Stavri Lubonja (born September 1935) is a former Albanian player and manager.
He spent his six-year football-playing career with capital club Dinamo Tirana, winning three national championships.
During the 1959 season, Lubonja was the league's top goalscorer with 11 goals, with Dinamo, who finished in 3rd place.[1]
Lubonja also served at Dinamo Tirana as the manager in 1979–81, winning the league in the 1979–80 season.[2]
Lubonja is married to his long-time partner Mediha Lubonja (née Veçani), who was a dancer.[3] He also holds American citizenship,[4] since his father had emigrated to the USA only to return to Korçë in 1931, four years before Stavri was born.[5]
