KUALA LUMPUR: National coach Chiew Chun Yong hopes the return of the National Futsal League in February will stem the flow of players to football. "It's a fact and reality I have to face when futsal players switch to football. It is up to them to choose but of course I wish for them to stay with the national futsal team. "The only way to convince them to stay is to have a professional national futsal league. "Futsal players who have better technique have the potential to do well in football," he said.
