In the 2016–17 season, Partizani Tirana competed in the Kategoria Superiore for the fourth consecutive season. The club also participated in the UEFA Champions League after Skënderbeu Korçë's exclusion from the European competitions during the season due to the match-fixing.[1] That was the first participation in the Champions League after 23 seasons as well. In the league, Partizani finished in second place again after losing a title race with Kukësi.[2]
