Introduction
Romuald Désiré Peiser (born 3 August 1979) is a French professional footballer who plays for American club San Francisco Deltas as a goalkeeper.
Football career
Peiser was born in Phalsbourg, Moselle. After unsuccessfully emerging through Paris Saint-Germain FC's youth system – only appeared for the reserves – he played in Germany with Bayer Leverkusen II and KFC Uerdingen, both in the lower leagues. He then spent one season with FC Vaduz in the Swiss Challenge League.
Peiser made his top flight debuts in the 2003–04 season, only missing four Liga I games as FC Rapid Bucureşti finished in third position. He returned to his country for the following four years, spending two apiece with Troyes AC and FC Gueugnon and being part of the former team's Ligue 1 roster in the 2005–06 campaign (no league appearances).
In 2008, aged 29, Peiser moved countries again, going on to start for both Portuguese sides he represented, Associação Naval 1º de Maio and Académica de Coimbra, both in the Primeira Liga.
On 9 July 2014, Peiser signed with his first non-European club, joining Ottawa Fury FC of the North American Soccer League. In July of the following year, he broke a record in the competition – in both the original and modern day incarnation – for the longest shutout record.
