“Football fans in Indonesia are known to be loyal, passionate and proud when their national team players have a career abroad. The decision of Asian players to play abroad is something that cannot be taken lightly,” wrote the Roker Report.
Therefore, Roker Report suggested the second tier club of the Women’s Premier League, Sunderland, to bring in players from Indonesia or Asia. The goal is clearly to improve the branding of the club.
