There was a possibility that head coach Shin Tae-yong could return to Indonesia, but fans dissuaded it.

Indonesia's Sepos Online reported on the 5th (Korea time) that "there were various reactions to the news that Shin Tae-yong could be recruited as Percya Jakarta coach."

Coach Shin Tae-yong left the Indonesian national team in January with a sudden replacement. It was a disappointing decision considering his performance. Shin started his career in Indonesia when he took the helm of the Indonesian team in 2020. He was highly regarded as a coach who would lead the overall growth of the Indonesian team by taking charge of the national team by age.

From the beginning, Shin's Indonesian team has shown a different side. He won the runner-up prize at the 2020 Southeast Asian Football Confederation (AFF) Suzuki Cup, and placed fourth at the 2022 AFF Mitsubishi Cup. The Indonesian team has a number of naturalized players in its squad to further strengthen its capabilities. Several European players, including those born in the Netherlands and Belgium, have joined the Indonesian team since Shin Tae-yong's inauguration.

At the Asian Cup, he also drew more attention by achieving the best performance among Southeast Asian countries, and immediately signed a contract. In the third Asian qualifying round, he showed the joy of renewing his contract. He beat Saudi Arabia to rise to third place with one win, three draws and two losses in the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 North-China World Cup, boosting his chances of advancing to the finals.

However, the mood has changed since the team was eliminated from the Mitsubishi Cup. Initially, Indonesia was inferior to other teams in terms of players' capacity because they played in the national team by age group. There was no choice but to be different from other teams that competed in the preliminary games. However, Chairman Eric Tohir shook Shin and decided to dismiss him. Since then, Patric Clawibbert has newly appointed as the head coach and is now leading the Indonesian team.

In this situation, the possibility of Shin's return to Indonesia was recently discussed. It was argued that he could be appointed to the Indonesian league club, not the national team. Persevaya Surabiya and Percija Jakarta were mentioned as the teams that Shin Tae-yong could take over.

However, Indonesian fans dissuaded Shin Tae-yong from taking the helm. Notably, Indonesian fans dissuaded him from taking the helm of Percija Jakarta because of the club's overdue wages.

Sepos Online said, "Fans will welcome the possibility of Shin Tae-yong's appointment. If he takes the helm, he is expected to improve. However, fans took into account the unresolved internal issues in Pergiza. Some fans commented, "How can we pay Shin Tae-yong when the players' wages have been pushed back?" Another fan also dissuaded him, saying, "Don't go. You won't get paid."

In March, Percija Jakarta came under a lot of criticism for its players' unpaid salaries. Some players even issued statements saying they had not been paid. Erik Tohir, president of the Indonesian Football Association, said he could not intervene recklessly because it was a matter between the league and the club. 스포츠토토
