Muhammad Azwan bin Ali Rahman is a Bruneian international footballer who plays as a midfielder for Brunei DPMM FC and the Brunei national team.
A product of Brunei's Sports School, Azwan first represented Jerudong FC in the Brunei Premier League at the tender age of 15. He was transferred to a national youth team (formerly the under-16s) playing in the Brunei Premier League II in 2011 and became their captain.
Azwan moved to Indera SC in 2012 and in the following year won the inaugural Brunei Super League, scoring 17 goals (including seven in one match) to finish as top scorer.
Azwan immediately linked up with Brunei's sole professional team Brunei DPMM FC and made 16 appearances in his first season with the club. The following year, he flourished in the first team with 6 goals in 26 games, receiving plaudits from his new manager Steve Kean who claimed that he would not look out of place in any top league.
Azwan started the first half of the 2015 season in the same vein, until he was sent off for unsportsmanlike behavior in the game against Tampines Rovers FC on 10 May. He began the second half of the season in hot form, getting on the scoresheet in 3 consecutive home matches. However, he again saw red for violent conduct in the game against Young Lions on 23 August. The league concluded on 21 November with DPMM lifting the title.
In the 2016 season, Azwan was deployed predominantly on the left wing with Ramazotti and Paulo Sergio occupying the other attacking positions as Kean sought to defend the S.League title using a 3-4-3 formation. His 7 goals contributed to DPMM finishing in third place in a season curtailed by an ankle injury suffered in June.
