Career
Early career
Kërçiku made his professional debut for KF Tirana in a Europa League second qualifying round game at home against Slovak side FC Spartak Trnava on 14 July 2011. Tirana's coach at the time Julián Rubio started Kërçiku in midfield and played him for the entire game, which ended in a goalless draw.[2] He then played in the return fixture the following week in Slovakia where he once again started the game, but he was substituted off in 70th minute for Cameron Hepple in a game that ended in a 3–1 loss for KF Tirana.[3] His next game was the 2011 Albanian Supercup against Skënderbeu Korçë where he started on the bench but was brought on at half time in the 1–0 win for KF Tirana thanks to a Bekim Balaj winner.[4]
Skënderbeu
He left KF Tirana and signed for reigning Albanian Superliga champions Skënderbeu Korçë in the last few hours of the summer transfer window, and he was seen as the man to play behind striker Daniel Xhafa.[5] He scored his first goal for the club on his first start against Shkumbini Peqin on 24 September 2011 in a 3–1 win where he opened the scoring in the 15th minute.[6]
Return to Tirana
Shortly before the start of 2015–16 season, Kërçiku, when everyone thought he was going to leave, extended his contract for another season.[7]
