Success is a word synonymous with JDT in recent times and that soon could see self-developed and homegrown talents achieving that for the club. [1/7]

There's very little doubt that JDT are the current powerhouse of Malaysian football with six straight Super League title on the trot as well as a smattering of cup success since 2014, marked by them appearing in the AFC Champions League group stage since 2019.

And it's not just about JDT pretending to know-it-all and do it all on their own - they have in the past not shy to seek help from the likes of Borussia Dortmund and Valencia in how to manage the development side of things.
