Skuad Timnas Indonesia untuk FIFA Matchday September 2025 melawan Kuwait dan Lebanon

Indonesian National Team has finally released the official list of 27 players for the FIFA Matchday in September 2025. Two opponents are waiting: Kuwait (September 5th) and Lebanon (September 8th), both will take place at Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium, Surabaya.

This Indonesian National Team squad feels special because it consists of a mix of old faces, naturalized players from Europe, and local talents who are currently shining. Under the crossbar, there are three goalkeepers ready to compete: Emil Audero from Cremonese, Ernando Ari (Persebaya), and Nadeo Argawinata (Borneo FC).

The Indonesian National Team‘s backline is getting stronger with the presence of European defenders such as Jay Idzes, Mees Hilgers, Kevin Diks, Calvin Verdonk, and Justin Hubner. They will work hand in hand with local pillars like Rizky Ridho and the Sayuri twins, plus the presence of Sandy Walsh and Shayne Pattynama who are now playing in Thailand.

In the midfield, Marselino Ferdinan remains the main highlight. He is accompanied by hard-working midfielders like Ricky Kambuaya, Marc Klok, Thom Haye, and Eliano Reijnders. Young names like Beckham Putra and Nathan Tjoe-A-On add a fresh color for Indonesian National Team rotation options.

Meanwhile, the front sector is led by the increasingly mature Ramadhan Sananta. He will be supported by the agility of Ragnar Oratmangoen and the creativity of Egy Maulana Vikri. The presence of Stefano Lilipaly also adds much-needed experience for the Indonesian National Team in international matches.

This squad truly reflects the spirit of “Garuda Calling”: a combination of experience, young energy, and fresh naturalized blood that strengthens the team’s foundation. For coach Patrick Kluivert, these two FIFA Matchday matches are not just trials, but a golden opportunity to find the best composition before the Indonesian National Team steps into the fourth round of the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.
