The continuation of naturalization is part of PSSI's efforts so that Verdonk and Raven can immediately defend the Indonesian national team.
As is known, the Garuda Squad will serve Iraq (June 6, 2024) and the Philippines (June 11, 2024) in the remaining two matches of the second round of the 2026 World Cup Qualification at the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium.
If these two player files are ratified, the steps taken by the players to hold the status of Indonesian citizens (WNI) are in sight. They are just waiting for the Presidential Decree (Keppres), taking the oath, and transferring the federation.
Especially for Verdonk, although the naturalization has not been fully completed, the 27-year-old has actually attended a training session with the Indonesian national team.
The player of the Eredivisie club, NEC Nijmegen, was also present to watch the Indonesian national team match conduct a test against Tanzania on Sunday, June 2, 2024.
