JAKARTA - Los Angeles FC (LAFC) player Adrian Wibowo was present to watch the Indonesian national team agenda at the FIFA Matchday which took place at Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium, Surabaya. In Friday night's match, September 5, Indonesia faced China Taipei.
After the match, Adrian said that he could not wait to be able to make his debut with the national team.
"I hope to debut for the national team soon," said Adrian when met by reporters at the mixed zone of the GBT Stadium as reported by Antara, Sunday, September 7.
In this match, Adrian was seen watching the Garuda team match with six players who were not included in the squad, such as Jay Idzes, Kevin Diks, Calvin Verdok, Ragnar Oratmangoen, Ricky Kambuaya, and Yance Sayuri.
On the same occasion, Adrian also agreed that he had Indonesian blood from Surabaya, as reported by the media. This is the first time the 19-year-old has set foot in the City of Heroes.
"I like it. This is the best thing I've ever felt. I enjoy every second (in Surabaya)," said Son Heung-min's teammate at LAFC.
Meanwhile, on a different occasion, PSSI General Chair Erick Thohir, who was also present at the match, revealed Adrian's chance to debut in the Indonesian national team match against Lebanon at the GBT Stadium, on Monday 8 September.
"(Administration) there is no problem. Just waiting for a letter from the US (United States). Don't know (can play or not). Still, the correspondence must be completed," said Erick Thohir.
Adrian is not like most Dutch-born players in the Indonesian national team who undergo the naturalization process. This is because Adrian has Indonesian blood directly from his father.
