Osvaldo Ardiles Haay (born 17 May 1998, in Jayapura, Indonesia) is a Indonesian professional footballer who currently plays for Liga 1 club Persipura Jayapura and the Indonesia national team. He can operate as a left winger or left back.
2015 was the year Haay made his senior debut aged 17. Separately, he played for the Persipura Jayapura U-21 squad. He has emerged as a young player who led Persipura Jayapura to the Torabika Bhayangkara Cup 2016, for him it was a trial to prove whether he made the first-team. Starting against Arema Cronus F.C., he netted his first goal on the first team roster.
Osvaldo's mother, Buanitawati came from Banyuwangi, East Java whereas his father, Edison Haay came from Papua. Notwithstanding the fact that he was born and bred in Papua, Haay understands some of the Javanese language derived from his mother's side. According to the footballer, he had visited the ancestral heritage homeland in Banyuwangi. Haay sees Eden Hazard as a motivation to play football and generally supports Chelsea. He is currently also enrolled as a student at the Faculty of Economics, Cenderawasih University.
In 2016, Persipura Jayapura chose not to release him and fellow youth international Marinus Wanewar ahead of the 2016 AFF U-19 Youth Championship to play for Indonesia. Persipura Jayapura Management said that 'if they both go, three other members were also called to the national team; this equalizes into five members lost in total, it is inevitable that there would be a problem' he concluded. However, that coincided with injury with captain Boaz Solossa. With his absence, they require attackers.
