Football career
Born in Novi Pazar, SR Serbia, SFR Yugoslavia, Fahrudin started playing in the youth team of FK Novi Pazar when he was 10.[1] He played in the youth teams until 2000, when he joined the senior squad and spent two seasons in the Second League of FR Yugoslavia.[2]
In January 2002, Fahrudin was brought to Singapore with the help of fellow Serbian and Tampines Rovers player, Sead Muratović.[1] Impressive displays in his first two seasons earned him citizenship.
Fahrudin, or Farra as he is affectionately known by fans of the Tampines Rovers and the national team, made his debut for the national team in a friendly against Denmark in January 2006.
Known as a tenacious player, Fahrudin became a pivotal member of the national set-up with his crisp passing and tight marking ability. He is also proficient in taking penalties and was the first-choice penalty taker for both club and country.
Fahrudin was also part of the national side that took part at the 2007 AFF Championship, where he played a key role in helping Singapore retain their title. He scored his first goal for Singapore in the final through a controversial penalty against Thailand at the National Stadium.
In September 2009, Fahrudin went to Indonesia to play for Persija Jakarta.[3] Following his release by Persija, he joined Persela Lamongan.[3] He returned to the Tampines Rovers in June 2011.
At the end of the 2018 Singapore Premier League, Fahrudin announced his retirement from professional football, having played more than 300 official games for Tampines Rovers.[4]
