Festim Miraka (born 31 December 1987) is an Albanian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for KF Burreli.

Club career

Luftëtari Gjirokastër

On 12 October 2017, in the last moments of 2017–18 Albanian Superliga match against Kazma, Miraka conceded a penalty by punching Stevan Račić in the stomach. He was immediately sent off by the referee as Luftëtari conceded and eventually lost the match 1–2 at home. One day later, he was suspended 5 matches by Disciplinary Committee of Albanian Football Association for unsportsmanlike conduct. Miraka justified his action by saying that the striker insulted him. He was also suspended by club immediately after for an unlimited time until a second notice. On 10 November, Miraka terminated his contract with the club and become a free agent in the process, stating: "The suspension without end is not acceptable."
