Roland Peqini (born 25 December 1990) is an Albanian footballer who plays as a defender for Albanian First Division side Dinamo Tirana.
On 4 January 2016, Peqini agreed terms with his former club Kukësi where he signed a contract until the end of the season, returning to the team for a third time. However, his third spell with the club was shord-lived, as he was suddenly released after only 14 days. Speaking on that, he accused the team's coach Klodian Duro as the main reason of his departure, by saying: " that it was him [Duro] who brought me to Kukësi and was him who removed me from the team."
On 23 January 2016, Peqini joined Albanian First Division strugglers Dinamo Tirana on a 18-month contract, returning to the capital club after four years abstence. He was assigned squad number 15 and made his return debut on 13 February in a 1–0 away defeat to Butrinti Sarandë, playing full-90 minutes.
On 11 September 2016, Peqini joined the fellow Albanian First Division side Elbasani on a free transfer, signing a one-year contract. He left the club on 29 January of the following year after 12 league appearances due to club financial problems.
On 1 February 2017, after leaving Elbasani, Peqini returned to Dinamo on a free transfer by signing until the end of the season. After two matches as an unused substitute, Peqini appeared on the matchday 16 against Pogradeci, entering as a substitute in the 25th minute to fill the blank left by the dismissal of Julian Brahja, with the finishing in a 0–1 home defeat.
