Nathaniel Shio Hong Wan[note 1] (Chinese: ゆたか绍康; pinyin: Wēn Shàokāng; born 17 August 2000), commonly known as Hong Wan,[3] is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Malaysia Super League side Johor Darul Ta'zim.

Early life

Hong Wan was born to a Malaysian mother and an English-Chinese father in Croydon, England.[4][5] His mother is from Tangkak, Johor, Malaysia[6] while his father was born in Beihai, Guangxi, China.[7]

He started playing football when he was two-and-a-half years old,[8] and was scouted by Arsenal, Charlton and Crystal Palace in his first tournament.[9] He joined Charlton Athletic Academy at the age of six.[7]

Club career

Hong Wan came through the academy of Charlton Athletic,[10] before joining Yeovil Town in 2017. He was the captain of the under-18 squad,[10] however, he failed to make a senior appearance for the club.[4]

In 2019, Hong Wan signed for Wolverhampton Wanderers on a permanent deal.[11] In July 2019, he joined the senior team for a friendly tournament in China, Premier League Asia Trophy.[12] Wolves won the tournament with Hong Wan playing two matches against Newcastle United and Manchester City.[13]

In early 2020, he was loaned to Croatian side Varaždin, but made no senior appearances due to the COVID-19 pandemic before returning to Wolves four months later.[14][15] Despite failing to make any Premier League appearance for Wolves, he managed to make 21 appearances for the club's under-23 team in the 2020–21 Premier League 2 Division 2.[16]

On 30 June 2021, Hong Wan joined Malaysia Super League side Johor Darul Ta'zim on a free transfer,[5] because he saw it as an opportunity to develop as a player and play at a high level.[9] He made his competitive debut with JDT in the 2022 Piala Sumbangsih, the Malaysian super cup competition, coming on as a 90th-minute substitute.[17] On 4 March 2022, Hong Wan made his league debut in the first round of the 2022 Malaysia Super League against Penang.[18]

International career

Due to his place of birth and parents' origin, Hong Wan is eligible to represent England, Malaysia, and China internationally.[19]

In March 2022, he was called up to the Malaysia national football team training camp, ahead of friendly matches against the Philippines, Singapore, and Albirex Niigata Singapore.[20] However, he did not make it to the final 25-man squad due to lack of fitness.[21][22]

Personal life

Hong Wan's father moved from China to England at the young age and his mother moved to England from Malaysia in her twenties to pursue her studies.[8]

Hong Wan received his Malaysian passport and identity card in 2021 after joining Johor Darul Ta'zim.[23][24]
