THE Myanmar National League (MNL) will hold its 2026-2027 season with 12 teams. Due to team withdrawals, three clubs from MNL 2 earned promotion to fill the spots.
Following last season, Rakhine United and Yamanya United were relegated, while Chinland and Myawady moved up. Dagon Port withdrew, allowing Yangon City to join alongside other promoted teams.
The season will feature current champions Shan United, Yangon United, Dagon Star United, ISPE FC, Yadanabon FC, Thitsa Arman FC, Ayeyawady United, Maha United, Hanthawady United, Myawady, Chinland, and Yangon City. Fixtures will be announced later. Shan United leads historically with seven titles in 16 seasons. — Ko Nyi Lay/ KZL
