Ansi Agolli (born 11 October 1982 in Tirana) is an Albanian footballer who currently plays for FK Qarabağ in the Azerbaijan Premier League and captains the Albanian national team. He plays primarily as a left midfielder or left-back, but he can also operate as a right-back.

Agolli began his career with his hometown club Tirana as a child at age of 9, progressing through the ranks of the club. He eventually joined the first team in the 2000–01 campaign, where he made his debut as a teenager. He made 10 league appearances for Tirana before being sent out on loan to fellow Albanian Superliga side Apolonia Fier in January 2003 to help the club in their battle to avoid the drop. Agolli played 12 times and scored one goal for Apolonia Fier but the side were narrowly relegated to the Albanian First Division on goal difference. Despite experiencing relegation, the six-month loan was a successful one for Agolli as he gained more first team experience and returned to the champions Tirana before the start of the 2003–04 season.

After spending two years at Tirana, he was spotted by Swiss club Neuchâtel Xamax in July 2005, where he made 32 appearances and scored four goals.

After one season at his new club, he decided to move to another Swiss club, Luzern. Things did not work out for him at Luzern, so he moved away from Switzerland in January 2007 on a free transfer to play in Finland with Vaasa PS.

At Vaasa, Agolli made 33 appearances and scored 1 goal. In July 2008, he decided to move back on loan to his first club Tirana. Agolli was part of a very successful season at the club as Tirana finished top of the league, making 36 appearances and scoring five goals.
