Kedah splash big and eyes AFC Champions League spot

When the list of players were announced by Kedah's head of unit Anas Hafiz Mustaffa on Wednesday evening, the two that immediately jumps out are the signing of former PKNS FC striker Kpah Sherman and former Terengganu FC striker Tchetche Kipre. While both are subjected to completion or medical and signing on the dotted line, it represented the renewed hope The Red Eagles have on the 2020 season.

Sparked by the relative success in the 2019 season where they won the FA Cup and reach the Malaysia Cup final, Kedah are pulling out all the stops to ensure that their progress under Singaporean Aidil Sharin will be continued into the new season by shifting 40% of their players out of the new squad.
