Vasfi Samimi Visoka (1908–1981) was an Albanian footballer, writer, doctor and veterinarian.[1] He was the first Albanian footballer to play competitively abroad, as he was part of the Fenerbahçe side for the 1927–1928 campaign.[2] Upon his return to Albania he played for both Sportklub Vlorë and Sportklub Tiranë. He was part of the Sportklub Tiranë squad between 1930 and 1931, but was not a regular member of the team because of his activities outside of football.[3]
