JAKARTA - The Persija Jakarta transfer market ahead of the second round of the 2025/2026 Super League is heating up. The Kemayoran Tigers are even reportedly ready to spend a total of IDR 10.86 billion to attract two names.

Regarding the rumors of the player who was shot by Persija Jakarta, the first name was on the naturalized player as well as the Indonesian national team player, Ivar Jenner.

The midfielder does have a market value of around IDR 5.21 billion and his name is said to be the main target to strengthen Persija's midfield in the second half of the season.

The issue of Ivar getting stronger after the Director of Persija, Mohamad Prapanca, gave a firm signal regarding the club's big shopping plan.

"Back again, to strengthen the squad, it's not me (decision). If that's the coach (Mauricio Souza) it's necessary, he (Ivar Jenner) is to strengthen the squad, yes, why not? We are always open as far as we are still on track of our financial budget," said Prapanca in response to the issue of Ivar Jenner's joining chance.

On another occasion, Prapanca also revealed that Persija was not only chasing one name. There are more than four players on the list to improve unstable performance in the first round.

Another player candidate who is on Persija's radar and no less stole the show is Ricky Kambuaya from Dewa United. The 29-year-old midfielder has a market value of around IDR 5.65 billion and is considered suitable for strengthening the Persija sector.

Dewa United is currently still at the bottom of the standings. This makes the rumors of some players leaving more likely.

If the two players are combined, the total market value will reach Rp10.86 billion, which is later referred to as the funds that Persija is currently preparing.

Moreover, Ivar and Kambuaya are considered to have different characters, but complement each other. Ivar is known as a more creative and mobile player, while Ricky is known to be a hard worker with a mature experience.

The two names are increasingly becoming an interesting topic of conversation considering that the Persija midfield is currently in the spotlight throughout the first round.

The unstable game transition makes management believed to want to make a significant overhaul.

The arrival of the two high-value midfielders could change the dynamics of the game and significantly increase the squad's depth.
