Ng Wai Chiu

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

NG Wai Chiu (Chinese: 吳偉超, born 22-10-1981 in Hong Kong) is a Hong Kong professional football player. He has been capped for Hong Kong at various youth levels, including the Olympic U-23 team and is now a regular in senior 'A' internationals.

He stands 184cm tall and weights 77kg.

The centre back is noted for his strong aerial ability and calmness under pressure and is regarded as one of East-Asia's most talented centre backs. Ng's never-say-die attitude and professional approach to training is also noted.

Ng spent time learning his trade at various clubs, including a short spell in England when he was an apprentice with Southampton's reserve side.

Unsatisified with the Hong Kong League, Ng moved to Mainland to further develop his football ability. After gradually working his way up from the lower-divisions in Mainland, Ng now plays for the Chinese giant Shanghai Shenhua, and is the first professional player from Hong Kong to be in the Chinese Super League.
