Selangor see the positive side of missing Asian football
KUALA LUMPUR: Playing fewer football matches in the 2026-2027 season than the previous one is good for Selangor. That is how Selangor FC chief executive officer Dr Johan Kamal Hamidon sees it.
Selangor FC sees the fewer matches in the 2026-2027 season as a positive for the club. Dr Johan Kamal Hamidon, chief executive officer, believes that less football can help Selangor focus on their domestic league. Selangor missed out on the Asian Champions League this season but sees it as an opportunity to concentrate on the Super League.
The club played 52 matches last season, one of the busiest in its history, and Johan sees this lighter schedule as a chance to improve. With no international competition this time around, Selangor can give full attention to their domestic campaign. The club's target remains to improve from last season, and they are ready to embrace the pressure of the new Super League season.
