Hasanpapa played for Partizani in the 1991–92 European Cup Winners' Cup game against Dutch giants Feyenoord in Rotterdam and decided not to return to communist Albania after the match,[1] but to leave for Germany where he played for Erkelenz, Kückhoven and Wegberg.[2] He later surfaced at SC Jülich, where he became subject of a TV documentary.[3] At 42, he still played for fellow German amateur side SC Rheindahlen.[4]
He made his debut for Albania in an April 1989 FIFA World Cup qualification match against England, which proved to be his sole international game.[5] He started that game after Mirel Josa was out injured.[6]
