Idrizi moved for the first time aboard Kosovo in June 2017 by signing with Kategoria Superiore side Kukësi on a one-year contract. He began his season as an unused substitute in the 2017 Albanian Supercupmatch in which his team was defeated by Tirana. Idrizi played his first match for Kukësi later on 16 October by entering in the last 15 minutes of a 4–2 home win versus Teuta Durrës. He netted his maiden Kukësi goal on 4 March of the following, the opener of the 2–1 win at bottom side Lushnja. Idrizi concluded his first season at Kukësi by playing 31 matches between league and cup, as Kukësi finished runner-up in championship and was knocked-out by Laçi in the Albanian Cup. Following the end of the season, Idrizi left the club after he was not given a contract renewal.
