JAKARTA - The coach of the Indonesian national team, Shin Tae-yong, informed that Jay Idzes would be summoned to strengthen the Garuda Squad in the 2026 World Cup Qualification in April 2024.
This news is known from the latest upload shared by Shin Tae-yong on Monday, March 4, 2024. In the upload, the South Korean coach shared a portrait with Jay Idzes who had just appeared for his club, Venezia, in Serie B Italy.
Shin explained that he deliberately watched Jay appear for his team in an away match. Through the same opportunity, Shin conveyed a message that Jay would join the Indonesian national team.
Unmitigated, Shin Tae-yong even revealed the exact date when the Dutch-Indonesian player could join other colleagues at the Garuda Squad.
"Today is a very difficult journey. Jay's away match in the Milan Como area. The first time I met Jay was after seeing a away match. See you on March 17, 2024," Shin Tae-yong wrote in an upload on Instagram.

Regarding the date that Shin listed, it is known that that day will indeed be a plan for the initial launch of the Indonesian national team training camp before appearing in the 2026 World Cup Qualification.
The national team will play two matches on the agenda against Vietnam on March 21 and 26, 2024.
Jay Idzes' presence will clearly enliven the competition for central defenders. Previously, Indonesia had Jordi Amat, Elkan Baggott, Rizky Ridho, and Wahyu Prasetyo. In fact, Justin Hubner and Sandy Walsh can also act as doorstops at the heart of the Indonesian national team's defense.
Jay Idzes officially took the oath of Indonesian citizens (Indonesian citizens) on December 28, 2023 with the blood background of Indonesian descendants from his grandparents. After officially being naturalized, Jay has not appeared at all for the Garuda Squad. The 2026 World Cup Qualification agenda will be the first stage.
Apart from the good news about Jay's summons, Shin Tae-yong is known to be visiting Europe. He deliberately visited several countries to meet the Indonesian players who played there.
