Selangor have never considered withdrawing from M-League

Selangor, the 33-time Malaysia Cup champions, have never contemplated withdrawing from the M-League, according to the club's deputy president and board member, Datuk Seri Shahril Mokhtar. The club's stance has been underscored in the wake of allegations of dissatisfaction following their recent FA Cup semi-final match against Kuching City.

Shahril emphasized that these claims are merely rumors that have been exaggerated, painting a false picture of the club's potential withdrawal. The Selangor FC board understands the far-reaching implications of such a decision, not only for the club but also for the broader local football ecosystem. Speaking at the launch and draw ceremony for the 2026 FAS Selangor Champions League, Shahril stressed the need for maturity in handling such matters, urging all parties to refrain from statements or decisions that could potentially harm the national football industry.
