Adi bin Haji Mohammad Said (born 15 January 1990) is a Bruneian international footballer who plays as a striker for DPMM FC and the Brunei national team.
Adi began his footballing career with Manggis United, coached by former Brunei forward Majidi Ghani. He joined newly-promoted Majra FC in 2007 and played for them in the Brunei Premier League until 2012, when his exploits on the international scene attracted Brunei's sole professional club DPMM FC to sign him for the 2012 S.League season. He scored his first goal for DPMM against Warriors FC on 23 June that year.
Adi saw much playing time as a substitute in the following season, but the squad played underwhelmingly and finished in eighth place, costing Vjeran Simunic his job. Adi's new coach Steve Kean in contrast was more reluctant to utilise him, restricting Adi to only 10 appearances in the 2014 S.League. However, he made most of his chances count, scoring in the final of the League Cup, and netting two braces against Hougang United and Woodlands Wellington in an August purple patch.
After a quiet 2015, Adi was given starts in all of DPMM's domestic cup matches for the 2016 campaign. He scored with a direct free kick in a 2-1 win over Tampines Rovers in the 2016 Singapore League Cup on 21 July.
