Club career

Piskor was virtually unknown until the summer of 2006, when he moved from Third Division FC Rodange 91 to Differdange. [3] In his first season, he finished the 2006-07 season of the National Division as the league's second-top goalscorer behind Daniel Da Mota, scoring 25 goals including five goals in an 8-0 win against FC Mamer 32. [3]

The following season, he topped the National Division goal-scoring charts, totalling 30 goals in 26 games, and winning the Luxembourgian Footballer of the Year award: the first time a non-F91 Dudelange player had won in five years. [4] Qualifying for the UEFA Europa League 2nd Qualifying round in 2009–10, Piskor scored Differdange's sole goal against NK Rijeka of Croatia. [5] However, the following season, Piskor failed to follow up this goalscoring record, [6] scoring eight goals in nineteen games.
