Player Profile
The youngest ever player to don the Lions' jersey, Hariss Harun is undoubtedly the future of Singapore football. At just 16 years and 217 days old, he came on as a second half substitute in a friendly against North Korea and he has never looked back ever since. Being both a combative midfielder and a playmaker, Hariss is the complete midfielder that every coach wishes he has on his team.
His versatility is also one of his strengths as he has played at centre back, right back, attacking midfielder and when required, he has also played as a forward for the Courts Young Lions in previous seasons. Hariss is also a natural born leader. His great charisma has earned him the captain's armband as well as the respect of even the most seasoned campaigners in the S.League. The former MVP at Barcelona's La Masia academy in a recent training stint and S.League's Young Player of the Year is set to set the nation alight with his football brilliance in the years to come.
