Tigran Barseghyan (Armenian: Տիգրան Բարսեղյան; born 22 September 1993) is an Armenian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Niké League side Slovan Bratislava and the Armenia national team.

Club career

Born in Armenian capital Yerevan, Barsegyan played with FC Banants, FC Gandzasar Kapan and FC Mika in the Armenian Premier League.[1] On 30 August 2016, he moved abroad and signed with Macedonian side FK Vardar where his national teammate Hovhannes Hambardzumyan is already playing.[1]

After two-and-a-half seasons at FK Vardar, considered to be one of the best foreign players to play in Macedonian First Football League by media such as gol.mk[2] due to visa problems, he left the club, seeking a new one at the beginning of 2019.[2]

On 24 January 2020, FC Astana announced the signing of Barseghyan to a two-year contract.[3]

On 24 November 2021, Slovan Bratislava announced the signing of Barseghyan to a contract.[4] On 28 August 2024, he scored the winning goal in a 3–2 victory over Midtjylland during the 2024–25 Champions League play-off second leg, qualifying his club to the group stage for the first time in their history with a 4–3 aggregate score.[5]

International career

Barseghyan played with the Armenia U21 national team in 2014.[1] In 2016, he made his debut for the senior national team.[6] He participated in the 2018–19 UEFA Nations League. He scored a goal to tie a Nations League match against Liechtenstein, with his team ultimately winning. He scored the winning goal on a penalty against Romania.
