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.
In August 2007, he was Singapore's winner of Nike's Who's The Next contest,[1] and secured a training stint at Barcelona's famed academy, La Masia. He trained at the Catalans' youth academy for a week, with 13 other players from six Asia Pacific countries including South Korea and Japan. The youngsters participated in three friendly games against players from Barca's youth academy, where he was selected captain for all the games. He returned a week later with the MVP award.[1]
The former MVP at Barcelona's La Masia academy 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.
On July 2010, with the help of the Singapore national football team and Head Coach Raddy Avramovic, Hariss Harun underwent a unsuccessful 10-day trial with Chinese Super League (CSL) side Shanghai Shenghua.
