Luqman is worth a look

Expect the Terengganu-born Luqman Hakim Shamsudin to be on the radar of talent scouts or football agents internationally.

The Next Generation list has been announced by the Guardian annually since 2014. And Luqman is the first ever Malaysian to get the recognition.Asia-based football writer John Duerden wrote: “Malaysia have waited years for someone to replace the late and much lamented Mokhtar Dahari, who put Arsenal to the sword back in 1975, and this striker has been tipped as one who just may be able to fill those sizeable shoes.

The 17-year-old Luqman, when asked about the Next Generation recognition, said: “I’m very happy and grateful to be chosen.“I got to know about it from my coach. It’s a great recognition and something I would like to dedicate to my mother and father as well as my coaches. And also to Malaysians who always pray and hope for the best for me. Thank you.”
