Jean Pierre Mifsud Triganza (born 20 November 1981 in Msida, Malta) is a professional footballer who plays for Hamrun Spartans as a striker.
Mifsud Triganza began his career with Floriana and was promoted to the first team during the 2000–01 season. He made two appearances early in the season, but did achieve a 50% strike rate, after scoring a goal in a 1-1 draw against Naxxar Lions.
Following two seasons on loan with Msida St. Joseph, Mifsud Triganza returned to Floriana, and started to establish himself as a first team regular, making 17 appearances and scoring four goals during the 2002–03 season, as Floriana narrowly avoided relegation, finishing 2nd in the relegation group, and thereby 8th in the overall league table. He began the 2003–04 season, hoping to force his way into a regular starting slot for Floriana. He made 12 appearances and scored three goals, but following some impressive performances he was signed by Birkirkara.
In spite of getting two games for Floriana early in 2000-01, it was clear Mifsud Triganza would need to be loaned out in order to gain first team experience. Mifsud Triganza spent the rest of the season on loan with Third Division club Msida Saint-Joseph, helping them to promotion. In just ten games, he managed to score 17 goals.
Mifsud Triganza was again loaned to Msida Saint-Joseph for the 2001-02 season. The season finished on a high for him as Msida Saint-Joseph won the Maltese Second Division title by eight clear points, with Mifsud Triganza scoring an impressive 24 goals to help the team's cause.
