KUCHING: Kuching FA squad will play three friendly matches in Malaya in mid-February.
Kuching FA head coach Ideris Untong said his squad will play the friendly matches in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor on Feb 16 or 17.
“Kuching FA will face Selangor 2 FC, Kuala Lumpur FA and UiTM FC.
“Within these two weeks, I was informed by assistant Faizal on the improved performance of the players after the friendly against JDT two days ago especially for the local players,” Suara Sarawak quoted him as saying in an interview at the State Stadium yesterday.
JDT team were greatly impressed by the Kuching FA local players for their excellent performance.
He added that the friendly was a trial session for seven foreign imports who were fielded in the match.
“So far, one or two foreign imports have been absorbed into the team.
“The important aspect for us is that the imports must be able to play on the left and right flanks, defence and attack,” he said.
He added that they were still looking for potential import players for the positions.
“We already have Yuta and Akira but still need two foreign imports who can play well in the team.
“Hopefully, we will get the players we want through the next two days of selection as the Premier League season looms,” he said.
Kuching FA will unveil the 2020 squad and the President Cup squad on Friday.
