Gerhard Progni (born 6 November 1986 in Bajram Curri, Tropojë) is an Albanian professional footballer plays for Teuta Durrës in the Albanian Superliga. An Partizani Tirana product, Progni has played for several clubs in Albania, including Skënderbeu Korçë, whom he won two Albanian Superliga titles.
Progni began his career with Partizani Tirana as a child, where he played for the youth teams within the club. During the 2004–05 season with Partizani's U-19 side, he won the national championship and he caught the attention of the senior team, who towards the end of the season invited to train with them. He was promoted from the U-19 side at the end of the season, and was loaned out to Albanian First Division side Kastrioti Krujë for the 2005–06 season in order to gain first team experience. During his year on loan he became an integral part of the first team squad as a teenager and with his good performances and 3 league goals he even helped the club achieve promotion to the Albanian Superliga after finishing third.
Following a success loan period at Kastrioti Krujë, Progni returned to his parent club Partizani Tirana and signed a three-year contract with the club. During the 2006-07 campaign he became an important first team player, making 29 league appearances and scoring 2 goals in the process, helping his side finish 4th in the league as well as reaching the semi-finals of the Albanian Cup, narrowly losing out to beaten finalists Teuta Durrës on away goals. The following season, he played for Partizani until January, making 11 league appearances, before leaving the club for Besa Kavajë.
