Rijat Shala (Serbo-Croat: Rijat Šala; born 26 July 1983) is a Swiss footballer of Kosovar Albanian descent who most recently played for Swiss lower league club AS Breganzona.
He spent the 2007–08 season with Serie A side Cagliari, making his club debut on a Coppa Italia match that won 2–1 to A.C. Siena, on 29 August 2007. He however did not manage to gain a single first team appearance, being quickly relegated into the reserves, and in July 2008 Cagliari released him from the squad.[1] He played for Lega Pro Prima Divisione club Taranto in 2008.[2] In mid-2009 he left for Prima Divisione Novara, winning a successive promotion in 2010 (to Serie B) and in 2011 (Serie A). In the first Novara season, he only earned a gross annual salary of €76,900.[3] He later played for KF Vllaznia Shkodër[4] in the Albanian Superliga.
He employed Bruno Carpeggiani (of "Italian Managers Group srl.") as his agent on 12 December 2008 but unilaterally terminated the contract during 2009–10 season. In 2011 Tribunale Nazionale di Arbitrato per lo Sport of CONI awarded a decision that Shala had to pay Carpeggiani €3,845 as agent fee (€76,900 x 5%).[3]
