Redesignation for PKNS?

PKNS FC could become a feeder club for Selangor next season.

If this happens, the Super League side will have to play in the Premier League next year.

Teams with feeder relationships are not allowed to play in the same division.

Johor Darul Ta’zim II (JDT II) and Terengganu FC II (TFC II) are currently the feeder clubs for reigning Super League champions JDT and Terengganu.

Menteri Besar Amirudin Shari is looking towards turning PKNS into Selangor’s feeder team.

Amirudin will meet FA of Selangor president Tengku Amir Shah Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah and PKNS president Siti Zubaidah Abdul Jabar to discuss it next month.

“If we can combine the budgets of both teams then we will be able to compete with the big teams in the M-League.

“(This will happen) next year, I am sure. After July, we will finalise the system from grassroots to women’s football all the way to beach football as well as the Super League.

“After I return from Paris on June 23, the blueprint for Selangor football will be ready.

“Hopefully, by next year we will have a new module. It is important to have sustainability. For example, PKNS have the budget, but do not have a large fanbase while Selangor have a bigger fanbase but have financial issues.

“When the season ends, we will announce the new formula,” Amirudin added.
