On 24 September 2022, Tan Cheng Hoe appointed as Selangor first team head coach.[20][21] Tan, who took the helm of Selangor in September 2022, has been instrumental in the club's recent successes, notably leading them to runner-up positions in both the 2022 Malaysia Cup and the 2023 Malaysia Super League. Such feats not only elevated the team's standing but also secured their spot in the prestigious AFC Champions League 2 for 2024/2025 season group stage. The mutual decision for Cheng Hoe to leave was made smoother with a compensation fee received by Selangor upon his contract termination, highlighting the amicable nature of his departure. [22]
