Club career
BEC Tero Sasana
Chanathip was promoted to the BEC Tero Sasana first team squad by new coach Andrew Ord who had also been his youth team coach. On 6 May he scored a last-minute goal against Thai Port in the Thai League 1, which gave BEC Tero Sasana a 2-0 win. In early 2013 Chanathip had an offer from J.League side Gamba Osaka. At the end of the season, he won the TPL Young Player of the Year.
In mid-October Shimizu S-Pulse of the J.League offered him a trial at the end of the 2013 season. In late October it was reported directly from BEC Tero Sasana's General manager Robert Procureur that Bundesliga club Hamburg will give Chanathip a trial at the end of the 2014 Bundesliga season and if he succeeds he will be the second Thai player to play in the Bundesliga after Witthaya Hloagune.
Muangthong United
On 27 January 2016 it was announced that Chanathip along with his BEC Tero teammates Peerapat Notchaiya and Tanaboon Kesarat would be joining Muangthong United on loan for the 2016 season.[1] Chanathip netted his first goal for Muangthong United on 1 May 2016 when he scored from Tristan Do's cross in the 18th minute, in what turned out to be the only goal in a victory over Chonburi.[2] Chanathip later permanently joined Muangthong United for an undisclosed fee. He helped his club to win the 2016 Thai League and 2016 Thai League Cup in his first season.
In 2017, Chanathip Songkrasin greatly performed in the 2017 AFC Champions League group stage in the first two games against Brisbane Roar and Kashima Antlers which Muangthong United managed to collect four points. He was awarded as man of the match for both games.[3]
Consadole Sapporo
In December 2016 it was announced that Chanathip would be joining a newly promoted J.League side Consadole Sapporo in the summer of 2017 on loan lasting for a season and a half. On 11 January 2017, Consadole Sapporo officially presented Chanathip Songkrasin as their new player. This loan followed Chanathip's impressive performances during the 2016 AFF Championship in addition to Consadole Sapporo scouting him for a few years earlier. Chanathip played the first half of the 2017 season with his parent club, Muangthong United, before heading to Sapporo, Japan, in July 2017.[4][5]
On 26 July 2017, Chanathip made his debut for Consadole Sapporo in 2017 J.League Cup against Cerezo Osaka as a substitute replacing Ryota Hayasaka on the 46th minute.[6] On 29 July 2017, he was part of the starting lineup against Urawa Red Diamonds in 2017 J1 League.[7] This is his ever first match in J1 League. Besides, he became the first Thai footballer appearing in the top tier of Japan's professional football league system (Previously, other Thais only appeared in Japanese football semi-professional top tier or professional lower tiers.). He scored his first J-League goal which came through a header in his club 3-3 draw at Cerezo Osaka on 2 March 2018.[8]
