Kevin Diks, Emstellar Loupatty, And Noa Leatomu Officially Become Indonesian Citizens

JAKARTA - Kevin Diks, Estella Loupatty, and Noa Leatomu have officially become Indonesian citizens (WNI) after taking the oath and pledge of allegiance to the Republic of Indonesia in Copenhagen, Denmark, on Friday, November 8, 2024, noon local time.

Naturalization of the three is carried out simultaneously. Previously, the request for the naturalization of the three players had been approved by the DPR RI on November 5, 2024.

Initially, only Kevin Diks was scheduled to take an oath in Denmark considering he was still defending his club, FC Copenhagen.

However, it turns out that Estella and Noa are also included so that their citizenship is complete at the same time in order to facilitate the transfer of federations to Indonesia (PSSI).

Kevin Diks was seen wearing a black coat and trousers wrapped in a white shirt accompanied by a red tie and a cap.

Meanwhile, Noa and Estella looked very elegant wearing batik cloth as subordinates and white kebaya.

Once the federation is completed, the three of them are legally able to defend the Indonesian national team.

Kevin Diks is projected to join the Indonesian national team which will appear in the Third Round of the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.

Nearby, the Garuda Squad will face Japan and Saudi Arabia on 15 and 19 November 2024.

Then, Noa and Emtella have also been waiting for a solid agenda with the Indonesian Women's National Team.

Garuda Pertiwi will play in the 2026 Asian Cup Qualifiers in mid-2025 and 2027 World Cup Qualifiers.
