Indonesian player, Elkan Baggott as captain for the Ipswich Town U-23 team.
BOLANAS.COM – Kieran McKenna is aware of Elkan Baggott’s achievements in the Indonesian national team and has involved him on the Ipswich Town agenda.
Ipswich Town coach, Kieran McKenna, apparently knows the progress of the English-Indonesian half-breed defender Elkan Baggott.
Kieran McKenna is a youth coach who has been in charge of Ipswich Town since December 2021, with his last job as assistant to Ralf Rangnick at Manchester United.
At Ipswich Town, Kieran McKenna had the opportunity to witness the development of Elkan Baggott, who is now captain of the U-23 team.

Elkan Baggott himself is perhaps the most popular Ipswich Town player on social media.
The 1.94 cm tall defender has tasted six caps with the Indonesian national team, five of them in the 2020 AFF Cup.
Elkan’s achievement with the Indonesian national team actually reached the ears of Kieran McKenna.
“We have some good players in the under-23s and under-18s behind the first team,” McKenna said at Twtd.co.uk (11/3/2022).

“Especially Elkan, who has played in international football, he played for the first team in the EFL Trophy,” he continued.
McKenna referred to Elkan’s only appearance for the Ipswich Town first team, which was in the match against Gillingham (6/10/2020).
Elkan then had time to penetrate the Ipswich Town bench in League One (the third tier of the English League) in the hands of Paul Lambert.
He was later returned to the junior team and has now been a top choice at Ipswich Town U-23 coaching Kieron Dyer.

It was at this stage that Elkan got the status of an Indonesian citizen and was called by Shin Tae-yong in the Garuda squad for the 2020 AFF Cup.
Elkan’s meteoric rise in Southeast Asia’s biggest tournament made him called up to train with the Ipswich Town first team.
McKenna revealed that Elkan had trained and played in a number of closed-door games for the Blues in the last six weeks.
“Elkan has played with us (first team) for about six weeks, he’s been an important part of our training, he’s a player we really like,” he explained.
