Phathana Phommathep

Phathana Phommathep is a Laotian footballer who plays as a winger or a forward for Ezra F.C. and the Laos national football team. Besides Laos, he has played in Thailand.

Early life
Born in a small village called Oudomvilay located in Savannakhet Province, he started playing football at an early age as his uncle was a coach of the local side. Aged eight, Phathana joined his first team and made his way to the incipient Korean-backed Ezra F.C. During his time here, he attracted the interest from Lanexang United who saw him as a footballer they could build their squad around.

Club
Making one appearance in the Mekong Cup against Buriram United of Thailand in 2016, his club viewed him as a regular starter in the 2017 season and his coach Leonardo Vitorino praised him as 'the most talented player he had seen in Lao football'. However, his progress as a player would be hampered by the disbandment of his club Lanexang United. In June 2017, he signed for Kalasin F.C. of Thailand. In 2017, he signed for Chonburi.

International
For the 2016 AFC U-19 Championship qualifiers, he was the number 25 midfielder.

On June 7, 2017, the Savannakhet native made his senior team debut in a 4–0 loss to the UAE.
