Career

Flamurtari (2007-2012)

Moçka was promoted to the Flamurtari first team from the U-19s by Eqerem Memushi before the start of the 2007-2008 season at the age of just 17 following the departures of Estref Billa and Erjon Dine.

His first league game in a red and black shirt came in round 5 of the Albanian Superliga against Dinamo Tirana on 28 September 2007. Moçka played well to keep a clean sheet against prolific strikers such as Sebino Plaku and Pero Pejic which helped his team win the game away from home 1-0 against a strong Dinamo side.[1][2] During his first 3 games the young goalkeeper managed 3 clean sheets against Dinamo, Partizani Tirana and KS Shkumbini Peqin

Apolonia (2012)

After falling out of favour with the coach Shkëlqim Muça, Moçka was loaned out to fellow Albanian Superliga side Apolonia Fier for the remainder of the 2011-12 season on 27 February 2012.[3]

Kastrioti (2012–2013)

Following his loan return to Flamurtari from Apolonia Fier, on 25 July 2012 he signed for Kastrioti Krujë. He became the club's first choice goalkeeper for the 2012–13 campaign ahead of Alfred Osmani, and he made 19 league appearances, as well as scoring a goal from the penalty spot in a 4-1 win over his previous club Apolonia.[4] He also made 4 Albanian Cup appearances to help his side reach the quarter finals.

Flamurtari (2013–2014)

Moçka returned to his first club Flamurtari ahead of the 2013–14 season and following the departure of Enea Koliqi to Iraklis Thessaloniki he became the club's first choice goalkeeper ahead of Klodian Xhelilaj. He played in 24 league games in a season where the club struggled in the Albanian Superliga and only managed to finish 7th in the league. He also made 5 cup appearances in a successful cup winning campaign, but he was overlooked for the final against FK Kukësi as the manager Ernest Gjoka decided to choose Klodian Xhelilaj instead.[5]
