JAKARTA - Since officially joining Tokyo Verdy, Pratama Arhan has immediately hit the Asian football market. The player from PSIS Semarang was immediately included in the list of the top ten most expensive players in the club.

Referring to the Transfermarkt page, Arhan has a market value of around 325,000 euros. If converted to rupiah, the amount reaches Rp. 5.2 billion.

Arhan's entry in the top ten Tokyo Verdy's most expensive players cannot be separated from the pre-existing details. The first rank on this list is still occupied by a young player, Rihito Yamamoto.

The Tokyo Verdy key player has a market value of 700 thousand euros, equivalent to Rp. 11 billion. Occupying the position of midfielder, Yamamoto's presence is also often the coach's first choice in compiling the starting XI.

Arhan's selling value is predicted to continue to skyrocket. The condition is that he is able to show maximum performance in the team.

Besides being included in the list of Tokyo Verdy's most expensive players, Arhan is also the sixth Southeast Asian player currently working in the J2 League, or the second tier of the Japanese League.

Before Arhan joined, there were already two players from Vietnam, two players from the Philippines, and one player from Thailand who had previously joined a J2 League club.

The two Vietnamese players in question are Vu Hong Quan and Pham van Luan, while the two Filipino players are Paul Tabinas and Jefferson Tabinas. The Thai player is Sitticok Paso.

With Tokyo Verdy, Arhan got a contract duration of two years or until 2023. It is hoped that this 20-year-old player can contribute greatly to the club based at the Ajinomoto Stadium.
