Managing Director of PSS Sleman Answers to the Polemic of Irfan Bachdim

Sleman –

Future Irfan Bachdim of PSS Sleman still a question mark. Laskar Sembada’s director, Marco Gracia Paulo, revealed the situation.

Until now, Irfan Bachdim has not joined to practice with other PSS Sleman players to welcome him Shopee Liga 1 2020. This situation has made speculation regarding Irfan’s condition in the Java Super Eagle squad continue to develop.

“This is a natural process. Indeed, professional players want legal certainty, we are chasing after (contract signatures) even though we have shaken (agreed),” Marco said in Sleman, Friday (11/9/2020).

Marco also confirmed that all contracts were clear and that he was just waiting for the arrival of the former Bali United. However, according to him, Irfan Bachdim’s not joining was also related to the COVID-19 situation.

The former CEO of Badak Lampung also appreciated the steps taken by Irfan Bachdim. However, currently the Laskar Sembada squad has continued to train. Marco also warned of the consequences if the 31-year-old striker continued to be absent.

“This is my analysis, maybe Irfan has a consideration and we appreciate it. But all clubs have trained and Irfan came late due to administrative problems. The consequence is that the coach did not see it during training,” he said.

The intended consequence is the opportunity to appear to defend the PSS banner. Because, according to Marco the coach has the right to field players who are considered ready.

“But Irfan is a professional player and I don’t care because everything is seen from the performance. This applies to all players,” he explained.

However, he believes next week Irfan Bachdim have joined. Because, the negotiations are clear.

“But I assure you that this week it will be done so that next week we will join. I believe Irfan will join next week,” said Marco again.
