About the player
Armend Kabashi was born in Bad Saulgau, Germany, and holds Finnish citizenship. He came up through the Finnish system at LePa before moving to FC Honka, where he made his senior debut for the reserve side Pallohonka in 2011 and stepped up to the first team the following year. That Honka side won the Finnish Cup in 2012.
A loan at FC Viikingit in 2013 preceded a move to Germany, where he spent time with Eintracht Braunschweig's reserve team and then TuS Erndtebrück. He returned to Finland in January 2018 to rejoin Honka, left at the end of that year, then came back for a short spell in August 2019.
Since then Kabashi has moved regularly within the Finnish leagues: a season at KPV in 2020, a first stint at IF Gnistan from April 2021, a year at AC Oulu in 2022, and a return to Gnistan in 2023 that lasted through the 2025 season. At international level, he represented Finland at under-21 level, collecting 11 caps between 2014 and 2016, though he has not been capped by the senior side.
Kabashi joined FC Lahti on a free transfer in February 2026 after his contract at Gnistan expired. He plays in midfield with his right foot.
