Bukit Jalil pitch to be used only by Malaysia, promises Tony Fernandes

The Bukit Jalil National Stadium is now officially the home of the Malaysia national team.

The deal was officiated with a memorandum signing ceremony held at the stadium on Thursday, between the Malaysian FA (FAM) president Dato' Hamidin Amin and Malaysia Stadium Board (PSM) chairman Tan Sri Tony Fernandes, with Minister of Youth and Sports Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman in attendance.

The arrangement will see the Harimau Malaya playing all their upcoming World Cup/Asian Cup qualifying home matches, as well as their 2020 AFF Championship home encounters at the venue.
