Ali Ashfag (Dhagandey), considered the best player in Maldivian football history, along with several other renowned players, have signed for New Radiant Sports Club.

In addition to Dhagandey, Ali Fasir (Sentey), Hassan Raif Ahmed (Hanna) who left Maziya Sports Club, Mohamed Irufaan (Irey), defender Mohamed Nizam (PK), and young defender Ahnaf Rasheed (Ahukkoh) have also signed for New Radiant tonight.

Furthermore, New Radiant has officially introduced coach Ali Suzain last night.

This is the fourth time Dhagandey will be seen in New Radiant's jersey. He has won all Maldivian trophies with this club. Dhagandey first played for New Radiant from 2006 to 2007, then after playing for Buru club and VB, he returned in 2012. That season, New Radiant won all trophies with a 100% record, with Dhagandey playing a significant role.

Dhagandey, who also performed well with the club in the AFC Cup, last played for New Radiant from 2017 to 2018. His last stint with a Maldivian club was with Super United Sports (SUS).

Hanna, who signed last night, has played an important role for Maziya Sports and Recreation Club since 2023, and before that, he shone with Eagles. Hanna, who is still in the national team, and Irey, who played for Maziya for many seasons, have now moved to New Radiant.

PK recently played for New Radiant in the FAM League Cup while on release from SUS. Ahukkoh has also moved to New Radiant after playing for SUS, which has withdrawn from this year's first division.

With SUS withdrawing, it's reported that FAM is working to promote another club to the first division, and information suggests that New Radiant might take that position. This is because they were one of the two teams that last played in the second division semi-finals. With Tent Sports Club being the other semi-finalist, New Radiant is poised for the first division.
