About Harimau Abroad

Harimau Abroad is a passion project born from the desire to discover and track as many Malaysian footballers playing outside the country as possible. Our hope is that by highlighting these players, we can contribute — even in a small way — to the betterment of Harimau Malaya and the broader Malaysian football scene.

We believe that success abroad not only strengthens individual players but also brings valuable experience back to our national team and domestic league. By following the journeys of Malaysians who are building their careers around the world, we aim to inspire fans, players and young talents to dream bigger.

Why We Track Malaysian Footballers Abroad

Over the years, many Malaysian players have ventured abroad — some quietly, without much media attention. Whether playing in relatively unknown leagues, small countries or even grassroots tournaments, every experience gained outside Malaysia contributes to the growth and evolution of our football culture.

At Harimau Abroad, we believe that every journey matters. It's not just about the headlines or the big names. It's about the quiet determination and sacrifices to become successful even in the toughest conditions.

By keeping track of these players, we hope to create a platform where their efforts are recognised, where fans can follow their progress and where the next generation of Malaysian footballers can find inspiration.

How We Find and Verify Players

The players listed on HarimauAbroad.com are gathered through a combination of personal reporting, scouting, public information and trusted football sources. We cross-reference social media profiles, club announcements, verified news outlets, match reports and direct observation to ensure the information is as accurate as possible.

That said, we acknowledge that football careers can be dynamic. Players move clubs, change countries or step away from football altogether. We constantly update and verify player information to ensure our listings stay current, but if you notice any outdated or incorrect details, we always welcome corrections from the community.

Our goal is not to compete with major media outlets, but rather to fill a gap — celebrating and tracking Malaysian talent worldwide in a dedicated, focused way.

Our Vision for Harimau Malaya

We are motivated by the belief that the strength of Harimau Malaya lies not only in the domestic league but also in the experiences Malaysians gather internationally.

Players who test themselves abroad bring back valuable knowledge, tactical understanding, professionalism and work ethic that can enrich the national team. Our vision is to see a future where Malaysian players are not only present abroad but thriving across Asia, Europe and beyond.

Harimau Abroad hopes to be a small part of that future by shedding light on players who might otherwise go unnoticed and by creating a space where their journeys are respected and followed.

Independent and Community-Driven Project

Harimau Abroad is a fully independent, community-supported initiative. We are not affiliated with any official football organisation, club or agency. This gives us the freedom to cover players objectively and passionately, without external pressures.

This independence also means that the project is run purely out of love for Malaysian football. There are no big budgets, marketing teams or corporate backers — just a commitment to celebrating Malaysian talent abroad.

Every profile, update and new discovery is made possible by hours of research, passion and the growing support of the Malaysian football community.
