Muhammad Al-Hafiz Hamzah (born March 15, 1984 in Pendang, Kedah) is a Malaysian professional footballer who has played for Kedah FA in the Malaysia Super League.[1] He has played as a goalkeeper.

Biography

He was a product of Kedah's youth system (President Cup team), and started in the junior squad during the 2002 season, but it wasn't until 2004 that he debuted in the senior side, replacing Megat Amir Faisal Al Khalidi Ibrahim.

In 2004, where Malaysian football introduced with Malaysia Super League, Al-Hafiz became a second choice goalkeeper behind Megat Amir Faisal after Mirandinha brought him into the senior squad. However, he had given a chance and made his debut in the first league match against Selangor Public Bank FC on 14 February 2004 after Megat Amir Faisal had a serious back-injury during the pre-season preparations.
