Nidzam not ready yet to take over at Selangor, his "former love"

Former Malaysia international Nidzam Jamil has proven to critics that he has what it takes to make it as a professional coach in the country's top tier.

Taking over at Felda United from former boss B. Satiananthan who left for Selangor at the conclusion of the 2018 season with mostly young, unproven players, the former Fighters' assistant coach led them to top tier safety this year in style, with a 5-1 mauling of Kedah on the final Super League matchday. He also guided them to the semis of the FA Cup, only losing to the Red Eagles, the eventual cup champions, on the away goal rule.
