Azhar Baksin (born 26 November 1976) is an ex-Singapore international footballer who plays as a midfielder for NFL Division 2 side Admiralty FC.
Apart from his playing duties, he was also appointed as the coach of the Wolves following the departure of former player coach Mohd Noor Ali to Geylang United in June 2012.
A true veteran, Azhar has played for S.League sides Tampines Rovers,Geylang United,Home United and Sengkang Punggol, before switching over to Admiralty FC during the 2012 NFL Division 2 season.
Azhar scored a goal from the half-way line when he was playing for Geylang United against Woodlands Wellington in 2002, lobbing the ball past Woodlands' custodian Fadhil Salim. That goal was subsequently nominated for the 2002 S.League Goal of the Season but did not win in the end.
His honours include winning the S.League with Geylang United in 2000, and the S.League and Singapore Cup double with Home United in the 2003 season.
