Michael Xavier Campion (born 20 May 1984) is a former Hong Kong professional footballer who played as a midfielder. He is of English and Filipino descent.
Campion played part-time football for HKFC while working as a wine importer. He scored his first league goal in HKFC's 2–4 defeat by Rangers.[1] He scored his second goal against Kitchee in the final match of the season.[2]
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]
On 6 June 2013, it was reported by the Apple Daily that he had signed for the ambitious Pegasus for the upcoming season.
On 13 January 2015, news emerged that Michael Campion had agreed on a deal to join South China on loan for the second half of the season and would wear the number 3 jersey.
