ALOR STAR – The Kedah Darul Aman FC board has today announced that Khamal Idris Ali has resigned as the club’s chief executive after four years of service.
KDA FC said the resignation would allow Khamal Idris to focus on his business and give another qualified and capable individual the opportunity to steer the club.
“We, the KDA FC, wish to thank him for all that he has done and sacrificed.
“All the best in your endeavours. Your deeds with KDA FC will not be forgotten, thank you,” the club said in a statement posted on the club’s Facebook page today.
Since being appointed in August 2022, KDA FC had made the semi-finals of the AFC Cup in 2022 and finished fourth and eighth in the 2022 and 2023 Super League campaigns.
Among the initiatives carried out by Khamal Idris were the establishment of the KDA FC management office at Wisma Perbadanan Kemajuan Negeri Kedah and the forging of a strategic collaboration with UiTM Perlis in the fields of engineering, medicine, sports science, marketing and psychology.
He also established cooperation with Kota Setar Kids FC and SMK Tunku Anum Tunku Abdul Rahman to find young talent and spearhead the collaboration as well as the club licensing process, which enabled KDA FC to compete in the M-League and AFC Cup for three consecutive years. – February 1, 2024
