Skënder Ahmet Halili (born 20 August 1940 – 13 December 1982) was an Albanian football player who played for 17 Nëntori, Dinamo and the Albania national team.
Club career
Halili played for Dinamo Tirana from December 1959 until December 1961, when he was suspended for a year after he wanted to, but was not allowed to, leave Dinamo.
International career
He made his debut for Albania in a June 1963 Olympic Games qualification match against Bulgaria and earned a total of 11 caps, scoring no goals. His final international was a November 1965 FIFA World Cup qualification match against Northern Ireland.
Personal life
