No Luqman Hakim live on our channels yet, says RTM

Malaysian football fans may need to wait a while before they get to watch teenage star Luqman Hakim playing for KV Kortrijk in Belgium's Jupiler Pro League.

Although it had been reported earlier on Friday evening by a business website that Malaysia's government-run, national broadcaster Department of Broadcasting Malaysia (Radio Televisyen Malaysia, RTM) has secured the broadcast rights to the league, the department has issued a denial the following morning.

RTM has yet to issue any official statement, but it chose to refute the rumour by responding to Twitter posts written about the supposed rights acquisition.
