Elvist Ciku (born 16 August 1986) is an Albanian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder. Besides Albania, he has played in Greece, Poland and the Czech Republic.[1][2]
Early life
[edit]Getting into football at the age of six with FK Vllaznia in his home country, Ciku moved to Greece in 1997 where he joined the youth ranks of AE Peristasi,[3] living there for nine years[4] crediting his success as a professional footballer to his father who succored him in his rise.[3]
Career
[edit]After playing for MFK Karviná of the Czech National Football League from 2009 to 2014, the Albanian midfielder got used to the climate there[4] before transferring to Polish club GKS Katowice in 2014.[5][6][7] where he did not get paid for half a year despite a large fan support for the club.[8] Ciku then ended up at FC MAS Táborsko, again in the Czech Republic, where he settled in well[8] before departing in 2017.
