Six young Malaysian players targeted by Thai League T1 clubs

A sports agency has recently revealed that six young Malaysia football players became top targets for several Thai League T1 clubs after their good performance at last month’s SEA Games.

The six players are defenders Adam Nor Azlin (Selangor) and Adib Zainudin (Felcra FC), Penang triplet’s Syamer Kutty Abba, Nor Azam Azih and Jafri Firdaus Chew, as long as the team’s star N. Thanabalan (Felcra FC).

“There are a few top Thai clubs who have made inquiries regarding our young players who starred at the KL Sea Games,” MVP Sports Agency’s talent director Hafizan Halim told Arena Metro.

“These clubs were attracted by our players’ abilities and are interested in holding talks with them.

“But it’s still too early, so it’s up to them (talent scouts) to initiate discussions with the players and their respective clubs for next season.”

Hafizan denied to name the T1 clubs involved, but he revealed that the interested clubs were based in Bangkok and Chonburi.
