“The best decision I ever made was coming out to Asia,” says Charlie Clough.
The Englishman is currently anchoring Port FC’s defence in their Thai League 1 title bid.
It was an unexpected call from a former manager that initially paved the way for the ex-Bristol Rovers and Forest Green player’s move to South-East Asia five years ago.
After a successful trial in front of the Crown Prince of Brunei, in 2019, he made the switch from English National League club Sutton United to DPMM in the Singapore Premier League, where he won silverware in his debut season.
In 2021, Thai top-tier side Nakhon Ratchasima came calling. Dubbed the ‘Great Wall of Korat’, he stayed for two seasons and donned the captain’s armband, until joining the ranks of Bangkok outfit Port in the summer.
Compared to the English game, the 33-year-old describes Thai football as “less direct and less physical”.
That said, the classic English centre-half, in the mold of Tony Adams, makes the most of his physicality and “should win 99% of headers”.
With two rhinoplasties to prove it, indeed, the 6ft2 defender doesn’t shy away from an aerial duel. However, he’ll “wait until after football to get another nose job”.
Since moving abroad he’s “never looked back”. “Be respectful, work hard and you’ll go a long way,” says Clough, who is now enjoying “a great life” in Bangkok with his wife and baby.
Clough looks back at some interesting career moments including hill runs with monkeys, playing during Ramadan, and walking out at Wembley.
