Nathan Tjoe-A-Oen Takes Oath to Become Indonesian Citizen: Boost for National Team

The Indonesian national team’s initiative to naturalize players for bolstering their roster sees Nathan Tjoe-A-Oen stepping up to become a citizen of the country. Nathan’s addition is part of the 28-player squad gearing up to confront Vietnam in the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers in Asia, under the tutelage of coach Shin Tae-yong.

Scheduled for a clash at Jakarta’s Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium on Thursday, the Garuda Team plans to showcase their skills before heading to Hanoi for a face-off five days after the initial match. Shin Tae-yong’s regime has prompted a restructuring within the Indonesian national team, leading to several players being excluded – a trend catalyzed by the ongoing naturalization efforts. Bola.com highlights three such players who faced the cut.

As the team gears up for its upcoming challenge against Vietnam, the shuffle in the squad signals a transformation under Shin Tae-yong’s leadership. An air of anticipation surrounds the Garuda Team’s evolving dynamics, with a mix of established talent and newfound additions seeking to make an impact on the field.
