Persis Solo on the verge of parting ways with Ong Kim Swee

The future of Ong Kim Swee with Persis Solo remains uncertain — speculation about his departure from the club intensifies after the end of the 2024-2025 Liga 1 season.

The Malaysian coach managed to keep Persis Solo in Liga 1 — the team nicknamed Laskar Sambernyawa finished 14th with 36 points after being trapped in the relegation zone several times.

Rumors of Ong Kim Swee’s move to Persik grow stronger after the club dismissed Divaldo Alves. Persis Solo’s Media Officer, Bryan Barcelona, confirms that management is in the final stage of discussions.

“The coach has reached the finalization stage with the owner, as managerial role negotiations are executed directly by the owner to get an explanation about the team’s long-term vision,” said Bryan Barcelona.
