HRH Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim (TMJ) cleared the rumours linking JDT to the signing of fullback Dion Cools from Belgium club, Club Brugge. The latter was thought to be unsettled in recent months and was eyeing a move away from the Jupiler Pro League to seek more playing opportunities.
TMJ also shared that in his discussions with Cools, the impression that he got from the 23-year-old was that he would prefer to continue his footballing education in Europe. A notion which the Regent of Johor agrees with but at the same time is confident is a time should come for Cools to move to Malaysia, there will only be one destination for him.
