Pierre Olivier Piskor (born 2 May 1984) is a French footballer. Right-footed,[1] Piskor currently plays as a striker for FC Differdange 03 in the Luxembourg National Division.

He won the Luxembourgian Footballer of the Year at the end of the 2008-09 season, having scored 30 goals in 26 games for Differdange in the season.[2]

Club career

Piskor was virtually unknown until the summer of 2006, when he moved from Third Division FC Rodange 91 to Differdange.[3] In his first season, he finished the 2006-07 season of the National Division as the league's second-top goalscorer behind Daniel Da Mota, scoring 25 goals including five goals in an 8-0 win against FC Mamer 32.[3]

The following season, he topped the National Division goal-scoring charts, totalling 30 goals in 26 games, and winning the Luxembourgian Footballer of the Year award: the first time a non-F91 Dudelange player had won in five years.[4] Qualifying for the UEFA Europe League 2nd Qualifying round in 2009–10, Piskor scored Differdange's sole goal against NK Rijeka of Croatia.[5] However, the following season, Piskor failed to follow up this goalscoring record,[6] scoring eight goals in nineteen games.
