Selangor captain and national skipper Shukor Adan is close in joining Brunei DPMM FC for the start of next season Malaysia Super League. Reports have also indicated that Brunei are now interested in signing his former team mates Indra Putra and Akmal Rizal.

Asking about which team he will represent next season. This is his answer.

"Currently, I’m having discussions with two clubs/states. Brunei and Perlis. Nothing has been agreed yet because both of the team have met my terms. "

Akmal provide his opinion on Shukor Adan moves to join Brunei DPMM FC. Akmal felt it is good to Shukor to move on as he still among the best players in the country.

"He is a good player. If he ends up in Brunei or if any player in the country decides to go to Brunei it will be a good experience for them because Brunei is a good team who are playing in the Super League. Brunei may also have set new targets for the upcoming season and they want to win trophies. Therefore they want to bring in the top players from Malaysia. It will also be good for the Malaysian players to improve because it gives us the opportunity to play abroad even though Brunei is not far away from us."

Akmal also explained the reason behind players exodus at his former clubs.

"Under the new management at Selangor many changes have been made. Some of the players’ contracts were not renewed because we were not part of their plan for next season. The new management wanted to bring in new players to the team."



Akmal Rizal is one of the most travel player. He caught the attention when he is part of Under 14 national team. Since then he train at FC Strasbourg in 1999 and was offer loan to their sister club FCSR Haguenau year later. Unable to tie contract FCSR Haguenau he return home in 2002 to play with his hometown club Kedah until 2006. Then he moved to Selangor and his last season with red giant was a dissapointing one where he mostly used as a substitute.
