JAKARTA - The training camp for the U-19 Indonesia national team has had two new faces. The two players are Kelana Noah Mahessa and Luah Fynn Jeremy Mahessa.

Both were called from the German club, Bonner SC. Kelana and Luah are descendants of Indonesian-German blood.

Previously, there were several names of descent players who were also included in the U-19 national team squad under Shin Tae-yong. Call it Jack Brown and Elkann Baggott.

It is believed that these names are not the last descendant players who were called Shin Tae-yong. He admitted that he was still looking for descendants to join the U-19 national team.

However, the coach from South Korea did not want to choose carelessly. He will only call up descent players who already have quality.

Shin Tae-yong revealed that he got help from the Indonesian Football Association in the search for players of descent. Likewise from the coach team and U-19 national team officials.

"We already have data on several players' names and have discussed with a number of descendants of players," said Shin Tae-yong.

The former coach of the South Korean national team said the players were seen based on curriculum vitae (CV), administration, video analysis. After that, the player is called to attend training camp (TC) so that his quality can be directly monitored

"In the next TC, we might bring in descendants while watching developments," said Shin Tae-yong.
