Bola.net – Witan Sulaeman seems to be working in silence to get his best level with Persija Jakarta. His performance has improved significantly and now leads the BRI League 1 2023/2024 top assist list.
Witan Sulaeman’s performance has declined since appearing in the 2022 AFF Cup. He failed to close the 2022/2023 season with good performance. Then, at the start of the 2023/2024 season, the 21-year-old player’s appearance was also not consistent.
There are great expectations for Witan Sulaeman. Because, he appeared quite prominent with the Indonesian national team at the age level. He has also tasted the tough competition in Europe for several years.
However, Witan Sulaeman secretly answered all these criticisms. Not getting much attention because they haven’t scored a goal, Witan Sulaeman has been doing very well lately. Check out the full review below Bolaneters.

Top Assist
The crisis experienced by Persija Jakarta brought blessings to Witan Sulaeman. When Thomas Doll lost two centre-backs simultaneously, Hansamu Yama and Muhammad Ferarri, Firza Andika had to be shifted to become an impromptu centre-back.
So, Firza’s role as a wingback must be replaced by Witan Sulaeman.
It doesn’t look ideal, but Witan Sulaeman actually performed brilliantly in his new role. The former US Trencin player is very tenacious as a wingback. Witan Sulaeman has always made assists in the last two matches.
Now, Witan Sulaeman is recorded as having made four assists in six BRI League 1 2023/2024 matches. Witan led the list of top assists until week 6 of the BRI League 1, ahead of Stefano Lilipaly, Alexis Messidoro, Majed Osman and Mati Mier who made three assists.

In Week 6 of the BRI Liga 1 duel against PSS Sleman, Friday (4/8/2023), coach Thomas Doll pulled out Witan Sulaeman in the 58th minute. It was feared that this decision would be made because of Witan’s condition who was injured or out of shape.
However, Thomas Doll denied it. “It’s a normal change. Witan has worked very well and we need energy for the next match. Witan is not injured,” said the coach from Germany.

Witan Sulaeman looked good as an impromptu wingback. So, will Witan Sulaeman continue to be a wingback or will he return to playing as a winger?
What is certain, Thomas Doll ensures that Hansamu Yama will recover and be able to play in the near future. When Hansamu recovers, there is a possibility that he will return to the starting XI and make Firza Andika return to the wingback role.
So, will Doll continue to play Witan Sulaeman as a wingback and sacrifice Hansamu or Firza? Or will Doll return Witan as a winger? We’ll just wait Bolaneters.
