He moved from his hometown club, Lushnja and was given the number 16 shirt for his first season. He played the first leg of Dinamo Tirana's Champions League encounter against FK Modrica.

He made his competitive debut with the team in the opening Albanian Superliga week against the newly promoted side Elbasani at Qemal Stafa Stadium, scoring the only goal of the match in the first half. After winning the Albanian Supercup and the Albanian Superliga title with the club, Sefa left Skënderbeu Korçë at the end of the 2014–15 season through a mutual agreement to terminate his contract, which was due to expire the following year in 2016.
