Rafique has played in the ISL before with ATK scoring in the 2014 final. He played for Kerala Blasters in ISL 2016 but chose to continue with his parent club - East Bengal - last season with both the ISL and I-League running simultaneously.

East Bengal defeated Mumbai City FC in a Round of 16 game of the ongoing 2018 Super Cup but Rafique wasn't available for his team as he's out injured.

He has 10 senior India caps and one international goal to his name. He played the full 90 minutes of India's recent 2-1 loss away to the Kyrgyz Republic last month.
