Shin Tae-yong is seen still following the Indonesian national team account, but not with the PSSI account. Then, he also still follows the accounts of a number of Indonesian national team players, such as Ernando Ari, Elkan Baggott, Jordi Amat, Egy Maulana, to Asnawi Mangkualam.
Although it was reported that he had stopped following the account belonging to the chairman of PSSI, at around 16.00 WIB it was discovered that the two important accounts of Indonesian football followed each other again.
According to VOI's monitoring, Shin Tae-yong's Instagram followers, @shintaeyong7777, had been at 175 people until 13.00 WIB, but now it has increased again to 176 including Erick Thohir's account.
The issue of following each other on social media has indeed caused speculation. You see, PSSI was previously urged to extend the South Korean coach's contract, but no definite decision has been made.
Related to this, previously the chairman of PSSI ensured that Shin Tae-yong's contract with the Indonesian national team would be seen professionally. He said the opportunity for the architect to get a contract extension was very open if the target of qualifying from the 2024 U-23 Asian Cup group phase could be achieved.
"There is a task that we have agreed on. When we can pass the Indonesia U-23 team from the group stage, there are 16 (participants) to the last eight. Automatically we will extend the contract until 2027. That is a professional agreement," said the chairman of PSSI on the previous occasion.
