Negeri Sembilan

In 2022 he returned to join the team Negeri Sembilan FC on a free transfer after spent two years with the team in 2016 and 2017. Since 2022 he has been with the team for one years and has become an important player throughout 2022. He has helped the team secure fourth place in the Malaysia Super League in 2022. It is an impressive achievement as the team has just been promoted from the Malaysia Premier League in the previous year and had shocked the other Malaysia Super League teams because Negeri Sembilan FC was considered an underdog team. He has made 12 appearances and score 2 goals during his time with Negeri Sembilan FC since 2022 and made a total of 21 appearances and score 4 goals overall for Negeri Sembilan since 2016.
