Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) F.C owner, Tunku Ismail Idris has been gaining traction online for his recent thoughtful action towards one of its star players. The Johor Prince was spotted paying a visit to JDT star Farizal Marlias at the hospital.
For those in the dark, the goalkeeper was involved in a scary incident during a football match against Terengganu F.C, which took place over the weekend. Farizal suffered an injury after colliding with teammate Shane Lowry during the 61st minute of the game. He was then carried out by a stretcher before being replaced by reserve goalkeeper Muhammad Haziq Nadzli.
According to a post shared on Johor Southern Tigers’ Facebook page, they informed that Farizal is currently in a stable condition. It is understood that the 35-year-old will be remaining under observation and will undergo several medical tests. As seen in the photos shared online, Tunku Mahkota Johor (or TMJ in short) was also spotted spending some time with the player at the hospital.
The comments section on the Facebook post has been flooded with netizens wishing Farizal a speedy recovery. Others also reacted positively to TMJ’s effort in ensuring the welfare of the JDT team players. FB user MizieLyn Hazmie wrote, “This is the real boss. He’s always there for the players during the hard times and also the good times. You like it or not, this is the first time in the history of Malaysian football scene where the boss shows that they really care about the players.”
