Pavlo Andriyovych Isenko (; born 21 July 2003) is a Ukrainian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Liga I club Universitatea Craiova.
Isenko is a youth product of the Vorskla Poltava academy. In May 2019, he was included in the matchday squad for Vorskla's Ukrainian Premier League fixture against Chornomorets Odesa, but remained an unused substitute. In June 2020, he was promoted to the first team.
Isenko made his official debut on 24 June 2020, aged 16, coming on as a substitute for Dmytro Riznyk in the 119th minute of a Ukrainian Cup semi-final against Mariupol, ahead of the penalty shootout. He saved three of five penalties, helping his side win 3âÂÂ2 and reach the final. On 8 July, he was on the bench as his side lost 7âÂÂ8 on penalties to Dynamo Kyiv.
Isenko established himself as a regular starter in the second part of the 2022âÂÂ23 season, amassing 15 league appearances. On 15 May 2024, he started for Vorskla Poltava in another cup final, where they were defeated 1âÂÂ2 by Shakhtar Donetsk.
On 14 July 2025, following the relegation of Vorskla Poltava to the Ukrainian First League, Isenko joined Romanian team Universitatea Craiova. Although some sources described the move as a free transfer, Craiova owner Mihai Rotaru revealed that the total cost of the deal was â¬600,000, including the solidarity contribution and agent fees. Four days later, he made his debut in a 3âÂÂ1 home win over ArgeàPiteÃÂti in the Liga I.
In 2019, Isenko was called up to the Ukraine national under-17 football team and took part in the qualifiers for the 2020 UEFA European Under-17 Championship in Estonia, which was later cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
