Kuala lumpur: The Malaysian Football League (MFL) plans to convene a roundtable meeting involving all Malaysia League (M-League) club chief executive officers and key stakeholders in the near future. MFL chief executive officer Mohd Shazli Shaik Mohd said the session had been planned earlier but was delayed due to several unavoidable matters. He said MFL remains open to suggestions and views from clubs as part of efforts to discuss the league's direction and address current issues. According to BERNAMA News Agency, Mohd Shazli stated that the meeting was originally intended to happen sooner, but unforeseen factors caused the postponement. With requests and feedback continuously coming from the clubs, MFL is prepared to organize a meeting involving all club CEOs, stakeholders, and board members soon. This announcement was made after a collaboration event between Konami and MFL. Mohd Shazli mentioned that MFL is currently working to identify a suitable date to ensure that the attendance of all stakeholders ca n be properly coordinated. He expects the meeting to take place before the end of April. Addressing perceptions that the proposed meeting suggests the M-League is in a critical state, Mohd Shazli clarified that the situation is not as dire as portrayed. He explained that the implementation of Financial Fair Play (FFP), now in its first year, will require time before its full impact on the league's stability can be seen. He compared the current situation to the Spanish League, stating that La Liga took five years to truly stabilize, while MFL is only in its first year and the process is still ongoing. Despite this, positive developments have already been observed from the implementation of FFP. Mohd Shazli emphasized that MFL does not view the situation as critical or the league as declining; rather, the meeting is seen as a platform to hear the clubs' voices and further improve on the issues raised. Recently, several clubs called for more serious discussions, including the possibility of holding a roundtabl e session involving all M-League stakeholders, particularly amid growing financial concerns among many teams. Selangor FC, Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT), Negeri Sembilan FC, Terengganu FC, Penang FC, and Sabah FC are among the clubs supporting the proposal. Recurring issues affecting the league include delayed salary payments to players and officials by several clubs, as well as rising operational costs compounded by ongoing tensions in West Asia.
