The Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) has received a significant boost following the news that FIFA has officially cleared two key players to represent the national team. Prolific Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT) striker Bergson da Silva and defender Brad Tapp are now available for selection as the Harimau Malaya prepare for the upcoming ASEAN Cup.

A wave of top European league talent could feature in FIFA's newly launched regional tournament taking place between 24 September and 5 October. With 14 nations set to compete across two divisions, FIFA President Gianni Infantino hailed the initiative for providing meaningful international opportunities.

Asian football is enjoying an unprecedented boom across Europe's top five leagues, driven by massive contingents from Japan and South Korea. Indonesian talents have also made historic inroads by featuring in four of the top five divisions alongside representatives from Thailand, China, Saudi Arabia, and Australia.

SC Heerenveen have completed the dual signings of Indonesian defender Mees Hilgers and Iraqi winger Marko Farji. The Asian international duo arrive in Friesland to bolster Robin Veldman's squad with proven European experience and international pedigree.
