Chan once again followed Fung Hoi Man and joined fellow Third Division club Southern. He helped the club gain promotion to second-tier league by scoring two goals in nine matches. His long throw-ins were also a key to success.Chan became a key member of Southern after the club was promoted. He was a regular starting XI and eventually helped the club promote to the Hong Kong First Division for the first time in club history in the 2011–12 season.
As Chan is a fireman off the football pitch, he could not attend every training session. As a result, his role in the club was changed to super sub. He is often substituted in the second half for long throw-ins.
