Career

Asraruddin, a left-back for the Malaysia U-19 during the 2007 Champions Youth Cup, served as the team's vice-captain and assumed the captaincy from the injured Mohd Bunyamin Umar in the match against PSV Eindhoven.

In November 2007, Asraruddin underwent a one-week trial with Dutch club PSV Eindhoven. The club had been impressed by his performance, along with that of his teammate, during the Champions Youth Cup hosted by Malaysia in August 2007. [1] Capable of playing as either a left-back or a center-back, Asraruddin, a former student of the Bukit Jalil Sports School, was instrumental in helping Malaysia qualify for the AFC Under-20 Championship for the first time in over 20 years.

Asraruddin made his under-23 debut against the Republic of Ireland on 15 May 2008 and earned his senior international debut against the India on 22 July 2008 as a substitute. Additionally, he represented the Malaysia Selection squad in a match against Chelsea at the Shah Alam Stadium on 29 July 2008, a game in which Malaysia XI lost 0–2.

Outside Football

Asraruddin owns a barbershop called Piratas Barber Shop, located in Puncak Alam. [2] [3] He has stated that he is not considering retirement at this time; instead, he is focusing on recovering from a knee injury while making ends meet through his barbershop business. [4]

In May 2023, Asraruddin migrated to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, after marrying a nurse employed at a local hospital in the city. He stated that his intention for relocating was to fulfil his aspiration of residing near and learning about religion in Mecca. However, he has not announced his retirement from professional football. [5]
