There will be a strong Lion City Sailors representation at the upcoming ASEAN Hyundai Cup 2026, with a total of 11 players from the reigning Singapore Premier League (SPL) champions being named in Gavin Lee’s final 25-man Singapore National Team squad.

Lions and Sailors captain Hariss Harun is set to feature in the biennial regional tournament for a record eighth time, having previously played in the 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020, 2022, and 2024 editions.

He will be joined by Lionel Tan, Nur Adam Abdullah, Hami Syahin, Kyoga Nakamura, Song Uiyoung, Shawal Anuar, as well as the Sailors’ four new local signings Ryhan Stewart, Glenn Kweh, Farhan Zulkifli, and Ilhan Fandi – forming a strong core that will represent Singapore with pride as they chase a fifth regional title and their first since 2012.

The Lions will kick off their 2026 Hyundai Cup campaign away against Cambodia this Friday, 24 July. They will then host Timor-Leste at the Jalan Besar Stadium three days later, before facing Vietnam away on Friday, 31 July.

The group stage concludes with a tense showdown with Indonesia back at home the following Friday, 7 August.

We wish our Lions representatives the best in the upcoming tourney.
