The T is silent as is common in South American Surnames.

It's Poyay, you've got to be pretty damn dumb to think that a name without a 'tt' or 'tte' at the end is pronounced 'ett'

Fernet Branca ... pronounced Fernett Branca. And there used to be an Italian politician called Carlo Donat Cattin ... pronounced Donatt Catt In.

BBC are pronouncing it POY-ETTT ... apparently after seeking advice

Guess I'll ask the man himself shall I!
