JAKARTA - The League 1 competition will start on October 1. PT Liga Indonesia Baru (LIB) continues to take steps to finalize preparations.

On Friday, 7 August, PT LIB will hold a manager meeting. This meeting will not be held virtually, but face to face in person.

Several agendas will be discussed. One of them is the competition schedule. PT LIB will also use this moment to convince a number of clubs that still refuse to continue the competition.

As is well known, Persebaya Surabaya is one of the teams that still doesn't agree. It is hoped that, by conducting face-to-face meetings, the best solution can be found for all parties.

"We have sent invitations to the club," said President Director of PT LIB, Akhmad Hadian Lukita to the media.

Meanwhile, Persebaya claimed to have received an invitation from PT LIB to attend a meeting in Jakarta. The club management nicknamed Bajul Ijo hopes that there will be concrete answers regarding the club's unrest regarding the continuation of competition amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Persebaya wants clear and detailed guidance related to technical matters in the field," said the Persebaya Team Secretary, Ram Surahman, in a live Instagram, Wednesday, August 5.

Apart from Persebaya, there are four Liga 1 clubs that have not agreed to continue the competition. They are Persipura Jayapura, Barito Putera, Persita Tangerang, and Persik Kediri.
