Borrowing Options

Loans from foreign players from Persija Jakarta are nothing new for Arema FC.

In the transfer market at the beginning of this season, Arema FC was the one who loaned foreign player Thales Lira to Persija Jakarta.

In silence, Thales Lira was immediately introduced at the launch of the Persija Jakarta team at the start of last season.

So that the swap loan option this time can run smoothly.

In response to being widely discussed about being borrowed, Ryo Matsumura responded on his Instagram account.

Ryo Matsumura touched on the agent who is covering him if he is interested in changing clubs in the transfer half of this season.

“Is there some kind of deal going on?” Ryo wrote while writing down the names of the agents who accompanied him, Sunday.

Ryo often uploads this response via his Instagram account.

Ryo himself is the only non-Brazilian player in the Persija Jakarta camp for foreign players.
