KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 1 ― Super League runners-up Felda United aims to win one trophy next season despite failing to meet the same target this year.

Felda chairman Tan Sri Mohd Isa Samad said club president Datuk Hanapi Suhada was making plans for 2017 and the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Cup.

"Being the runner-up allows Felda United to accompany Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT) to play in the AFC Cup next season.

"We have not failed as being the runner-up is a big achievement,” he said at the pre-match press conference of the Felda Chairman's Cup, here, today.

Mohd Isa said the management has agreed to exercise prudent spending for next season although Felda United would make their debut in the AFC Cup.

"We cannot spend big as the financial situation does not allow it but hope  to do well with the existing team,” he added.

Former JDT II coach, ​​Azmi Mohamed will takeover as Felda United head coach  after Irfan Bakti quit for failing to achieve the aim of winning one trophy. ― Bernama
