KUALA LUMPUR: As anticipation builds ahead of the upcoming M-League season, Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT) have once again captured the attention of football fans with a mysterious addition to their squad.
In a less than 40-second teaser shared on their social media platforms, the reigning champions unveiled their new goalkeeper kit for the 2024-2025 season.
However, what stole the spotlight was not only the stylish attire but also the enigmatic figure standing alongside familiar faces.
While goalkeepers Ahmad Syihan Hazmi and Farizal Marlias confidently showcased their respective blue and green kits, a third figure wearing purple attire, remained mysterious.
Sporting a full-faced ski mask paired with oversized sunglasses, the new arrival's identity was deliberately concealed, leaving fans speculating about the player's identity.
Speculation was rife last month when reports surfaced suggesting that the Southern Tigers were in pursuit of a new goalkeeper, potentially an import.
However, as the M-League kicks off on May 10-12, no official announcement has been made regarding the new addition to the squad.
With curiosity piqued and excitement mounting, JDT's cryptic kit launch has only added to the anticipation surrounding the upcoming season.
Football enthusiasts nationwide eagerly await more updates from the club as the mystery of their new goalkeeper unfolds.
