KUALA NERUS: Terengganu have not ruled out the possibility of playing in the A1 Semi Pro League next season.
Their president Hishamuddin Abdul Karim said the club’s management were currently looking into the matter, which requires in-depth research and discussion before a final decision is made.
He said internal factors, especially financial constraints, were among the main problems that have always plagued the team.
“This matter has not been finalised yet. We are studying the matter if we intend to bring our club to play in the A1 Semi Pro League next season. The matter is not as easy as planning on paper,” he said.
“We are currently conducting training on the matter. Internal factors, namely financial and so on, are the main things that have always plagued the team.
“It can be likened to diabetes that is always bleeding and never heals.”
Hishamuddin said that if Terengganu decide to play in the Division Two league, the focus would definitely be more on the football development programme, in addition to resolving various internal issues within the club that seem to be endless.
They have previously been banned from registering players several times by the International Football Federation (FIFA) due to player payment arrears. — Bernama
