Persebaya Surabaya goalkeeper, Ernando Ari Sutaryadi, received a final call to fly to Hanoi, Vietnam, in order to defend the Indonesian national team. In the midst of his condition that has not yet recovered, Persebaya left a message regarding the condition of the player.

Ernando Ari's sudden summons cannot be separated from the agenda of the Indonesian national team which had to play an away match against Vietnam on Tuesday, March 26, 2024.

The meeting was the fourth match of the second round of Group F of the 2026 Asian Zone World Cup Qualification.

Ernando was called to close together when all the players and officials were already in Hanoi. The goalkeeper was asked to close in to replace Nadeo Arga Winata who was not brought in due to fever.

Persebaya was surprised by Ernando's summons. Moreover, it is known that the goalkeeper has not fully recovered from the shoulder dislocation injury he experienced when facing Bhayangkara FC on February 4, 2024.

Ernando has not returned to play since the injury, but suddenly he received a call from the Indonesian national team.

"We received Ernando's summons from PSSI at 02.44 WIB, Saturday, March 23, 2024, morning at dawn."

"It's also quite surprising, especially since Ernando was asked to be in Jakarta at 10:00 WIB to go straight to Vietnam," said Persebaya Secretary Ram Surahman, in a statement quoted on Monday, March 25, 2024.

Responding to the summons, Persebaya actually still released Ernando. Bajul Ijo also left a message about Ernando's condition, which the club should have checked up on the player today (25/3/2024) to find out his condition further.

In the end, the club handed over the decision to play Ernando or not to PSSI. Ernando's last condition diagnosis from the Persebaya team of doctors has also been sent to PSSI.

"In principle, if the FIFA Matchday agenda we will send players. However, it should be noted together, Ernando's condition is still in the recovery stage," said Ram.

"Ernando should have taken him to the hospital Monday (25/3/2024) to undergo a complete examination, to determine his status whether he was ready to play. Apparently, Sunday (24/3/2024) had to fly to Vietnam."

"We hope that PSSI and the Indonesian national team can be wise in determining whether Ernando plays or not related to the condition of his shoulders," said Ram Surahman.
