Muhamad Nor Azam bin Abdul Azih (born 3 January 1995) is a Malaysian footballer who plays for Pahang and Malaysia national team as a central midfielder. Nor Azam was born in Jengka 21, Maran, Pahang and is the fifth of six siblings.[2] He was member of Harimau Muda B that competed in 2014 S.League.[3]

Nor Azam was signed from Harimau Muda B at the start of 2015 season. He made 12 league appearances during his season debut and would offered his teammate Matthew Davies genuine competition, but an anterior cruciate ligament injury in July 2015 ruled him out for the rest of the season.[4] Nor Azam received his breakthrough in Pahang when Azidan Sarudin picked up an injury early in the 2015 season. He took full advantage of it and the more experienced Azidan found himself on the bench once he recovered.[5]

International career

On 27 May 2017, Nelo Vingada called up Nor Azam for the senior team to play in 2019 AFC Asian Cup qualification.[6] During 2017 Southeast Asian Games in Kuala Lumpur, Nor Azam made 5 appearances and scored 1 goal.[7]
