The 2025–26 season is Lion City Sailors' 30th consecutive season in the Singapore Premier League and the 6th season since privatising from Home United.[1] In addition to the Singapore Premier League, Lion City Sailors are also participating in the Singapore Cup, AFC Champions League Two, ASEAN Club Championship, and the Singapore Community Shield. This season also marks the change in kit supplier from Puma to Adidas.[2]
Summary
This season marks the first for club chairman Forrest Li's appointment as Football Association of Singapore's Deputy President on 28 April 2025.[3] Captain Hariss Harun, general manager Tan Li Yu were both appointed as part of the four vice-presidents elected while executive director Bruce Liang serves as one of the three council members.[4]
On 8 June 2025, Lion City Sailors announced the end of Ali Al Rina's loan spell, with the Syrian returning to his parent club Al-Ittihad Ahli. The depatures of Spanish defender Sergio Carmona and Haiqal Pashia were also announced on the same day following the expiry of their contracts. Obren Kljajić and Anumanthan Kumar also departed the club on 10 June. Bill Mamadou left the club on 12 June 2025, after his contract expiration. He later joined Thai League 1 club Nakhon Ratchasima on a free transfer on 14 June.
Contract extensions were given to captain Hariss Harun, vice-captain and third captain Bailey Wright and Hafiz Nor, and also Rui Pires. Adib Azahari extended his contract on 27 June.
Lion City Sailors embarked on a new journey after signing a three-year partnership agreement Adidas, becoming the official kit supplier with effect from 1 July 2025.[5] Adidas will provide cutting-edge sportswear and equipment to support performance on and off the pitch. The partnership also aims to improve connections between the brand, the club and football fans in Singapore through fan engagement initiatives, community programs, and exclusive events.[6]
Lion City Sailors made their first signing on 6 July 2025 after announcing Safuwan Baharudin on a season long loan from Selangor.[7]
After a successful 2024–25 season, head coach Aleksandar Ranković signed a two-year contract extension on 7 July 2025.[8] Lion City Sailors made their second signing on 8 July after signing loanee Diogo Costa on a permanent five-year contract. On 10 and 16 July, the club announced that both Croatian goalkeeper Ivan Sušak and German midfielder Tsiy-William Ndenge had signed two-year deals respectively.
On 17 July, the club announced the signing of two-time J1 League top scorer Anderson Lopes on a three-year deal for an undisclosed fee.[9]
The Sailors started the season with a 1–4 defeat to Tampines Rovers, finishing as runners-up in the Singapore Community Shield.[10]
