“I have decided to take a step back and handover the control of JDT FC to the top management of the club. 

“I wish the club and everyone all the best,” he said. 

His move means that he is handing over the day-to-day operations of the club, but will remain the owner and majority shareholder of JDT. 

The crown prince played a vital role in the team’s fortunes, as JDT have been consecutive champions of the Malaysian Super League eight times since 2014. 

Recently, JDT had also progressed to the second round of the AFC Champions League for the first time. – The Vibes, June 9, 2022
