JAKARTA - The name Daniel Klein appeared amid the uncertainty of the fate of Maarten Paes. The FC Augsburg goalkeeper is predicted to be an option for naturalization for the Indonesian national team.
Klein, who has Indonesian-German blood, does not seem to have administrative problems if it is naturalized by lightning.
This means that after becoming an Indonesian citizen (WNI), the transfer of federations from Germany (DFB) to Indonesia (PSSI) will be smooth, unlike Maarten Paes.
Although Daniel Klein once defended various levels of the age group under the German flag (U-15, U-16, U-17, U-18, and U-19), he appeared when he was under 21 years old.
This is of course in accordance with FIFA Statua regarding the Feasibility of Playing for Team Representatives, to be precise Article 9, which regulates the transfer of federations.

If the administrative problems for the transfer of the Maarten Paes federation have not been completed before the agenda, the FC Dallas goalkeeper with Indonesian-Dutch blood will again cancel defending the Garuda Squad.
Meanwhile, if you shift your focus to naturalization of Daniel Klein, there is a high possibility that the 23-year-old goalkeeper can defend the Indonesian national team sooner. However, all of that came back to the player.
