Singapore Premier League and Singapore Cup defending champions Lion City Sailors have signed Singapore international Ryhan Stewart on a three-year contract, which will run until the end of the 2028/29 season.
The full-back returns to Singapore after stints in both Thailand’s top flight and Lithuania over the past few years.
The Sailors said in a statement that the 26-year-old “will add quality and depth to the Sailors’ defensive ranks.”
Said Stewart, “It’s a proud moment for me to sign for a club with the ambition and stature of the Sailors.
“Playing abroad has helped me grow tremendously, both as a player and as a person, and I’m excited to bring that experience back home,” he said.
Stewart joins the Sailors following his departure from Kanchanaburi Power, where he made 25 appearances in the recently concluded 2025/26 Thai League 1 season.
He contributed to two goals and three assists.
He also featured in the 2023/24 AFC Champions League with fellow Thai side BG Pathum United.
Since making his Singapore debut in 2022, Ryhan has established himself as a regular for the Lions, earning 34 international caps to date.
Said Sailors Head Coach Jesús Casas said, “Ryhan is a player we’ve admired for some time.
“He brings intensity, discipline and a strong mentality from his experiences abroad. His ability to contribute at both ends of the pitch fits perfectly with how we want to play.
“We’re confident he will play an important role as we continue building a competitive and ambitious squad.”
