Benjamin Pauwels (born 29 October 2004) is a Belgian footballer who plays as a left winger for Primeira Liga club Casa Pia, on loan from Segunda División club Leganés.

Club career

[edit]

Pauwels began his career with Gent, but suffered a knee injury in August 2022 which sidelined him for six months. Upon returning, he played for the under-21 squad and also for Jong Gent in the Division 1.[1]

On 8 August 2023, Pauwels signed a two-year contract with Challenger Pro League side Beerschot, after a trial period.[2] On 14 June of the following year, he moved abroad for the first time in his career, joining Eerste Divisie side SC Cambuur.[3]

On 21 July 2025, Pauwels switched teams and countries again, after agreeing to a four-year deal with CD Leganés in the Spanish Segunda División.[4] The following 2 February, he moved to Volendam on loan.[5] On 28 August 2026, he was loaned to Primeira Liga club Casa Pia for one season.[6]

International career

[edit]

On 14 March 2025, Pauwels was called up to the Belgium under-21 team for two friendlies.[7] He scored on his debut against Sweden six days later.
