"After I finished playing in Liga 1 last season, I didn't train or follow the game. It might take a week to be able to play with the team, I need to improve my fitness first," explained Jaimerson.

"To face Liga 1 later, Persis must focus on winning the championship position for next season. We have many of the best players to compete to become champions," he continued.
