Polizoi Arbëri (born 9 September 1988) is an Albanian former footballer who played as a defender or midfielder.
On 15 August 2015, Arbëri signed a one-year deal with fellow Albanian Superliga side Vllaznia Shkodër as a free transfer. He was presented to the media two days later, where he was allocated squad number 13. During his presentation, Arbëri said: "I'm very happy with my choice. I'm glad that i'm going to be with Vllaznia for the upcoming season. I know this squad and naturally signed for this team for its name."
He made his Vllaznia Shkodër debut on 9 September 2015 in the league match against Skënderbeu Korçë, playing full-90 minutes in a losing effort at neutral ground of Ismail Xhemali Stadium. On 30 September, in his Albanian Cup debut against Pogradeci for the second leg of the first round, Arbëri successfully converted a penalty-kick for his first goal of the season, helping the team to win the match 4–0 and to progress in the next round with the aggregate 5–1.
Arbëri scored his first league goal of the season against Tirana on 25 October in a 1–1 draw; he scored the goal in the 86th minute with a precise curled free-kick to help his team to earn a point in the bid to escape relegation. He dedicated the goal to the fans.
On 16 March 2016, Arbëri suffered an injury in his left knee that would rule him out for the rest of 2015–16 season. At the end of the month, it was reported that he would undergo surgery in his left knee on 12 or 13 April and also extended his contract with the club for another one season. He was eventually operated on 15 April.
On 13 June 2016, Arbëri joined fellow Albanian Superliga side Kukësi by signing an initial one-year contract with an option of a further one. His debut occurred on 24 August in the Albanian Supercup match against Skënderbeu Korçë, playing full-90 minutes as Kukësi won 3–1 at Selman Stërmasi Stadium to win its maiden Albanian Supercup title. His league debut came later on 8 September in the opening matchday against his former side Vllaznia Shkodër. He played the entire match which ended in a goalless draw. One week later, Arbëri suffered another major knee injury just before the start of the second matchday against Teuta Durrës. He torn the ligament of his right leg, which kept him sidelined for the next five months. In April of the following year, Arbëri was released from the club after his constant knee issues.
