Martin Kavdanski (Bulgarian: Мартин Кавдански; born 13 February 1987 in Dupnitsa) is a Bulgarian footballer who plays as a defender for Lokomotiv Gorna Oryahovitsa.

Club career

On 28 June 2015, Kavdanski signed a one-year contract with the most successful club in Albania, KF Tirana, taking the number 3 for the 2015–16 season.[2] He became the third defender that was brought to Tirana during that summer, after Dritan Smajli and Ronald Gërçaliu.[3]

Kavdanski made his official debut with Tirana on 1 November in the match against Kukësi, featuring in the last 30 minutes of the 2–1 home win.[4] Six days later he played only four minutes in another home win, this time against the newcomers of Tërbuni Pukë.[5]

Kavdanski started for the first time this season on 23 November in the match against Bylis Ballsh, helping the team to get a clean-sheet in a 0–1 away win.[6] During the first part of the season he struggled to find minutes, but found it very hard, as he was not the among the first choices of coach Ilir Daja, who preferred the duo Muça-Karan instead. He appeared in only six matches in the league and the cup, and eventually left the team on 25 December 2015.[7][8]
