New KL boss Nidzam wants to avoid becoming club's next coaching casualty

Having been appointed as Kuala Lumpur (KL) head coach for the 2020 season, Nidzam Adzha Yusof is determined to avoid becoming the next 'victim' of the City Boys' coaching merry-go-round.

In 2019, they went through three head coaches; Yusri Che Lah, Chong Yee Fatt and Rosle Md Derus and it was still for naught. They ended the season in last place of the Super League, relegated, before failing to reach the Challenge Cup knockout stages.

But things are different with the City Boys ahead of the 2020 season; chiefly with the election of Federal Territories Minister Khalid Samad as the association president, and Nidzam, who previously worked mostly as an assistant head coach, will want to meet the objective set by Khalid for his charges; to win a quick promotion, in order to avoid the fate that has befallen his predecessors.
