Club career
Tigran Yesayan began playing football in 1990 for Zoravana, which competed in the second minor league
International career
Yesayan had participated in 21 international matches and scored four goals for the Armenia national football team since his debut in an away friendly match against Peru on 20 February 1996. He left the national squad in 1999. (add second) Yesayan is the tenth top goalscorer for the Armenian national squad of all time.
Managerial career
After a career of playing football, Yesayan started coaching. He mostly coached youth and junior teams at first. In late January 2010, he became the head coach of Ararat Yerevan, which he played his last season for. The club had since been relegated to the Armenian First League.[1] Under the leadership of Yesayan, the club won the 2010 Armenian First League and returned to the Premier League. After the end of the season and expiry of his contract, Yesayan signed a new contract with the Ararat for a period of one year.[2] On 16 February, Yesayan had resigned from his post as head coach. The reason was the approach of the preparatory process of the team during the fall and spring transfer window and lack of serious recruitment of players who would seriously strengthened the team in games against Premier League clubs. In general, because of these factors, as well as other minor disclosed information, Yesayan left the club.[3]
He later became the head coach of Banants-2 for 2011. After dismissed from his post as head coach of Banants-2 that same year, Ashot Barseghyan filled the vacant position in the club.[4] At the end of the season left office.
At the end of February 2012, Yesayan returned to the coaching staff of Ararat, only this time as the coach of Ararat-2.[5]
