Perak and Kedah Darul Aman have been handed two-season suspensions after failing to obtain the national licence required for participation in the Malaysian Football League next season.
Their football associations were unable to obtain the national licence for the 2025/26 season as their applications did not meet the financial criteria set out in the MFL’s club licensing regulations.
In a statement today, the MFL also said it has suspended Sri Pahang FC for one season after it withdrew from the M-League.
MFL said that under its constitution, any club that withdraws from the M-League will not receive any benefits from MFL and is prohibited from football-related activities.
It also said all three clubs will forfeit their entitlement to merit-based financial distributions after the conclusion of the 2024-2025 M-League season.
