Early career

Guri first joined local side Vllaznia in 2005 at the age of 12, where he played for the academy side at different age groups before being promoted to the first team during the 2011–12 season, where he made his professional debut in an Kategoria Superiore match against Apolonia on 19 November 2011, coming on as a late substitute for Xhevahir Sukaj in the 4–1 away win.[2] He went on to make 9 league and 2 cup appearances under Rudi Vata during his debut season, as his side finished mid table in the league and reached the quarter-finals of the Albanian Cup.

Kukësi

On 7 June 2016, Guri joined Kukësi on a free transfer, returning in Kategoria Superiore after one season absence.[3] He was presented on the same day where he officially signed the contract.[4]

On 7 July, in the second leg of 2016–17 UEFA Europa League first qualifying round against Rudar Pljevlja, Guri made his Kukësi debut as well as his European debut by coming on as a second-half substitute and scored the winner in the 79th minute, helping the team to win 1–0 and to progress to the second round with the aggregate 2–1.[5]

On 8 April, Guri confirmed that he would leave Kukësi at the end of 2017–18 season with the aim of playing with a top league club.[16] Six days later, he scored three goals, including a free-kick, in the 4–0 home win over third-placed team Partizani, recording his first top flight hat-trick.[17] He also reached the 20-goal landmark and also become the first player to score a hat-trick versus capital club since Skerdi Bejzade in 2004.[18] Later that month, he scored a second-half winner against Skënderbeu to give Kukësi the first win at the opposition turf since September 2013.[19] His performances earned him another Player of the Month award, becoming the first player in history to win in twice in a season.[20]
