They trace their origins to 1924 and the old Kedah Football Association, before being privatised and rebranded as Kedah Darul Aman FC in 2021. Nicknamed Sang Kenari (The Canaries), they play their football at the 32,387 capacity Darul Aman Stadium. The state of Kedah is affectionately called Jelapang Padi, the rice bowl of Malaysia, and football has always run deep in this proud northern region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2024\/2025 campaign, during which this eye-catching third shirt was worn, was the club's 16th season in the Malaysia Super League and one of the toughest in their long history. Nafuzi Zain began the season in charge before club legend Victor Andrag took interim charge in November, and the Canaries finished 11th, winning six, drawing six and losing twelve of their 24 league matches. A three point deduction and a RM50,000 fine early in the season compounded their difficulties, and it ended in heartbreak as Kedah were ejected from the Super League and demoted to the A1 Semi-Pro League after failing to secure a national licence for 2025\/2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe knockout competitions gave supporters something to cheer. Kedah reached the semi-finals of the Malaysia FA Cup, drawing a season-high crowd of 18,317 for the clash with eventual winners Johor Darul Ta'zim. They also reached the last four of the MFL Challenge Cup and the Round of 16 of the Malaysia Cup across a busy campaign.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a rare twist, Brazilian centre-back Cleylton finished as the club's top league scorer with four goals. Ghanaian forward Ebenezer Assifuah, signed from Pau in France, led all competitions with six, while Serbian striker Milos Gordic and Haiti international Sony Norde brought international pedigree to the squad.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Surprise Shirts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55689571762552,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0509\/5564\/9221\/files\/Kedah_Darul_Aman_FC_2024_2025_Third_Shirt.jpg?v=1791237261","url":"https:\/\/surpriseshirts.co.uk\/products\/kedah-darul-aman-fc-2024-2025-third-shirt","provider":"Surprise Shirts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
