Admir Teli (born 2 June 1981) is an Albanian retired professional footballer who played as a defender. He spent most of his career in Albania and Azerbaijan, where he collected more than 400 appearances by representing Vllaznia Shkodër and Qarabağ, winning six major trophies in the process.

Club career

In summer 2008, Teli along with two other players from Vllaznia Shkoder moved to Turkey after they had been spotted by the Turkish club Gençlerbirliği, along with Gilman Lika, Teli got a contract with the reserve team of Gençlerbirliği, Hacettepe Spor Kulübü, for whom he played in 16 Süper Lig matches.[1] But the young Albanian striker Xhevahir Sukaj managed to get a contract with the parent team Gençlerbirliği.
In January 2009, he has signed a two-year contract with Azerbaijan Premier League team FK Qarabağ. Teli left Qarabağ at the end of the 2014–15 season.[2]
