Negeri Sembilan FC have taken another important step in shaping the club’s future direction following a productive meeting between Chief Executive Officer Faliq Firdaus and YAB Dato’ Seri Utama Haji Aminuddin Harun, Chairman of Negeri Sembilan FC and Menteri Besar of Negeri Sembilan.

The meeting, held at the Chairman’s office, provided an opportunity for both parties to discuss several key areas related to the club’s development, long-term sustainability and potential strategic cooperation that could benefit sport, youth development and the wider Negeri Sembilan community.

In a post shared by Faliq Firdaus, the NSFC CEO expressed his appreciation to YAB Dato’ Seri Utama Haji Aminuddin Harun and YB Dato’ SUK Negeri Sembilan for taking the time to engage in the discussion. Among the main topics raised were the club’s framework for the new season, including transfer activity and the appointment of a new head coach.

The discussion also touched on NSFC’s future business model, with the club expected to gradually move towards becoming an entity involved in sports facility management, taking inspiration from models such as RedsLand Urawa Reds.

A major emphasis was also placed on ensuring that Negeri Sembilan FC remains sustainable over the next four to five years. According to the update, the Chairman highlighted the importance of accelerating the implementation of the planned framework so the club can move forward with greater structure, stability and purpose.

Another key point was the need to optimise the recruitment and development of young players. This direction is seen as an important part of aligning the club’s football planning with its investment strategy, while also strengthening the pathway for local talent to grow within the NSFC ecosystem.

In his own statement, YAB Dato’ Seri Utama Haji Aminuddin Harun said the meeting opened space for discussion on youth development, sports and several potential strategic collaborations that could be explored for the benefit of the people and the progress of Negeri Sembilan.

He also stressed that strong synergy between the state government and relevant stakeholders is important in empowering the youth development agenda, while producing a generation that is active, competitive and better prepared for the future.

The meeting reflects NSFC’s ongoing effort to build a stronger foundation beyond matchdays, with focus placed not only on football performance but also on governance, sustainability, facility development and youth empowerment.

As the club prepares for the next phase, the message is clear: Negeri Sembilan FC are working to build a more sustainable, structured and forward-looking football organisation for the years ahead.
