Kelantan: Kelantan Red Warriors (KRW) FC head coach Irfan Bakti Abu Salim said he was proud that the team had earned promotion to next season's Super League on merit. However, he said several technical issues involving the club's management must be resolved as soon as possible to ensure the team's preparations are not disrupted.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, the head coach emphasized that while preparations are progressing well, the process of signing new players, both local and foreign, has been temporarily halted due to these unresolved technical matters. He expressed confidence in KRW FC's readiness to compete in the Super League and acknowledged the hard work of the management in addressing these outstanding issues.

Irfan Bakti highlighted that until the technical issues are resolved, the club would not be able to sign any new players. He noted that the management is doing everything possible to resolve the matter, as the team needs a complete squad to face the more competitive Super League compared to last season's A1 Semi-Pro League.

The coach further explained that the club must fulfill all the requirements to compete in the Super League and expressed hope that the issues would be resolved soon. Currently, training is being conducted with 18 to 20 existing players while the team awaits the opportunity to strengthen the squad once the player registration ban is lifted.
