Baihakki khaizan surprise visit to cerebral palsy football training
Club career
Along with Khairul Amri, Shahril Ishak and Hassan Sunny, Baihakki was in the pioneer batch of the National Football Academy in 2000. He started his professional career with Geylang United in 2003.
He has previously played for S.League clubs Young Lions.
An ever-present for Singapore so far since 2004, Baihakki Khaizan's rise to prominence has been an extremely swift one. He is recognised as one of the best centre backs in the region with his tough tackling no nonsense approach often putting fear into opposition forwards. In the National Football Academy age-group squads, he caught the eye with his 1.9m stature, instinctive confidence and composure at the back.
S. League career
Signing on with Geylang United in 2003, Baihakki took the Young Player of the Year award in his debut S.League season. After learning his craft alongside former Singapore international Lim Tong Hai – a player he considers a big influence – that year, the lanky defender then moved to the Young Lions in 2004 and captained them in the S.League.
He nearly missed out playing for the 2007 S-League season after MINDEF refused to release him to play as he was serving National Service. However, he got the green light after a few games into the season. In 2008, again, his army conscription clashed with his football career, and thus he missed the first few games of the new season for the team that he newly joined, Geylang United.
Persija Jakarta
In September 2009, Khaizan agreed terms with Indonesia Super League side, Persija Jakarta, along with his Singaporean compatriot, Mustafic Fahrudin to join them before the 2009–10 Indonesia Super League started in October. During his first season, he managed to score 3 goals in 39 appearances.
Persib Bandung
In a controversial decision, Baihakki left Persija Jakarta for fierce rivals, Persib Bandung at the end of the 2009-10 Indonesia Super League season. At Persib Bandung, he linked up with his Singaporean compatriot, Shahril Ishak, who also signed for the Indonesian club. Baihakki's stint at Persib was cut short as he was released from the club after 6 months.
Medan Chiefs
On 16 February 2011, Baihakki signed a two-year deal with Medan Chiefs worth approximately US$300,000, along with Shahril Ishak, who was also released by Persib.
LionsXII
Baihakki returned to Singapore with newly formed team, LionsXII, that was competing in the Malaysia Super League. He scored their first ever goal in their league debut against Kelantan FA on 10 January 2012. Baihakki went on to win his first Malaysia Super League title with LionsXII during the 2013 Malaysia Super League season.
Johor Darul Takzim (JDT)
Baihakki Khaizan signed a four-year contract with Malaysian Super League team, Johor Darul Takzim. After a series of unimpressive performances, he was de-registered from the squad on 18 April 2014 and replaced with Marcos Antonio Elias Santos.
Return to LionsXII
Baihakki rejoined LionsXII in May 2014. As part of his release, he would not face former club Johor Darul Takzim in their upcoming league fixture.
He will join Malaysia Premier League side Johor Darul Takzim II from 2015 for the remaining four years of his Johor contract.
Johor Darul Takzim II
Baihakki returned to Malaysia and made his Johor Darul Takzim II F.C. debut in the 2015 Malaysia Premier League season.
Warriors
Baihakki returned to Singapore to play in the S.League for the 2017 campaign together with the Singapore captain, Shahril Ishak.
International career
He made his debut for the Singapore against Hong Kong on 4 August 2003.
He was part of the team that won the Tiger Cup in 2005 and the 2007 ASEAN Football Championship. Then captain of the Under-23 team, he led the Young Lions out for the 2005 Southeast Asian Games in Philippines and also won a bronze medal for the 2007 edition in Korat, Thailand. He lifted the Suzuki Cup in December 2012, after scoring the eventual winner in the first leg. Singapore went on to beat Thailand 3–1 on aggregate.
Baihakki reached his milestone 100th cap in a friendly match against China on 6 September 2013. He was inducted into the FIFA Century Club in December 2013.
Personal life
Baihakki's father, Khaizan Muhd, died when he was three. He has an elder sister and a younger brother.
Baihakki is married to a Singaporean flight attendant, actress and singer, Norfasarie. They had been engaged since 1 April 2007. Their first child, Mika Bazil, a boy, was born on 24 April 2009. Their 2nd child, a girl named Moza Alyka, was born on April 2011.
