JAKARTA - Persebaya Surabaya's foreign player slots have been completed to navigate the 2022/2023 Liga 1. The last name has been introduced, Tuesday, June 7th.

He is the Brazilian player Silvio Junior. This player was brought from the United Arab Emirates club, Musafi FC.

"Last piece of foreign players. Welcome Silvio Junior," the club said in a statement on their official Instagram account.

Based on data from Transfermarkt, Silvio has played in the Europa League several times. He is recorded as having defended ViOn Zlate Moravce-Vrable (Slovakia), KF Vllaznia (Albania) and Chornomorets Odessa (Ukraine).

With the joining of Silvio, Persebaya will certainly stop hunting foreign players. Previously, the club nicknamed Bajul Ijo had brought in Leo Lelis, Higor Vidal and Sho Yamamoto.

Of the four names recruited, only Leo Lelis has ever experienced the atmosphere of League 1 competition. He previously strengthened Persiraja Banda Aceh.

Persebaya Surabaya coach, Aji Santoso, said that of the four players, maybe only Leo Lelis could be played from the start in the pre-season tournament, the 2022 President's Cup.

"Other foreign players have just joined, so they still need adaptation. If they play later, maybe not from the first minute," said Aji Santoso, as reported by Antara.
