Club career

Kota Ranger

In 2016, Faturrahman was scouted by Kota Ranger FC while attending Institut Tahfiz Al-Quran Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah at the age of 16 and joined the first team the following year in the 2017–18 Brunei Super League. [2] [3] He scored his first two career goals in a 2–1 victory over Najip I-Team on 3 May 2017. [3] He contributed six goals in an impressive first season where the Rangers finished just three points behind league champions MS ABDB in second place. [4]

The following 2018–19 season saw the addition of talented youngster Nur Asyraffahmi Norsamri to the team who gave a major contribution to Kota Ranger's first ever FA Cup final victory. [5] Faturrahman scored a total of five league goals for the campaign where his team finished in fifth position. [6]

Faturrahman scored five further goals including a hat-trick against BAKES FC at the 2021 Brunei Super League before the league was abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [7] He briefly left for further studies at the Ma’had Qiraat Al-Shoubra in Cairo, Egypt in October 2022. [8] [9] He returned in the middle of the 2023 Brunei Super League campaign, registering three goals for the Rangers as they finished third, seven points behind runaway champions Kasuka FC. [10]

DPMM

In March 2024, Faturrahman was announced on DPMM's website to be one of several new local players to join the professional club for the upcoming 2024–25 Singapore Premier League. [11] He officially signed for the royalty-owned club on 9 May. [12]

International career

Faturrahman was called up by Mario Rivera for the Brunei national team in February 2024 and was subsequently brought to Saudi Arabia for the newly created 2024 FIFA Series in the following month. [1] He made his international debut as a second-half substitute in a 2–0 defeat to Bermuda on 22 March 2024. [13]

Despite the lack of minutes for his club, Faturrahman was selected by interim head coach Jamie McAllister for Brunei's play-off tie against Macau for a spot at the third qualifying round of the 2027 Asian Cup in September 2024. [14] He featured as a substitute in both fixtures where Brunei overcame their opponents with a 4–0 aggregate score. [15]

Faturrahman was given a starting berth alongside Razimie Ramlli by new head coach Vinícius Eutrópio in a friendly against Russia on 15 November 2024. [16] The powerful opponents were 11–0 victors in the match.
