Armando Cungu (born 23 April 1973) is an Albanian football coach and former player.[1] He was the sporting director of his former club Vllaznia between 2010 and 2012.[2]

Managerial career[edit]

Laçi[edit]

Cungu started his second season in charge of Laçi in July, where the team was going to face Inter Baku for the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League first qualifying round.[3] In the first leg at home, despite making a good overall appearance in the match, Laçi didn't earn more than a 1–1 draw, leaving everything open for the returning leg.[4] In the returning leg, Cungu's side was not able to score as the final result was 0–0, meaning that Laçi are out due to away goal rule.[5] On 12 August, in team's first match in domestic season, Cungu won his second silverware with the club, the Albanian Supercup, where Laçi beat Skënderbeu Korçë on penalty shootouts after a 2–2 draw in regular time.[6]

On 31 December 2015, Cungu resigned as Laçi coach following the poor results lately.[7]

Vllaznia Shkodër[edit]

On 8 January 2016, Cungu was appointed the new coach of Vllaznia Shkodër, replacing Armir Grimaj for the second part of 2015–16 season.[8] He was presented to the media the following day, where he signed is 18-month contract.[9]
