JAKARTA - Persija Jakarta midfielder Marc Klok insists that he appreciates the decision of Indonesian national team coach Shin Tae-Yong not to take him to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for the 2022 World Cup qualification Asia zone.
"I appreciate coach Shin Tae-Yong's decision. I have spoken to coach Shin", Klok said in an official statement reported from Antara on Thursday, May 13.
Not included in the Garuda squad, the best player of the 2021 Menpora Cup preseason tournament mentioned that he is currently accompanying his wife who is about to give birth to their first child.
Regarding the national team, Klok mentioned that he always wanted to defend the Garuda squad.
Naturalized players from the Netherlands also want to be an example for young Indonesian footballers.
"Next, I will always work hard, as I always do. I'm ready whenever I get a call for the next 'events'", Klok said.
The 28-year-old also expressed his full support to the Indonesian national team to achieve a satisfactory result in the 2022 World Cup qualification Asia zone.
Previously, coach Shin Tae-Yong did not include Marc Klok's name on the 28-man roster for the final three matches of Group G of the 2022 Asian Cup Qualifiers and two trial matches in the UAE.
The final three matches of Group G are against Thailand on 3 June, then Vietnam on 7 June, and the United Arab Emirates on June 11.
But previously, the Indonesian national team will face two test matches in the UAE, namely against Afghanistan on May 25 and Oman on May 29.
