JAKARTA - The Indonesian national team will face Timor Leste in the FIFA Matchday agenda on Thursday 27 January. However, ahead of the match, one of Shin Tae-yong's mainstay players, Pratama Arhan, reportedly had a muscle problem.

Arhan's unfit condition was actually leaked by many Rumakiek a few days ago. In an interview, the Persipura midfielder said Arhan was injured.

However, according to the explanation of the Indonesian national team's physical trainer, Shin Sang Gyu, Arhan's condition is currently starting to improve.

"Maybe there is inflammation in the muscles because (Prime) Arhan has been playing continuously at the national team level from last year. But physically there are no problems, the important thing is to reduce the pain. If it decreases physically, there is no problem," said Sang Gyu through one of the staff. and assistant coach of the national team, Yoo Jae Hoon quoted from Youtube PSSI.

The news of Arhan's unfit condition is something that is quite a concern for the Indonesian national team. Because, Arhan became one of Shin Tae-yong's mainstay players. The position of the left back for the Garuda squad for the past year has almost certainly been occupied by the player from Blora.

However, if Arhan's condition is still in doubt, Shin Tae-yong still has other options. The South Korean coach could field Edo Febriansyah as an alternative and Alfeandra Dewangga who could occupy the left back position.

Regardless of Arhan's condition, the Indonesian national team players must be prepared to perform optimally. This is because the meeting with Timor Leste in the FIFA Matchday trial will take place twice on 27 and 30 January at I Wayan Dipta Stadium, Bali.
