Irfan Bachdim is a football player currently playing for the academy team of Dutch Eredivisie club FC Utrecht. His father, Noval Bachdim, is an Indonesian while his mother is Dutch[citation needed].
He started his career for Ajax, but moved to Hoofdklasse side SV Argon after 3 years. He became the top scorer in the league, despite his position as a midfielder. FC Utrecht scouted him and brought him to FC Utrecht. Now he is the first choice at FC Utrecht Junior team and sometimes playing for the reserve team. He made his debut for FC Utrecht in Eredivisie on 17 February 2008, playing 90 minutes against VVV-Venlo.
When the Indonesia national under-21 football team had a traning camp in the Netherlands, Irfan played a few times for the team, but he got injured a week before going to 2006 Asian Games. He still has a dream to play for Indonesia in the near future.[citation needed]
