JAKARTA - The steps of a number of artists to acquire soccer clubs are expected to make the competition more competitive and the clubs to become more professional. However, the challenge of getting there is still a long process.

Football observer Tommy Welly said that the entry of the artist into the football club as the owner gave the public great hope that the long-awaited competition would return. However, Bung Towel - as he is known - said that artists must be able to balance business and sports.

"Don't let the achievement targets in creating potential seeds be forgotten," said Tommy as quoted by Antara, Friday, August 13.

"Artists must learn quickly in managing clubs to become more professional. The challenges in this pandemic period will certainly be greater. However, the magnetic power of artists can make it easier to attract sponsors to support the smooth growth of the club even though everyone is waiting for the kick off to start," he continued. .

Therefore, several acquired clubs, such as Cilegon United in Liga 2 and Persikota in Liga 3, are long-term projects that can be utilized by artists in developing national football.

Previously, YouTuber Atta Halilintar officially acquired the PSG Pati football club and changed its name to AHHA PS Pati. "Meeting his match club, PSG Pati, has Saiful Arifin. Interested in him because they have a training ground under elementary, junior high school, to become great players to become an academy," said Atta at a press conference in Jakarta, Monday, June 14 last.

Atta admitted that he fell in love with PSG Pati because it had an early coaching system which he thought would be very good for the future of the Indonesian football world.

Meanwhile, artist Gading Marten acquired Persikota Tangerang in early June 2021 following Raffi Ahmad, who first acquired Cilegon United and changed it to RANS Cilegon FC.
