Malik Buari (born 21 January 1984 in Accra, Ghana) is a Ghanaian football midfielder and left-sided defender. He currently plays for the Combined Counties League team Chessington & Hook United.

Career

Buari was formerly at Fulham, making his debut against Wigan Athletic on the 23 September 2003. He failed to score in the five first team games he played for Fulham before moving to Woking on a free transfer.

New Zealand Knights

Buari was one of the many signings made by new coach Paul Nevin intended to help improve on the disastrous inaugural A-League season. Buari impressed in pre-season but he really made a name for himself in Round Two. The Knights had held Adelaide United at 0-0 for the whole match when in the 88th minute, Buari released a 25-metre thunderbolt which went straight into the top corner to win the game and also secure the Knights first home win ever.

International

Buari made a handful of appearances for England under-15s and under-16s.^[1]
