Club career

Born in Chania, Greece, Shkurti played youth football for four clubs, including Jong Ajax, Olympiakos F.C. and S.S. Lazio. He arrived at the latter in January 2010 as compatriot Igli Tare acted as the team's director of football.

In the 2010–11 season, Shkurti made his senior debuts, representing Panionios F.C. in his country of adoption but also being loaned by the Superleague side to Thrasyvoulos F.C. in January 2011. Roughly one year later, he moved to Portugal with lowly Vilaverdense FC, and the following campaign he signed with C.D. Tondela in that nation's Segunda Liga, led by former S.L. Benfica and Portugal great Vítor Paneira.

Shkurti did not settle with any team in the following years, representing in quick succession Roda JC Kerkrade (Dutch Eredivisie), Niki Volos FC, Asteras Tripoli F.C. and Skoda Xanthi FC (all in the Greek top division) and Aris Limassol FC from the Cypriot First Division. On 8 September 2017, he joined Albanian Superliga side Luftëtari Gjirokastër on a one-year contract.
