U-19 Indonesian National Team Will Still Hold TC in Jakarta

PSSI ensures that U-19 Indonesian national team will continue to hold training camps in Jakarta.

While waiting for permission from the authorities, PSSI will impose health protocols on the players later.

Previously national team manager Shin Tae Yong had asked PSSI to bring the U-19 national team to South Korea. It was there that he wanted the training camp towards the U-20 World Cup next year.

But PSSI insisted that the initial stages of selection for the U-19 national team would still be carried out in Indonesia. In addition, Shin Tae Yong can still oversee TC’s senior national team later in Jakarta.

“I submit, not that I did not give (permission) to Korea. At the beginning we supported everywhere but because of the COVID-19 situation, what about the safety of my 44 children,” said PSSI Chairman Mochamad Iriawan.

“Not to mention the TC national team and senior team, is it possible to go all the way? We can’t guarantee that children will be safe either. So it’s very vulnerable.

“Shin is better here because he is clearly healthy here to go there. Because if he is not healthy, it is not possible (to return) there. If he comes here there is also a check with the protocol, there is also a SWAB test.”

“So the point is he will return to Indonesia. If we are training camp here, of course we will also accommodate, in fact TC was not only in Korea but also in Europe but in situations like this. So it is better in Indonesia,” said Iriawan.

Before appearing in the 2021 U-20 World Cup, Indonesia will first play at the Asian U-19 2020 Cup in Uzbekistan in October.
