He won the Luxembourgish Footballer of the Year at the end of the 2008–09 season, having scored 30 goals in 26 games for Differdange in the season.[1]
Club career
Piskor was virtually unknown until the summer of 2006, when he moved from Third Division Rodange 91 to Differdange.[2] 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.[2]
The following season, he topped the National Division goal-scoring charts, totalling 30 goals in 26 games, and winning the Luxembourgish Footballer of the Year award: the first time a non-F91 Dudelange player had won in five years.[3] Qualifying for the UEFA Europa League 2nd Qualifying round in 2009–10, Piskor scored Differdange's sole goal against NK Rijeka of Croatia.[4] However, the following season, Piskor failed to follow up this goalscoring record,[5] scoring eight goals in nineteen games.
Style of play
A right-footed forward, Piskor was good in the penalty area and contributed little defensively.[6]
