2025 SEASON TO START IN MARCH

Football Association of Malawi President, Fleetwood Haiya, says the 2025 season will start in March with the Airtel Top 8 in order to reduce the tightness of the games in a season.

Haiya said this during the closure of the 2024 season when Mighty Mukuru Wanderers beat Mzuzu City Hammers 1-0 to lift the Castel Challenge Cup last Saturday at the Bingu National Stadium.

He said they are planning to replicate the football calendar of other countries and by 2027 this will be done.

"Next season we are starting in March with the Airtel Top 8 as last season we failed to do it as Airtel was yet to confirm their sponsorship so we are trying to copy the calendar of many countries so that we should not have many stoppages like the COSAFA tournaments." Said Haiya.

The Football Calendar in Malawi mostly starts in either April or May and ends before December to avoid the rain season due to poor infrastructure in the country.

Civil Service United are on the market in this off-season as they join Creck Sporting Club in the chase for Chitipa United hitman, Ramadan Ntafu to join the team.

According to Bright Lunda, the team is keen to have the signature of the player who scored 11 goals last season for the Basongo to solve the problems of missing chances in 2025.

After the end of the season, Coach Abbas Makawa said, "We have struggled a lot to turn our chances into goals because we failed to replace Binwell Katinji who was our target man in 2023 so we will have bring two or three players."

However, the team wants Innocent Msowoya to boost their midfield in the next season and are also reportedly looking for Frank Chikufenji on the left side and Precious Chiudza who can play as a midfield or a striker.

The Civil Servants finished fifth in the 2024 season but faced problems of scoring goals despite playing beautiful Football.
