Club career edit
Tampines Rovers edit
Ridhuan began his career with the Stags.
Tanjong Pagar United edit
Ridhuan's next move was to Tanjong Pagar United. His performances with the Jaguars earned him a call-up to the national team.
Geylang United edit
Following the conclusion of the 2011 S.League season, Geylang acted swiftly to sign Ridhuan to provide competition for veteran goalkeeper Yazid Yasin.[4]
Back to Tampines Rovers edit
Ridhuan moved back to Tampines after a year with Geylang and was also retained for the 2014 S.League season.[5]
Hougang United edit
Ridhuan first signed for the Cheetahs for the 2015 S.League season and established himself as the first choice goalkeeper after starving off challenges from Basil Chan and Ahmadulhaq Che Omar.[6] Following his performances in 2015, he was subsequently handed a contract extension for the 2016 season.[7] He was, however, dislodged by new signing Khairulhin Khalid at the start of the 2016 S.League season.[8] After making over 40 appearances for the Cheetahs, he was retained by the club for the 2017 S.League season.[9] It was announced in late December 2017 that Riduan will be staying at Hougang for a fourth consecutive season after agreeing to a contract extension.[10]
In 2022, Ridhuan was ruled out midway of the 2022 Singapore Premier League due to medical reasons.[11] He was then released at the end of the season along with 3 other teammates. [12]
Return to Tampines edit
Ridhuan signed with the stags ahead of the 2023 Singapore Premier League season to bolster the goalkeeping department. [13]
He made his debut in a 2-0 victory over Brunei DPMM. [14]
