Early life
Born in a small village called Oudomvilay located in Savannakhet Province, he started playing football at an early age as his uncle was a coach of the local side. Aged eight, Phathana joined his first team and made his way to the incipient Korean-backed Ezra F.C. During his time here, he attracted the interest from Lanexang United, who saw him as a footballer they could build their squad around.
Career Club Making one appearance in the Mekong Cup against Buriram United of Thailand in 2016, coach Leonardo Vitorino praised him as the most talented player he had seen in Lao football. However, his progress as a player would be hampered by the disbandment of his club Lanexang United. In June 2017, he signed for Kalasin F.C. of Thailand. In 2017, he signed for Chonburi.
International He played in the 2016 AFC U-19 Championship qualifiers. On June 7, 2017, the Savannakhet native made his senior team debut in a 4–0 loss to UAE.
