Career

Playing career

Poon started his career with Hong Kong top flight side Hong Kong Rangers.[1] In 2001, he signed for Fukien in the Hong Kong second division, helping them earn promotion to the Hong Kong top flight.[2]

Managerial career

In 2014, Poon was appointed assistant manager of Hong Kong club Wong Tai Sin, where he said, "When I first debuted, I had a poor relationship with the media and the class owner. Naturally, my player career was not ideal."[3] In 2018, Poon was appointed manager of Meixian Tiehan in the Chinese second division, becoming the first Hong Kong manager in Chinese professional football, where he said, " "The pace of the Mainland is slow, and I don't have many friends , it's really difficult to adapt. But at that time, I thought of learning from the Mainland and paving the way for my coaching career. I didn't consider whether my income would be more than that of Hong Kong."[4] In 2019, he was appointed assistant manager of Chinese third division team Shenzhen Bogang.[5]
