Rovien Ostiana (born 14 February 2002) is an Aruban footballer who most recently played for Jong Volendam and the Aruba national team.
Club career[edit]
As a youth, Ostiana played for SV SVV beginning in at least 2013.[1] For the 2020/2021 season, he joined English club Enfield Town of the Isthmian League Premier Division, suiting up for the under-19 team.[2] He returned to the Netherlands in 2021, signing for Kozakken Boys.[3] In July 2022, he moved to Jong Volendam of the Tweede Divisie. Team manager Kizito Musampa stated that Ostiana was his ideal image of a true number six.[4] Shortly after joining the club, he appeared in a 8–0 friendly victory over SV De Rijp.[5] He was joined on the Volendam roster by fellow Dutch Caribbean player Quincy Hoeve, a Bonaire international. In August 2023 the two players linked up in a league match against Koninklijke HFC.[6]
International career[edit]
Ostiana made his senior international debut for Aruba on 11 September 2023 in a 2023–24 CONCACAF Nations League C match against the Cayman Islands.[7] He scored his first goal for the national team in the second minute of the eventual 2–1 victory.[8][9] On the next matchday, Ostiana scored his second goal in two matches as Aruba defeated the United States Virgin Islands to remain undefeated and top its group.[10][11] Following the matchday, he was named to the League C Best XI for his performance.[12]
