The Super League of Malawi (SULOM) has issued a stern warning to football clubs against fielding players without proper transfer clearance as the league competition continues.
This announcement comes on the heels of a busy transfer window, during which more than 100 players switched clubs. SULOM is emphasizing the importance of proper documentation to maintain fair play and competitive integrity across the league.
Williams Banda, SULOM’s General Secretary, confirmed that any player who fails to present the required transfer documents will be barred from participating in league matches. “Strict enforcement of the rules is crucial to ensure fairness and order in the competition,” Banda said.
The warning serves as a reminder to all Malawi Super League clubs that administrative compliance is as important as performance on the field. Clubs are urged to verify all player registrations before matches to avoid penalties or forfeited games.
The league’s proactive stance comes amid growing concerns about player eligibility and transfer irregularities, aiming to uphold the integrity of Malawi’s top-flight football.
As the season progresses, fans can expect SULOM to continue monitoring clubs closely, ensuring that only fully registered players take part in league matches. This move reinforces SULOM’s commitment to transparent and professional football management in Malawi.
