Personal life
On 24 May 2016 Theerathon married Chatrakamol Muangman in a tradtitional ceremony. The wedding was attended by many teammates and staff from the teams Theerathon had played for.[1]
Club career
Theerathon started almost every match for Buriram due to his superb and consistent form. Theerathon is a major part of Buriram United's success, his free kicks assisted and scored many goals for the club. His free kick against FC Seoul in the 2013 AFC Champions League qualified Buriram to the knockout phase. In the 2013 Thai Premier League Theerathon scored 3 goals against BEC Tero Sasana, Chonburi, and Ratchaburi. In May 2016 it was announced that after spending six years with Buriram United he would be joining arch rivals Muangthong United the following month on a five-year contract for an all-time record for highest football transfer fee for Thai League 1 at 35 million Baht. That record was soon broken on 2 November 2016 by Tanaboon Kesarat. The transfer fee is undisclosed but it is estimated to be around 50 million Baht.[2]

International career
Theerathon played against Saudi Arabia in the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification (AFC) and received a red card in the 90th minute. After that match he went to Indonesia to play for Thailand U-23 in the 2011 Southeast Asian Games. He was Thailand U-23's starter and received an early yellow card, followed by a second one a few minutes after which resulted in a red card, thus becoming the first player in Thai football to get two red cards in three days.
Theerathon's scored a penalty in a friendly match against Laos. His second international goal is a rebound from Jakkraphan Pornsai's free kick. His form in the 2012 AFF Suzuki Cup is very impressive combined with Anucha Kitpongsri who played on the left side of the field.
He represented Thailand U-23 at the 2013 Southeast Asian Games, and is selected as captain for the tournament.
In May 2015, he captained Thailand to play in the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification (AFC) against Vietnam.
