Patrik Le Giang

Patrik Le Giang (born 8 September 1992), also spelled as Lê Giang Patrik, is a Slovak professional footballer who currently plays as a goalkeeper for V.League 1 club Cong An Ho Chi Minh City.

Le Giang's career was mostly spent in Slovakia and Czech Republic. He has represented Slovakia at under-19 and under-21.

Club career

Le Giang was born in Lučenec. He started off his career in Fiľakovo. He joined the Žilina youth system when he was fifteen. In 2011, he was promoted to the first team of MŠK Žilina. In July 2011, he joined fellow league outfit Zemplín Michalovce on a one-year loan from Žilina. Le Giang made his debut for Michalovce against LAFC Lučenec on 23 July 2011. In June 2012, Le Giang returned to Žilina after his loan spell in Michalovce expired. Patrik played his first match for Žilina on 15 May 2013 against ViOn Zlaté Moravce.

On 19 February 2023, he made his debut for Cong An Hanoi in a draw 1–1 against Hoang Anh Gia Lai. However in the middle of the season, he was loaned to Ho Chi Minh City due to the appearance of Filip Nguyen (both are non-naturalized Vietnamese players, but each team can only have 1 of them in the roster at the same time).

On 18 August 2024, after two successful seasons as the starter goalkeeper of Ho Chi Minh City, Patrik was permanently transferred to the team, signing a three-year contract.

International career

Although born in Slovakia and available to play for Slovakia, he is also available to represent for Vietnam due to his origin, as long as he also possesses Vietnamese citizenship. He has played for the Slovakia under-19s before representing its under-21 side.

In March 2026, Le Giang was named in Vietnam national team's preliminary squad for the friendly match against Bangladesh and the Asian Cup qualification match against Malaysia. However, he did not make the final cut due to administrative problems.

Personal life

Patrik Le Giang is a Vietnamese-Slovak, born to a Slovak mother named Katarína and a Vietnamese father named Lê Giang Nam in Lučenec. He is the younger brother of fellow footballer Emil Le Giang.

In January 2026, he completed his Vietnamese naturalization process, receiving his Vietnamese nationality.
