Faiq Bolkiah, the world\u2019s richest footballer, marked his return to football with a stunning goal for his new club.<\/p>\n

Bolkiah, 25, was born in Los Angeles, California and is one of several heirs to a \u00a320billion fortune as the son of the Sultan of Brunei. His father, Prince Jefri, has been known as a \u2018Playboy Prince\u2019 and once spent \u00a317million on Michael Jackson to play at his 50th birthday party. <\/p>\n

But, as a child, Bolkiah wanted to make his own way in the world of football. The Brunei international previously played academy football in England after being educated at Bradfield College in Berkshire.<\/p>\n

The member of the Brunei Royal Family played in non-league AFC Newbury\u2019s academy before turning out for Southampton, Chelsea and Leicester City at youth level, never making a senior appearance in England. Bolkiah joined Portuguese club Maritmio\u2019s B side in 2020 and played just three games before joining Thai top-tier side Chonburi to kickstart his senior career.<\/p>\n

Bolkiah left Chonburi in the summer and moved to fellow Thai League 1 side Ratchaburi. He's marked the move with a stunning goal. Bolkiah started on the bench against Police Tero on Saturday and was introduced with 20 minutes to play with Ratchaburi 3-0 up.<\/p>\n

The electric winger got himself on the scoresheet in added time to seal Ratchaburi\u2019s 6-1 victory with a stunner. Bolkiah picked the ball up on the left-wing before backing the defender into the penalty box and quickly jinking onto his right. After opening up space for himself, he whipped a curling shot from the corner of the box across the goalkeeper and into the top corner.<\/p>\n

Bolkiah ran off with his arm in the air as the emotion of netting his first goal for his new club was evident, despite Ratchaburi\u2019s dominance at the time.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The demolition of Police Tero was Ratchaburi\u2019s first win of the season after previously drawing and losing twice in their opening three league games. Ratchaburi finished 8th in the 16-team league last season, while Bolkiah finished 6th with Chonburi, who are currently winless so far in the 2023\/24 season.<\/p>\n
