Robbe Decostere (born 8 May 1998) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as a right-back for Roeselare.

Decostere progressed through the youth teams of SVD Kortemark, Roeselare, Club Brugge before finally ending up in the youth academy of Cercle Brugge. In July 2018, he was promoted to the first team and signed his first professional contract alongside fellow youth prospect Charles Vanhoutte.[3]

On 2 March 2019, manager Laurent Guyot gave Decostere his debut in the Belgian First Division A against Kortrijk. Fifteen minutes before full-time, Decostere came onto the pitch to replace the injured Guévin Tormin.[4] In his first season, he made four appearances in the league.[2]

On 1 September 2019, Decostere was sent on loan to Tubize together with teammate Charles Vanhoutte on a one-year deal.[5] Decostere played regularly but was unable to prevent the club from suffering relegation to the Belgian Division 2.

After his loan spell, Decostere became a permanent starter at Cercle Brugge, where he signed a contract extension until June 2023 in December 2020, just like fellow academy players Vanhoutte and Thibo Somers.[6]

On 6 September 2023, Decostere signed a one-season contract with Zulte Waregem.[7]

After going 6 months without a club, Decostere signed for Union SG in February 2025.[8]
