Persib Bandung Targets Three Star Players from Malaysian Super League for Next Season

BANDUNG – Persib Bandung is reportedly targeting three top players from the Malaysian Super League to strengthen their squad for the 2025/2026 season, according to Malaysian journalist Avineshwaran.

As Maung Bandung nears the second consecutive Liga 1 title, they have already started shaping their lineup for next season. Bojan Hodak, the Croatian coach, plays a crucial role in this strategy. With a successful record in the Malaysian League, Hodak is familiar with the region’s top talents and is eager to bring them to Persib.

Recruiting players from Malaysia has proven effective for Persib under Hodak’s leadership, with the coach’s keen eye for talent helping the team thrive. His deep understanding of Malaysia’s Super League gives Persib an advantage when scouting players who can adapt to the competitive environment of Liga 1.

With ambitions extending beyond the national league, Persib aims to strengthen their squad with experienced regional players who can boost their performance in both domestic and international competitions, such as the AFC Cup and AFC Champions League. This proactive approach signals Persib’s intent to remain a dominant force in Indonesian football while challenging on a broader stage in the future.
