“We are excited to work with our new patron as we continue to strive for excellence on and off the field,” according to the post.
On Wednesday (June 7), Fahmi, who is Lembah Pantai MP, agreed to be KL City’s patron after receiving the offer from Kuala Lumpur Football Association (KLFA) president Khalid Abdul Samad.
Previously, Arau MP Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim was appointed as KL City’s patron in August last year, after former Communications and Multimedia Minister Tan Sri Annuar Musa resigned from the post.
KL City are now in sixth position in the Super League 2023, after collecting 23 points from 14 matches.
