ASEAN All-Stars Announce 26-Player Squad for Manchester United Clash

Coach Kim Sang-sik has officially named the 26-man ASEAN All-Stars squad that will take on Manchester United at the iconic Bukit Jalil Stadium, Kuala Lumpur. The high-profile friendly match is set to kick off tomorrow.

Two Indonesian Players Included in Final Selection

From the finalized squad, Indonesia is represented by two players:

• Kakang Rudianto from Persib Bandung

• Malik Risaldi from Persebaya Surabaya

This marks a significant opportunity for both players to showcase their skills against one of the most famous football clubs in the world.

Last-Minute Changes to Indonesia’s Representatives

Initially, Muhammad Ferarri and Asnawi Mangkualam were selected to represent Indonesia. However, Ferarri was pulled from the squad due to his commitments with Persija Jakarta, who require his presence for the ongoing Liga 1 season.

“This change had to be made to prioritize club needs, but we’re confident in the quality of the replacement players,” stated an internal ASEAN All-Stars coordinator.
