Pierre-Yves Polomat (born 27 December 1993) is a French professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Gençlerbirliği. Polomat moved to France in 2008 to join the academy of Olympique de Marseille, which he left two years later following off-the-field problems. He subsequently joined Saint-Étienne in 2010 following a successful two-week trial. He made his debut in a 3-0 win against FC Lorient in the Coupe de la Ligue on 26 September 2012. A regular in the reserves, Polomat joined Châteauroux on loan on 31 January 2014 to gain first-team experience. He was ruled out for two months after heavily spraining his ankle in his first game for the club. The following season, he was once again loaned in Ligue 2, this time to Laval. Polomat was a member of the France under-20 squad that won the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup. He made two substitute appearances during the tournament, including a brief cameo in the final against Uruguay.
