IPOH − Just months after being owned by a company, Perak FC are set to be sold to another party in the near future.

The club said in a statement, published on their official Facebook page Perak Football Club, that Perak FC were on the verge of a potential sale that could see the club change hands within a week after the ownership exchange process is completed.

Perak FC executive officer Muhammad Yunus Zakariah confirmed the statement when contacted by Bernama.

“Last December, Impact Media & Communication (IMC) Sdn. Bhd. held a 100% stake in Perak FC Sdn. Bhd. but the team’s management − under IMC − faced immense pressure following a financial crisis in early January.

“From initial discussions and evaluations, IMC may accept the offer from any party who wants to by the club,” according to the statement. 

The statement said the Malaysian Football League would be informed accordingly of the offer, adding that IMC would relinquish all its executive duties once the takeover process is completed.

Last December, the Perak Football Association (PAFA) announced IMC as the new owner of Perak FC after PAFA sold their 100% stake to the company. – Bernama, March 22, 2022
