Suddenly, Sandy’s upload was widely commented on by Indonesian netizens who hoped that the naturalization process for the player could be completed soon so that he could immediately defend the Indonesian national team. However, in the midst of this, netizens’ attention was also drawn to the comments written by Kevin Diks.
“It’s finished, bro,” wrote Kevin Diks as if to support Sandy Walsh’s naturalization process.
The comments of Kevin Diks were immediately crowded with comments by netizens. Many still hope that Kevin Diks can follow Sandy Walsh, taking steps to become an Indonesian citizen to defend the Indonesian national team.
The name Kevin Diks itself is actually included in the list of descendants of players that Shin Tae-yong wants to defend the Indonesian national team. However, the player who is currently playing for Copenhagen in the Netherlands cannot continue his naturalization process because he does not get permission from his parents. In fact, Kevin Diks himself is reported to have agreed to defend the Garuda Squad.
“Come on, bro, join the national team,” wrote @jrabdlgan to Kevin Diks’ comments.
“Come on Kevin, let’s go to the FIFA World Cup 2026 Asia Zone, invite Ragnar Oratmangun (FW), Jordy Wherman, Tijjany reijners (CM), Jairo Riedeweld, Mees Hilgers (DF), Emil Audero (GK), to make our national team strong,” wrote other netizens.
