Season review

edit

Pre-season

edit

The 2024–25 Singapore Premier League season will be the first season to be played having a two-year schedule where Balestier Khalsa participated in the 2024 interim pre-season tournament from 23 February until 19 April. The interim pre-season tournament ensure that the players are adequately prepared for an extended new season that will span nearly 12 months. The Tigers' 2023 season was a bittersweet symphony. Though their 4th-place finish was a record high, it came at a steep price: the departure of nearly half the roster. On 19 April 2024, Balestier Khalsa alongside Brunei DPMM and Laos club Young Elephants was invited by Malaysia Super League club Selangor to participate in the 2024 Selangor Asia Challenge pre-season mini tournament on 26 and 28 April respectively.

Transfers

edit

Top scorer Shuhei Hoshino, national team star Daniel Goh, and captain Ho Wai Loon all left for Albirex Niigata (S). However, head coach Peter De Roo remained at the helm, building a squad including current players such as Darren Teh, Ignatius Ang, Elijah Lim, Emmeric Ong, Japanese player Masahiro Sugita and Croatian player Alen Kozar. Returning to the team were former players Tajeli Salamat and Hafiz Ahmad.
