Club career

Chan Yiu Lun started his football career at Sing Tao FC. He saw Wei Kwan Lung as his idol because his pace and shooting abilities impressed him greatly. Wei Kwan Lung was later banned from football for match-fixing, but he still encouraged Chan to play and not follow in his footsteps.[1]

Sun Hei SC

Chan Yiu Lun scored in the extra time of the 2008-09 Hong Kong Senior Challenge Shield semi-final against Fourways Rangers to win the match 1:0 and take Sun Hei SC to the final.[2]

Rangers FC

Pontic FC and Double Flower FC

Chan Yiu Lun has reached an understanding to join Pontic FC for the 2011-12 Hong Kong First Division League season,[4] but in the end Pontic gave up its promotion due to funding issues and Chan Yiu Lun is left with no club to play for. He played for Double Flower FC in the second division and waited to see if any opportunities come up in the 2011–12 season.[5]

Sun Hei SC

On 11 January 2012, Chan Yiu Lun returned to his former club Sun Hei. Because coach Ricardo is in need of more players due to the suspension of Kilama and Milovanovic following the match against TSW Pegasus FC, when both were sent off and therefore suspended.[6]
