Roei Dayan (Hebrew: רועי דיין, pronounced Rō'ī Dayan; born September 19, 1984) is a retired Israeli professional footballer who is mostly known for his time playing in Maccabi Tel Aviv and Hapoel Acre.

Playing career

Club career

A product of the Maccabi Tel Aviv youth system, Dayan played his first match in the full team when he came on as a substitute in a Toto Cup match.

After being supposedly released by Maccabi, Dayan joined Scottish side, St Mirren for a week long trial. He impressed manager, Gus MacPherson, enough to have his trial extended by another week before being offered a contract.

However the proposed deal to bring him to St Mirren has fallen through because of the €400,000 price tag that Maccabi Tel Aviv placed on Dayan.

On 29 June 2011, Dayan signed a two-year contract with Belgian Pro League side Beerschot AC.

National team

Dayan was a part of the player pool for the Israel national under-21 football team that qualified for the 2007 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship in the Netherlands.
