Negeri Sembilan are already gearing up for the upcoming season of Malaysian football, beefing up their squad impeccably to mount a title challenge in the Malaysian Premier League.
Up to now, the Hobin Jang Hobin have secured the signature of several experienced players in the form of Rudie Ramli and Rezal Zambery, who will come in with a wealth of experience, having plied their trade within the country for over 10 years now.
But more importantly, Negeri have also signed speedy forward Khyril Muhymeen from Kedah. The 27 year-old forward is not a stranger to local fans, as he is regularly called up to the national side, and should inject some much needed pace into the Negeri Sembilan set-up.
Negeri Sembilan means business next year. They have Khyril Muhymeen, Forkey Doe, Bruno Martelotto, Rezal Zambery, Rudie Ramli…

As far as foreigners are concerned, Negeri have also gone for the jugular, bringing in two names who are already well-entrenched within the local scene. Bruno Martelotto is the first name, and has played in Malaysia with two separate clubs, including ATM, while the other name is Francis Forkey Doe, who was recently released by Kelantan FA.
Both players are not only experienced, but they also possess a legitimate track record of doing well within the country. And with K. Devan being appointed to spearhead the coaching side of things, Negeri Sembilan are certainly on the right track to produce a strong challenge in the Premier League.
