Negeri Sembilan FC appear set to say goodbye to Korean midfielder An Sang Su, after the player posted an emotional message on Instagram suggesting that his time with the club has come to an end.
Sharing a black-and-white team photo, An wrote a short but meaningful caption:
“End of the Chapter 2024–2026”
It was not a long farewell statement. It did not need to be. For Negeri Sembilan supporters, the message was clear enough. After two seasons with the Jang, An Sang Su seems ready to close his chapter in Seremban and move into the next stage of his football journey.
A Simple Message With Strong Meaning
Football goodbyes are not always announced through official statements. Sometimes, they arrive quietly through a few words on social media.
An Sang Su’s post carried that kind of feeling. The phrase “End of the Chapter” suggests reflection, closure and gratitude. When paired with the timeline 2024–2026, it points strongly towards the end of his spell with Negeri Sembilan FC.
The reaction from fans made the moment more emotional. Several supporters left farewell messages, thanking him for his service and wishing him well in his next journey.
One fan wrote:
“Once a Jang always a Jang. Terima kasih untuk khidmat anda di NSFC. Good luck on your journey.”
Another added:
“Good luck for your new chapter.”
There were also warm comments from teammates and fellow Korean-speaking players, showing that An’s influence was not limited to what happened on the pitch. He clearly built respect within the group as well.
A Midfielder Who Served The Team With Commitment
An Sang Su’s role at Negeri Sembilan FC was in midfield, an area of the pitch that often demands discipline, intelligence and selfless work.
Midfielders do not always get the biggest headlines. Goalscorers are remembered for finishes. Goalkeepers are remembered for saves. But midfielders are often judged by the small details — positioning, pressure, passing decisions, defensive support and how well they help the team connect one phase of play to another.
During his time with Negeri Sembilan, An was part of a squad that went through changes, challenges and rebuilding phases. In that kind of environment, consistency and professionalism matter.
He may not always have been the loudest figure in the team, but his contribution formed part of Negeri Sembilan’s journey across two seasons.
Part Of The Jang Family
What makes this farewell meaningful is the tone of the supporters’ response.
Fans do not simply thank a player because he wore the shirt. They usually remember attitude. They remember whether a player respected the badge, worked hard and carried himself professionally.
The phrase “Once a Jang, always a Jang” captures that sentiment perfectly.
For Negeri Sembilan supporters, An Sang Su was not just an import player passing through. He became part of the dressing room, part of matchday memories and part of the club’s recent story.
In football, not every chapter ends with a trophy or a grand moment. Some chapters are defined by commitment, effort and the respect a player earns along the way.
What His Exit Means For Negeri Sembilan FC
If An Sang Su’s departure is confirmed officially, Negeri Sembilan FC will need to look carefully at how they rebuild their midfield for the next campaign.
Midfield is one of the most important areas for any team that wants to improve. It controls tempo, protects the defence, supports the attack and gives structure to the entire system.
Replacing a foreign midfielder should not be treated as a simple name-for-name change. Negeri Sembilan must consider what profile the squad really needs next.
The club may need a midfielder who can offer:
- strong ball progression,
- better control under pressure,
- defensive discipline,
- leadership in central areas,
- physical intensity for Malaysian football,
- and the ability to fit the tactical direction of the next head coach.
That decision will be important. Negeri Sembilan cannot afford to simply fill an import slot. The next midfield signing must make the team stronger, more stable and more competitive.
A Farewell With Respect
An Sang Su’s Instagram post may be short, but it carries the feeling of a player who understands that one part of his career has reached its ending.
From 2024 to 2026, he wore the Negeri Sembilan colours and became part of the Jang family. He experienced the demands of Malaysian football, the pressure of representing a historic club and the support of fans who value effort and loyalty.
If this is truly goodbye, the message from the Negeri Sembilan faithful is simple:
Thank you, An Sang Su. Good luck in your next chapter. Once a Jang, always a Jang.
