Shin Tae-yong must have a spare replacement for Ivar Jenner if he is not allowed to defend the Indonesian U-23 National Team in the 2024 U-23 Asian Cup. There are four players who are considered suitable to take the 20 year old player's position.
The 2024 U-23 Asian Cup is scheduled to take place in Qatar from April 15 to May 3 2024. In this tournament, which is not included in the FIFA calendar, the Indonesian national team is in Group A with Qatar, Australia and Jordan.
Seeing that the opponents faced by the Indonesian National Team are considered tough, Shin Tae-yong must prepare players who are deemed worthy to fill the Garuda Nusantara Squad in the 2024 U-23 Asian Cup. Of course this is not an easy thing, especially since there is the possibility that the coach will be from South Korea. cannot call up several naturalized players as was done in the 2023 Asian Cup.
One of them is Ivar Jenner. There is a possibility that the Indonesian national team will not be strengthened by this midfield general if Utrecht does not give permission to appear in the 2024 U-23 Asian Cup. So who can replace Ivar Jenner in the 2024 U-23 Asian Cup?
Here are 4 players who might be able to replace Ivan Jenner:
1. Muhammad Taufany Muslihuddin
Shin Tae-yong can call Muhammad Taufany Muslihuddin. This Borneo FC player might be an alternative if Ivar Jenner cannot strengthen the Indonesian national team in the 2024 U-23 Asian Cup.
Shin Tae-yong can monitor Taufany's game with Borneo. Moreover, this season's League 1 has started again after a two-month holiday. So far the 21 year old player has played six matches with Borneo.
2. Muhammad Fajar Fathur Rahman
The second player who can replace Ivar Jenner's role is Muhammad Fajar Fathur Rahman. The player who can play as a right back and winger could be an alternative for Shin Tae-yong.
Moreover, Fajar Fathur has experienced several matches with the U-23 Indonesian National Team. In total, he has defended the Garuda Nusantara Squad eight times, scoring five goals.
Apart from that, Shin Tae-yong can also see Fajar Fathur's statistics when playing with Borneo FC in Liga 1 2023/2024. The player with back number 56 is one of the irreplaceable players in the Pesut Etam squad. In the 23 matches he has played, he has contributed two assists.
3. Beckham Putra Nugraha
The third player who can replace Ivar Jenner in midfield is Beckham Putra. The Persib Bandung player could be used as an option if Jenner really cancels playing for the U-23 Indonesian National Team.
Beckham Putra's report card with Persib is also not too bad. In League 1 this season, the 21 year old player has played 19 times, scoring one goal and three assists.
4. Dony Tri Pamungkas
The final player who is likely to replace Ivar Jenner is Dony Tri Pamungkas. The versatile player (left back and winger) is currently defending the Indonesian U-20 national team.
In the trial match against Thailand U-20, Dony managed to contribute one assist when Toni Firmansyah broke into the opponent's goal. His ingenuity in penetrating from the left wing and making mature crosses could become a weapon for the Garuda Nusantara Squad in the future.
