Afiq began his club career in 2014 with Najip FC (renamed as Najip I-Team in 2015) of the Brunei Super League as one of several youth internationals recruited by Johari Bungsu for a squad overhaul,[1] in place of a team that lost every game in the previous season.[2] He appeared regularly for Najip I-Team in the following season, scoring three league goals to help his club to consecutive third-place finishes.[3][4] He was selected by NFABD to play for Tabuan U21 in the 2016 season.[5]

Afiq trialled for and joined Brunei's sole professional club DPMM FC's youth team in early 2015.[6] He signed full terms on 15 January 2017, taking the number 17 shirt vacated by Na'im Tarif.[7] He was released from the first team in June during the mid-season transfer window, to allocate for Brunei international Hazwan Hamzah. He rejoined Najip I-Team since, and scored against Lun Bawang FC on 13 August.

Afiq signed for Indera SC in early 2019 and scored a brace on his debut against Setia Perdana on 15 February. He left the club at the end of the season.
