Klok's readiness to represent the Indonesian national team during the international break in early September 2025 is also in the spotlight, as this is the midfielder's first call-up under Patrick Kluivert.

"Two very good matches. Enjoy yourselves and keep working hard. I'll also meet the new coaching staff and new players."

"My hope is to stay fit, healthy, play as long as possible, and achieve good results," said Klok, as quoted on the Persib website, Tuesday, September 2, 2025.

He also added that he had been working hard for a long time to be called up to the Indonesian national team. Klok hopes to make a maximum contribution to the Garuda squad in these two friendly matches.

"Why do I want to be a soccer player? Because I want to play at the top level and compete in the highest championships, win championships, and play for the Indonesian national team. This is what drives me every day," said Klok.
