Mohammad Helmi bin Zambin is a Bruneian international footballer who plays as a midfielder for DPMM FC and the Brunei national team.

Helmi began his career with Indera SC of the Brunei Premier League.[1] He moved to AH United for the 2007-08 season,[2] and the following year was selected to play for Brunei's sole professional club, DPMM FC.[3] He went back to Indera SC on loan for the two seasons the FIFA ban on Brunei was in effect.[4]

After the appointment of Steve Kean, Helmi only made 5 appearances in the 2014 S.League. Kean converted him to a right-sided full-back in the following season to help him gain more playing time. He made 15 appearances as DPMM won their first S.League title.[5]

International career

Helmi was with the Brunei under-21s that competed in the 2007 Hassanal Bolkiah Trophy. He made his full international debut for the Wasps in a 0–1 loss against the Philippines on 13 May 2008 for the 2008 AFC Challenge Cup qualification. He scored his first international goal against Cambodia in the group stage of the 2012 AFF Suzuki Cup qualification.

Helmi was a late addition to the Brunei national team squad for the 2016 AFC Solidarity Cup held in Kuching, Malaysia.[6] He started the first match at right-back in a 4–0 win over Timor-Leste.[7]
