Not Himself, Shin Tae-yong Only Loves Recommendations The Name Of The Indonesian National Team Coach For The 2023 SEA Games

JAKARTA - Shin Tae-yong will most likely not handle the Indonesian national team for the 2023 SEA Games. In fact, the man from South Korea will provide a name recommendation to be selected by the PSSI Executive Committee (Exco).

This was conveyed by the PSSI Technical Director, Indra Sjafri. He admitted that the name of the coach will be chosen by the General Chairperson of PSSI and the top management.

"I and the national team coach (Shin Tae-yong) only provide recommendations. The PSSI General Chairperson and Exco ranks remain," said Indra, as quoted by Antara, Tuesday, January 31.

Shin will not have time to take care of the 2023 SEA Games projective national team. The reason is that he will focus on building the national team to face the 2023 U-20 World Cup.

As is known, the schedule of the two events is fairly tight. The SEA Games to be held in Cambodia will take place on May 5-17, 2023, while the U-20 World Cup will take place from May 20-June 11.

Indra himself admitted that he was ready if he was later appointed to train the Garuda Squad at the 2023 SEA Games. He will focus on what he is assigned to.

"Whatever is assigned, I will do it," said the former Bali United coach.
