Worachit Kanitsribampen (also spelled Kanitsribumphen, Thai: วรชิต กนิตศรีบำเพ็ญ, born 24 August 1997) is a Thai professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Thai League 1 club Port and the Thailand national team.[1] His goal during the Thai League Week 11 against Muangthong United is considered one of the top 5 goals of the round in an article by FOX Sports Asia.

Early career

[edit]

In 2009, Worachit joined Chonburi's academy at the age of 11. In 2013, Worachit went on a two-week trial with Thai-owned English club Leicester City.[2] In 2015, Worachit went on a two-week trial with Japanese club FC Tokyo.

Club career

[edit]

In 2014, at the age of 16, Worachit debuted for Chonburi's senior team in the second leg of the 2014 Thai Premier League against Samut Songkhram. In the same year, Worachit was loaned to Sriracha/Ban Bueng.

In 2015, Worachit was loaned to Phan Thong in the first leg of the season. However, he returned to Chonburi in the second leg. On August 8, Worachit scored his first goal in the Thai League 1 against Ratchaburi Mitr Phol. His following goal made him the youngest player to score him the Thai League 1, at 18 years and 340 days.[3] Worachit was subbed in the next match against BEC Tero Sasana. On August 19, Worachit started his first match for Chonburi against Buriram United.

On 14 December 2015, Worachit flew to Japan for a week-long trial with FC Tokyo, who finished 4th at the 2015 J1 League. He participated in the senior and U-18 squads.

On 27 July 2019, Worachit scored in his 100th appearance for Chonburi against PT Prachuap.

On 1 December 2021, BG Pathum United signed Worachit with a price of about 30 million baht.[4]

International career

[edit]

In 2015, Worachit was named as the Thailand U-19 team's captain for the 2015 AFF U-19 Youth Championship in Laos. He led the team to the semi-finals by winning every single match in the group stage, during which he collected three goals for himself. Worachit scored against Malaysia in the semi-finals and scored twice against Vietnam as Thailand won 6-0. Worachit became the tournament's top scorer with 6 goals.

At the age of 18, Worachit was later promoted to the Thailand U-23 team in preparation for the 2016 AFC U-23 Championship in Qatar. He scored for Thailand in his debut, which was a friendly against Suphanburi. At the 2016 AFC U-23 Championship, Worachit came off the bench in two matches of the group stage against Saudi Arabia and North Korea.

In August 2017, he won the gold medal at the 2017 Southeast Asian Games with Thailand.
