Giovanni Büttner

Giovanni Büttner (born 22 September 1998) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or left winger for Vierde Divisie club MASV. He is the cousin of fellow footballer Alexander Büttner.

Career Born in Doetinchem, before making his league debut in the Eerste Divisie against TOP Oss on 22 April 2019.

In the summer of 2019, Büttner joined fellow Eerste Divisie club TOP Oss. He established himself as a regular player at the club, securing a contract extension until 2021 in December 2019. Despite encountering injuries during his second season, he was granted a contract extension for an additional year.

Upon the expiration of his contract in 2022, Büttner underwent a trial period with Telstar in an attempt to secure a new deal, but this endeavor proved unsuccessful. Consequently, he joined Kozakken Boys, starting off strongly with a hat-trick in his debut, but his stint there was short-lived due to an injury. Given the distance between his hometown Doetinchem and Werkendam, both the club and the player mutually agreed to part ways in November 2022. In May 2023, he underwent training sessions with his hometown club, De Graafschap, and later on, on 8 September 2023, he officially joined the first team on amateur terms, coincidentally joining his cousin Alexander at the club.

On 2 September 2024, he joined Vitesse on amateur basis, joining Alexander once again. On 27 November 2024, he left Vitesse due to "difference of opinion".
