Pavao Pervan (Croatian pronunciation: [pâʋao pêrʋan];[2][3] born 13 November 1987) is an Austrian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for 2. Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg.[4]

Club career

Born in Livno, SR Bosnia and Herzegovina, Pervan began his youth career with local Austrian football side Favoritner AC, before coming up professionally to sign for fellow Austrian team SV Schwechat in 2005.

After appearing sparingly for the side over two seasons, he joined FC Lustenau 07 in 2007. After appearing more consistently for Lustenau, Pervan joined Austrian Bundesliga side LASK in 2010. From there, he cemented his status as first-choice goalkeeper for LASK, making over 170 league appearances.[5]

In the summer of 2018, Pervan moved to Germany, joining Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg. In April 2025, he signed a new contract with the club.

International career

He was first called up for Austria national team in November 2017, but remained on the bench in his first 10 call ups to the squad. He made his senior debut on 19 November 2019 in a Euro 2020 qualifier against Latvia which Austria lost 0–1.[6] He has, as of April 2021, earned a total of 7 caps as a goalkeeper for Austria.[7]
