On 22 March 2015, Djarmati received the first red-card of his career for punching a player during the 0–3 away win against Ada.[4] He was banned for five matches, and returned in the first team for the league match against Adriatiku on 9 May.[5][6] In this match, Djarmati started and played full-90 minutes as Tërbuni didn't go more and a goalless draw.[7]
Kastrioti[edit]
On 13 July 2015, Djarmati returned to Kastrioti after almost five years by signing a one-year contract.[8][9] He was given number 25 for the 2015–16 season. About this transfer, Djarmati said: "I'm very happy that i will be part of Kastrioti for the new season. I'm optimist that this team will be a rival to be promoted in Kategoria Superiore next season".[8]
Djarmati started the season by playing only 25 minutes in team's opening match of the season against Erzeni on 12 September 2015, helping his side to start the season in the right way with a 2–1 win.[10] He scored his first goal of the season one week later in the second match of the league, netting the first goal of his team that equaled the 0–2 disadvantage into a 2–2 draw against Adriatiku.[11] He appeared again as a second-half substitute. In the beginning of September Djarmati suffered an injury that kept him outside of the field for three weeks.
On 30 September, Djarmati was again on the score sheet as he scored a decisive goal in a 2–1 loss against Besëlidhja in the returning leg of the first round of 2015–16 Albanian Cup, helping Kastrioti to pass the round with the away goal rule after winning the first match 1–0.[12] In his first match as a starter on 7 November, Djarmati scored a brace as Kastrioti thrashed 4–1 Burreli in the week 8 of the league.[13]
