“It will definitely add ammunition for the defense, but the kit also needs a striker and goalscorer who can move well without and with the ball and has a thirst for goals,” explained Frew.
“Shit, Paes, it’s surprising to find out that I’m an Indonesian citizen?,” Czeesza concluded.
According to detikSport, the truth about Paes’ swearing-in is quite surprising. Because PSSI has not yet provided any official news or information on this topic.
The naturalization process for Paes itself takes a long time. The goalkeeper is restricted by FIFA rules for players who can be naturalized and have never played for another country and are over 21 years old.
Then it became known that PSSI had filed a lawsuit with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) last March.
After officially becoming an Indonesian citizen, Paes has a great opportunity to strengthen the national team for the remainder of the 2026 World Cup qualification.
The Garuda team will face Iraq on June 6, 2024 and the Philippines five days later. All games will be played at home.
