Warriors FC sat out the 2020 Singapore Premier League season due to financial and legal troubles.[1]
In November 2019, they were charged on court with 107 counts of not paying their staff salaries.[2] In total, they failed to pay more than S$350,000 in salaries to about 30 employees, including players, sports trainers and support staff.
2 days after the incident being reported, ST reported that there were 2 parties that were interested to take over Warriors FC.[3]
On 2 December 2019, the club's management committee said they had paid a total of S$150,000 in salaries to half of its football squad to settle arrears.[4]
On 31 December 2019, FAS had instructed Warriors FC to sit out the 2020 Singapore Premier League season due to their financial issue and legal troubles.[1]
