Persib Bandung promotes U-17 national team midfielder to main squad

Persib Bandung has announced the promotion of Nazriel Alfaro Syahdan to the main squad — a strategic move ahead of the Super League 2025/2026 season.

The 17-year-old midfielder — a pure product of Persib Academy born in Bandung on February 1, 2008 — has proven his quality with Indonesia’s U-17 national team.

Alfaro’s achievements became more convincing after contributing to Indonesia U-17 national team’s qualification for the U-17 World Cup finals scheduled for this November.

This promotion decision aligns with Persib Bandung’s vision — focusing on team regeneration by prioritizing quality young talent from the club’s academy.
