Peter Brezovan (born December 9, 1979 in Slovakia) is a former Slovak under-21 international footballer who currently plays for English League Two outfit Swindon Town.
The tall goalkeeper began his career in his native Slovakia with PS Bratislava followed by moves to Vinohrady Bratislava, SKP Devín, Slovan Breclav, 1. HFK Olomouc before joining his current employers 1. FC Brno. Brezovan played for FK Inter Bratislava on loan before he was spotted by Swindon boss Dennis Wise during a trial in Crewe. Wise was impressed and signed the Slovak on a season long loan with view to make the deal permanent later.
Rumour has it that Dennis Wise had an outstanding favour owed by Brezovan's agents. He decided to take up this favour and prevent the agent from telling other, higher-division clubs, about Brezovan.
The Slovak's Swindon debut came on the opening day of the 2006/07 campaign - away at Hartlepool United. Swindon were shaky at times throughout the match but Brezovan stood firm and performed heroics saving two Hartlepool penalties from Joel Porter and Ritchie Humphreys. Swindon finish 1-0 winners and the talk was about a debut to remember by Peter Brezovan.
Following his heroics in the game against Hartlepool and a string of impressive displays, Peter was awarded the PFA Player of the Month award for September.
Sadly, due to falling awkwardly in the 76th minute of the home game against Grimsby Town on the 14th October - in which Swindon triumphed 3-0 - Brezovan suffered a suspected broken arm and it has been reported that he will miss the rest of the season.
Despite this, manager Dennis Wise has stated that he is hoping to tie up a permanent deal for the goalkeeper as the deal is reported to contain a first option clause wherein the Town have the option to buy him for a fixed fee - believed to be around the £50,000 mark - at any time.
On March 29, 2007 - it was confirmed that Brezovan had signed a two-year contract with Swindon.
