JAKARTA - The presence of Pratama Arhan at his new club in Japan, Tokyo Verdy, not only received a warm welcome from players and club officials, but also from the supporters.

This is evident from the action taken by the Tokyo Verdy support group, Brigata Verde 1969. In which they deliberately made chants or chants that were specially prepared to welcome Arhan Primary's presence on the field later.

In fact, after officially signing a transfer contract on February 16, Arhan did not immediately go to Japan. He was still given time to finish the first match of PSIS Semarang, his club in Indonesia.

However, the enthusiasm of Tokyo Verdy's supporters in welcoming Arhan was very high. It can be seen from Brigata Verde 1969 who uploaded Arhan's special chants on their YouTube account.

The chant was made using the tune of the song Kokoro No Tomo, which was popularized by a Japanese singer, Mayumi Itsuwa. The Chanst was even given the title No. 38 Primary Arhan.

It is known, 38 is the jersey number that will be used by Arhan in the second caste club of the Japanese J2 League.

The special Chant for Arhan has four parts whose lyrics read as follows.

'Ai Wa Itsumo Rarabai'

'Arhan Primary Come on'

'Lalalalalala'

'Primary Arhan'

The chant for Arhan had even been sung in the stands when Brigata Verde was present at Tokyo Verdy's latest match.

The effect of Arhan's presence since he was officially recruited by Tokyo Verdy has been in the spotlight. The club, which is based in Ajinomoto Stadium, immediately became the club with the most number of followers in Japan in just two days since Arhan's recruitment was announced.

The number of followers of Tokyo Verdy surpassed the Japanese League's first caste club, Vissel Kobe, which previously held the record holder status. Now the number of Tokyo Verdy's Instagram followers has reached more than 310 thousand and continues to grow, where the number exceeds the achievement of Vissel Kobe which has 280 thousand followers.

Arhan himself was contracted for two years by Tokyo Verdy after being released for free from PSIS Semarang. Arhan will only join Tokyo Verdy and prepare for a trip to Japan after undergoing his last match with PSIS against Bali United in Liga 1 on 20 February.
