Kuala lumpur: All Super League clubs have successfully submitted budget and pre-season documents for the 2025-2026 season, in line with the Malaysian Football League’s (MFL) Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Chairman of the independent First Instance Body (FIB), Sheikh Mohd Nasir Sheikh Mohd Sharif, stated that the documents included the budget, sponsors’ letters of agreement, as well as the list of players, officials, and club staff with details of salaries and contributions to agencies such as the Employees Provident Fund (EPF), Inland Revenue Board (LHDN), and the Social Security Organisation (SOCSO).

He mentioned that a declaration of arrears as of June 2025 was also submitted in accordance with FFP regulations under Article 9(1) and Article 10(1), before the verification process by the MFL’s FFP Unit.

FIB is tasked with reviewing and assessing the documents submitted to ensure that clubs adhere to sustainable financial management principles in line with MFL’s FFP criteria. The submissions allow MFL to determine the total budget to be used for salary and contribution payments based on the salary cap of 80 per cent.

Following this, the FFP unit will conduct five monitoring sessions throughout the 2025-2026 season, with clubs required to submit reports on income, expenditure, salary declarations, and contributions every two months. The deadline to submit documentation for the first review is Oct 16, covering reports for August and September.

If clubs have arrears, the matter will be referred to the FIB for action under Articles 10 and 14(1)(B). The documents will be assessed in accordance with the 2025-2026 FFP regulations, and violations may result in action, including relevant penalties.
