Paolo Hausner (born 21 February 2002) is a semi-professional footballer who plays as a forward for French side Saint-Méziéry. Born in the Dominican Republic, he has represented Tahiti at international level.
Club career
[edit]Born in the Dominican Republic, Hausner moved to French Polynesia as a child, spending time on the island of Moʻorea, where he developed an interest in football.[1] Having played for Jeunes Tahitiens and Tefana at youth level, Hausner moved to mainland France, joining the academy of Auxerre in 2016.[2]
Having left Auxerre after five years, he joined Championnat National 3 side Saint-Apollinaire, where he spent half a season before joining Football Club de la Métropole Troyenne.[3] Despite helping FCM Troyes to promotion to the Championnat National 3, he left to join sixth-tier Saint-Méziéry, where he formed a strike partnership with Aurélien Daval.[4]
International career
[edit]In February 2023, the Tahitian Football Federation (FTF) reached out to Hausner in order for him to be called up to the national team.[5] He received his first call up in November of the same year, having to miss out on a Coupe de France match for Saint-Méziéry against Tahitian opposition Pirae.[6][7] He made his debut in the 0–0 2023 Pacific Games draw against Fiji on 21 November.
Style of play
[edit]Capable of playing anywhere across the front three, Hausner has stated his best position is on the wing.[8]
