And there is also news that the East Coast team, with a budget of RM2 million will also be signing up from KLHC the likes of Roslan Jamaluddin, Nabil Fiqri Mohd Nor, Ismail Abu, Azlan Misron and Tengku Ahmad Tajuddin.
Another player in the Terengganu radar, Mohd Razie Abd Rahim is said to have made a U turn.
The catch by Terengganu is a monthly salary of RM7, 000 with a year long contract and an option of two years.
Sapura also lost keeper Mohd Khairul and are set to lose Izwan Firdaus Ahmad Tajuddin to KLHC.
