NPFL explains decision to omit Beyond Limits, register Heartland for 2024/25 season

The Nigerian Premier Football League (NPFL), yesterday, explained that it did not register Beyond Limits Football Academy for its 2024/25 season due to concerns regarding dual interest.

“This decision aligns with Rule A5.2, which stipulates the criteria for club participation. Heartland FC met the requirements set by the NPFL board and was the only relegated club to express interest in filling the vacancy.

“We also need to clarify that there was no slot buying transaction, as such practices are explicitly prohibited under NPFL rules. The NPFL remains committed to upholding a fair and competitive league.”

“While the NPFL rules do not explicitly foresee every scenario, the board has exercised its discretion, as permitted under the league’s governing documents, to ensure that decisions are made in the best interest of the league and its stakeholders.”
 
The NPFL assured stakeholders in the league that it would continue to uphold the highest standards of professionalism and to ensure that all actions taken are in line with its commitment to fairness and the integrity of the competition.
