Having established himself as one of Singapore’s finest young defenders across two separate spells at Hougang United, Lionel has taken his game to a whole next level since joining the Sailors in 2023 and is now emerging to be a key player for the Singapore national team.
The 1.84m defender is a key cog in the Sailors’ backline with his robust and no-nonsense style of defending. Having already made more than 80 appearances for the team in the past two seasons, Lionel’s experience and tip-top physical condition will stand him in good stead for yet another good campaign with the club.
