Aldair Simanca
Loaned by Borneo FC, Aldair Simanca officially wore the PSIS Semarang uniform on Monday 22 December 2025.
Even though he hasn’t been able to help the club, Aldair Simanca is a center back who requires experience.
He was just brought in by Borneo FC in the 2025/2026 season but has only played 1 match.
So Aldair Simanca’s opportunity to get playing minutes at PSIS Semarang will be open considering that only 3 foreign players are allowed.
Rafinha
On the front line, PSIS Semarang is still strongly rumored to be with Rafinha.
Rafinha is currently defending PSIM Yogyakarta in the Super League.
Rafinha was linked with PSIS Semarang following the minimal playing minutes he recorded for PSIM Yogyakarta in the 2025/2026 Super League.
The Brazilian striker has often warmed the bench for PSIM Yogyakarta this season.
In fact, previously Rafinha was PSIM Yogyakarta’s mainstay when Laskar Mataram competed in League 2 2024/2025.
