KF Spartak Tirana (Albanian: KF Spartaku Tiranë) is an Albanian football club based the capital city Tirana. They currently compete in the Kategoria e Tretë.

History

The club was founded in 1950 as the team of the trade unions. Spartak Tirana managed to play in the years 1954, 1955 and 1957 in the Kategoria Superiore. Due to the reorganisation of sports teams in 1959–1960, most of the best players of Spartak Tirana transferred to 17 Nëntori (today Sportklub Tirana).

The club was dissolved in 1959, and was refounded in 2012. A group of people passionate about football and football history (Artan Vangjeli, Telman Perleka, Rezart Sejdini, Leonard Haroku, Gilbert Hysko) with the sponsorship of the IDS Company (run by Agron Shehaj and Fatmir Lamcja) formed the football team, which currently competes in the Kategoria e Tretë.[1]
