Career

HKFC

Michael Campion played part-time football for Hong Kong Football Club while working as a wine importer. He scored his first league goal in Hong Kong Football Club's 2:4 defeat by Rangers.[1] He scored his second goal against Kitchee in the final match of the season.[2]

Citizen

He gave up his full-time job to concentrate on his football career upon joining Citizen.[3] Campion claimed that he had a stable job working for a wine importer with good income. But he had to entertain clients and he would rather enjoy football and pursue his football dream while he is still young. Michael is very excited about representing Citizen in the 2012 AFC Cup.[4]

Pegasus

On 6 June 2013, it was reported by Apple Daily that he had signed for the ambitious Sun Pegasus for the upcoming season.

South China

On 13 January 2015 news emerged that Michael Campion had agreed a deal to join South China on loan for the second half of the season and would wear the number 3 jersey.

gollark: Firing your pandemic response team a while before a pandemic is at least not as stupid as doing it during one.
gollark: I blame some sort of weird interaction between insurance companies, regulation/the government, consumers of healthcare services, and the companies involved in healthcare.
gollark: The US healthcare system is just really quite broken and there is probably not some individual there who's just going "MWAHAHAHA, my plan to increase the price of healthcare has succeeded, and I could easily make everything reasonable but I won't because I'm evil!", or one person who could decide to just make some stuff free right now without introducing some huge issues. It's a systemic issue.
gollark: Yes, they do have considerations other than minimizing short-term COVID-19 deaths, but that is sensible because other things do matter.
gollark: The US government, and large business owners and whoever else ("capitalism"), don't really want people to die in large numbers *either*, they're:- still *people*- adversely affected by said large numbers dying, because: - if lots of people die in the US compared to elsewhere, they'll look bad come reelection - most metrics people look at will also be worse off if many die and/or are ill for a while - many deaths would reduce demand for their stuff, and they might lose important workers, and more deaths means a worse recession
