The challenges persist in Malaysian football, especially within the Super League despite efforts to professionalize the league. Launched in 2004 with the goal of achieving sustainability and quality, the Super League’s transition to full professionalism has been slow and financial difficulties persist among participating clubs.
The privatization of the league in 2015 under Football Malaysia Limited Liability Partnership (FMLLP) did not significantly expedite the professionalization process. The Malaysian Football League (MFL) is currently addressing potential replacements for Kelantan FC and managing financial concerns with Kedah Darul Aman FC and Kuala Lumpur City FC.
Additionally, MFL has received applications from amateur football clubs to participate in the upcoming Super League season. Financial stability and adherence to licensing criteria remain pressing issues with clubs facing potential penalties emphasizing the need for sustained efforts to enhance professional standards and financial sustainability in Malaysian football.
