Player profile

[edit]

Style of play

[edit]

Faisal is a fast, skillful and diminutive right footed winger, with an eye for the goal, who is usually deployed on the left in a 4–3–3 or in a 4–2–3–1 formation.[54] Although his preferred role is on the left flank, he is a hard-working, and versatile forward, capable of playing in any offensive position on either side of the pitch, or even through the centre; he is also known for his defensive contribution and ability to cover a lot of ground during matches, in addition to his offensive capabilities, despite his lack of physicality.[55][56]

He has often operated in deeper, more creative positions, either in a free role in the centre as an attacking midfield playmaker behind the strikers, or as a supporting forward, due to his passing ability, which enable him to link-up with midfielders, create chances, and provide assists for teammates.[57] He is also capable of playing in a more offensive central role as a false 9.[58] Faisal's resulting low centre of gravity, combined with his creativity, quick feet and technical ability, make him extremely quick and agile in possession, and give him excellent balance and control of the ball, which, along with his flair, intelligent movement, speed, and dribbling skills, allows him to beat opponents and create space for his team in attacking areas, or make attacking runs off the ball into the box.[59][60] He's regarded as one of Malaysia's most promising prospects in his youth.[61]

Goal celebration

[edit]

Faisal is nationally known for his multiple celebrations made in reference to his footballing idol Cristiano Ronaldo, whenever he scored a goal.[62][63]

Controversies

[edit]

Offensive remarks

[edit]

On 26 July 2023, Faisal was handed a four-month suspension by the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM), due to comments made to the media by the player after the Super League match against Sabah on 27 April 2023.[64] Faisal was brought before the Disciplinary Committee after being found to have violated Article 61 of the FAM Disciplinary Code (press statements) and Article 82 of the FAM Statute (contributions to the media) through the statement he issued on 27 April 2023.[65][66] According to the decision, Faisal was actually suspended for four months from 25 July 2023 to 21 November 2023. However, Faisal was only suspended for one month, from 25 July to 23 August 2023, of which the next three-month suspension will be carried out subject to good behavior for 12 months starting on 24 August 2023.[67]

Acid attack

[edit]

On 5 May 2024, Faisal suffered an acid attack in front of a shopping mall. This incident occurred after his national teammate Akhyar Rashid was assaulted and robbed a few days prior.[68] It was later confirmed that Faisal suffered fourth-degree burns and had to undergo multiple surgeries.[69] As of 8 May 2024, the suspect remains at large. According to some witnesses, the suspect managed to say "Good luck" to Faisal before splashing the acid.[70] As a result of the attack, Selangor, who was supposed to face 2023 Malaysia Super League champions Johor Darul Ta'zim at the 2024 season opening Piala Sumbangsih, withdrew from the match over safety concerns.[71]

On 22 June 2024, Faisal, who is recovering from a horrific acid attack, received a surprise visit from former prime minister Mahathir Mohamad at his residence in Shah Alam. He and his family are very grateful for the concern shown by Mahathir, who took the time to check on them.[72]

Personal life

[edit]

Faisal is married to Nur Syazwani Mizuana Shahril and have one child, Khalish Aryan Faisal.[73]
