Excited Ng Completes First Step to Donning Lions Jersey
The Straits Times
|March 22, 2025
Cardiff City right-back Perry Ng is one step closer to playing for the Singapore football team after he received his permanent residency on March 21.
In an Instagram story posted on the same day, the 28-year-old was seen standing outside the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority building in Kallang Road, proudly flashing his blue identity card with the name Ng Perry Tian Hee.
He said: "Hello Singapore, I've taken my first steps to putting on the red jersey. I'm a bit jet-lagged but I'm so excited and I'll see you all soon."
Ng travelled from England to Singapore on March 18 to train with the Lions during the international break. While he is not in the Lions' squad for the friendly against Nepal on March 21 and the Asian Cup qualifier against Hong Kong on March 25—both matches are at the National Stadium—his PR status will be a boost as he seeks to obtain Singapore citizenship and represent the Republic.
