Ignatius Ang Yu Heng (born 11 November 1992) is a Singaporean footballer who plays as a midfielder for Balestier Khalsa in the S.League.
Before Ignatius started playing in the S.League, he played for the National Youth Academy, having represented the Under-16 and the Under-18 sides. Ang also played for the H-TWO-O/ITE Dream Team. [3] [4]
Ignatius started his career with the Young Lions in 2010 and stayed there for 2 years before leaving the club. He rejoined the club in 2013.
Ignatius made his way to Hougang United after being released in 2011 by the Young Lions.
Ignatius was drafted by Fandi Ahmad to the LionsXII team in 2014 to compete in the 2014 Malaysia Super League season. [5] However, Ang failed to stake a claim in the team despite being named regularly on the bench. [6]
After Ignatius was released by the FAS, he moved to Balestier in January 2015 and enjoyed more playing time after earning the trust of coach Marko Kraljević. His performances for the Tigers saw him earn a 'Young Player of the Year' nomination. [7] During the 2015 AFC Cup, he assisted Jonathan Xu which sees Balestier Khalsa win 2–1 against Indian club East Bengal.
Following good performances with the Tigers, Ignatius choose to move to the Warriors . [8] However, this proved to be a wrong move as Ang failed to get regular game time.
Ignatius played for SAFSA in 2017, due to National Service. [9]
Ignatius will make a return to the professional S.League with former club, Warriors, in May 2018. [10]
Although he was just a backup player in the LionsXII squad, Ang was called up to the Singapore Under-21 team for the Hassanal Bolkiah Trophy, one of the much-respected Southeast Asian youth tournaments. [6]
On 26 August 2025, Ignatius was first called up to the Singapore national team for the local centralised training squad. [11]
