Chan was a member of the East Asian Games gold medal-winning Hong Kong U-23 squad in 2009. He was also the captain of the Hong Kong senior team from 2010 to 2017. He is sometimes referred to as Tai Ho (Traditional Chinese: 大豪) as a nickname for him and to distinguish him from fellow former Hong Kong international, Lee Chi Ho.
Early life
Chan lived in Lok Wah Estate, Ngau Tau Kok when he was young[1] and he graduated from Maryknoll Vocational Evening Secondary School.[2] He moved to the player hostel of Rangers in Boundary Street when he was a vocational apprenticeship of Rangers.[1]
Club career
Rangers and Yee Hope
His father decided that he would join Rangers to be a vocational apprentice when Chan was 16 years old. He stayed at Rangers for some months on trial for a professional contract. However, Rangers only gave him a contract after several twists and turns. Eventually, he appeared for the first team a few times in this season.
In the 1999–2000 season, Yee Hope chairman Joe Chan invited Chan to join his team. Chan started his professional career in this season. His number of appearances did not increase after he joined the team, but Arie van der Zouwen thought Chan was one of the best centre back in Hong Kong and selected him for Hong Kong.[3]
In March 2004, Chan was suspended for 12 games after fighting along with four other Rangers players against Nan Shing Property FC players in a league match in Dongguan on 7 March 2004. The match was suspended and never completed.[4]
Chan's transfer fee to South China from Rangers was HK$400,000, which broke the record of the highest local transfer fee and highest transfer fee in Hong Kong First Division. The highest local transfer fee record was kept by Tam Ah Fook when he moved to Ernest Borel from Happy Valley by HK$140,000 in 1992. The highest overall transfer fee was originally kept by Cheng Siu Chung when he moved from LD Alajuelense in Costa Rica to South China in the 1994–95 season for a fee of US$30,000 (about HK$234,000).[5] But there was rumour in the media that the record has been broken by Chan Siu Ki's 2008 transfer from Kitchee to South China, which cost the Caroliners HK$800,000. The actual fee has not been disclosed.[6]
Chan wore the number 15 in South China to commemorate his former Rangers teammate Cheung Yiu Lun, who died in a traffic accident in October 2003. He was not able to wear the number 15 at Rangers because the number was retired after Cheung's death.[9]
Back to South China
Chan re-joined South China in the January 2011 transfer window. He had just completed coaching for the Fourway Rangers. He signed a one-and-a-half-year contract.[10]
Following South China's decision to self-relegate, Chan terminated his contract with the club. He was announced as a player and captain of the rebranded Dreams FC on 26 July 2017.[12]
On 8 June 2018, Chan confirmed that he had renewed his contract for the following season.[13]
On 26 May 2019, Chan accepted another renewal of his contract.[14] However as a result of Dreams FC's decision to self-relegate, Chan was left without work.
On 17 August 2019, he announced his decision to retire from professional football.[15]
Pegasus
On 2 September 2019, Chan changed his mind and joined Pegasus to be a player and an assistant coach.
Due to the financial strain caused by the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, Pegasus asked its players to either accept a pay cut or agree to a mutual termination. On 7 April 2020, Chan announced that he would terminate his contract with immediate effect.[16]
On 14 July 2020, Chan once again announced his decision to retire from professional football.
International career
Chan playing for the Hong Kong national football team
On 22 March 2013, Chan scored the winner for Hong Kong against Vietnam in the ]2015 AFC Asian Cup qualifiers. After the match, acting Hong Kong national football team head coach Kim Pan Gon said Chan is a top Asian-level centre back.[18]
Chan played his farewell match for the representative team on 7 June 2017 in a friendly match against Jordan.[19]
Chan scored twice in the 2009 East Asian Games, against South Korea[20] in a group game and against North Korea in the semi-final. In the penalty shoot-out against North Korea, Chan also scored his penalty.[21]
Chan became a father on 9 August 2010 when his wife gave birth to a son. He accompanied his wife in the hospital in the morning, then attended the Hong Kong national football team training in the afternoon.[23]
After retirement from professional football, Chan signed an amateur contract with Eastern District.[24] He currently works as a real estate agent during the day.[25]
