The 2024-25 season is Geylang International's 29th consecutive season in the top flight of Singapore football and in the Singapore Premier League. Along with the Singapore Premier League, the club will also compete in the Singapore Cup.[1] The women team will participate in the Women's League.
Overview
Transfer
Geylang International FC is looking to bounce back from a disappointing 2023 season, where they finished 5th in the Singapore Premier League, a significant drop from their previous year's 4th place finish.
To address their scoring woes, they've bolstered their attack with proven firepower. Tomoyuki Doi, a former Golden Boot winner, joins the squad alongside Ryoya Tanigushi, Balestier Khalsa's standout player from 2023. The team also secured a loan deal for young winger Sora Tanaka from Matsumoto Yamaga.
Experience is also key for Geylang. Former national player Naqiuddin Eunos and Shakir Hamzah from Tanjong Pagar United add depth and leadership to the team. In goal, Hairul Syirhan returns, replacing the departed Hafiz Ahmad who moves in the opposite direction. They also signed U21 champion Keito Hariya from Albirex Niigata (S).
While they lost Yushi Yamaya (to Akademisk Boldklub) and Amirul Adli (joined Tampines Rovers), Geylang International FC seems to have made significant strides in the transfer market to challenge for a better finish in the upcoming season.
