukësi.[9] He left the club on 11 December 2022.[10]
On 5 September 2023, he was again appointed manager of recently relegated Górnik Polkowice.[11] After winning just one out of seven opening games of the 2024–25 season, Dobi was dismissed on 9 September 2024.[12]
