Club career

Early career

Shahid started his youth career at Sutlej Club in Bahawalpur in 1994. His father also played in the same club earlier. He later represented the district and division Bahawalpur team, and was selected for the Punjab provincial team. He also participated in the National Youth Championship.

WAPDA

Shahid won the Pakistan Premier League for five times with WAPDA in 2004–05, 2007–08 and 2008–09.

Khan Research Laboratories

He moved to Khan Research Laboratories in 2010, winning the 2011–12, 2012–13 and 2013–14 Pakistan Premier League. He also won National Football Challenge Cup four three with Khan Research Laboratories, winning the domestic cup in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2015 and 2016.

In the 2018–19 Pakistan Premier League season, Shahid's stoppage time goal on penalty enabled leaders Khan Research Laboratories to beat Muslim FC by 2–1 at the Korangi Baloch Football Stadium. Te match was marred by a crowd of Muslim FC’s supporters trying to attack the referee after the final whistle for sending off one of their players in the second half. The victory enabled KRL to take their points tally to 32 from 15 matches, above the second-placed Pakistan Air Force, until eventually winning the league title again at the end of the season.

International career

In 2003. Shahid represented the Pakistan under 23 national team at the 2004 Summer Olympics qualifiers.

Shahid was also called by the Pakistan under 23 national team for the 2006 South Asian Games held in Colombo, where he helped Pakistan win the gold medal.
