SKOR.id - Shin Tae-yong buka suara terkait polemik program naturalisasi di Timnas Indonesia.

Pasalnya, program naturalisasi pemain di Timnas Indonesia memang memunculkan banyak pro dan kontra akhir-akhir ini di berbagai kalangan.

Sejak PSSI terus menggencarkan program naturalisasi, prestasi Timnas Indonesia turut beranjak naik. Mulai dari menjadi finalis Piala Asia U-23 2024 hingga melaju ke Putaran Ketiga Babak Kualifikasi Piala Dunia 2026 Zona Asia.

Beberapa pencapaian itu tak terlepas dari peran para pemain naturalisasi.

Namun di sisi lain, program naturalisasi dianggap menyulitkan pemain-pemain lokal untuk bersaing di level Timnas Indonesia.

Menjawab kritikan tersebut, Shin Tae-yong meminta masyarakat untuk tidak berburuk sangka terhadap PSSI dan dirinya terkait program naturalisasi.

Juru taktik asal Korea Selatan itu justru melihat masyarakat Indonesia makin mencintai dan mendukung kiprah Timnas Indonesia dengan kehadiran pemain-pemain naturalisasi.

Hal ini disampaikan Shin Tae-yong saat menghadiri acara Santini JebreeetMedia Awards 2024 di JS Luwansa Hotel, Jakarta, pada Kamis (26/9/2024).

"Sekarang kita bisa lihat sendiri khususnya masyarakat dan fans sepak bola Indonesia pada senang. Mungkin dengan adanya pemain-pemain naturalisasi, Indonesia bisa menempatkan diri di posisi saat ini," kata Shin Tae-yong.

"Mungkin kalau lebih naik lagi, bisa menjadi siap untuk melawan siapa pun. Mungkin ada yang bilang (program naturalisasi) menyusahkan pemain-pemain lokal tetapi tolong jangan ada yang salah sangka," ucap Shin Tae-yong.

Lebih lanjut, Shin Tae-yong menuturkan program naturalisasi ini memiliki dampak positif jangka panjang untuk perkembangan dan kekuatan Timnas Indonesia di level internasional.

Melalui hasil dari program naturalisasi pemain, Timnas Indonesia juga punya kans untuk mentas di ajang Piala Dunia 2026.

"Mungkin kalau kita bisa naik sampai ke peringkat 50 dunia, sepak bola Indonesia tidak mudah kalah seperti sebelum-sebelumnya," ujar Shin Tae-yong.

"Tolong melihat yang besar, jangan yang kecil saja, apalagi kalo kita bisa lolos ke Piala Dunia dan sepak bola kita makin besar. Pasti semuanya akan mengapresiasi Bapak Erick Thohir (Ketum PSSI) dan juga (kita) bisa jadi sepak bola paling kuat di Asia," kata Shin Tae-yong.

Hingga saat ini, terdapat 13 pemain naturalisasi yang memperkuat Timnas Indonesia.

Mereka adalah Maarten Paes, Jordi Amat, Jay Idzes, Elkan Baggott, Sandy Walsh, Shayne Pattynama, Calvin Verdonk, Nathan Tjoe-A-On, Justin Hubner, Ivar Jenner, Thom Haye, Ragnar Oratmangoen, dan Rafael Struick.

Belum lagi akan ada dua pemain keturunan yang segera dinaturalisasi untuk membela timnas Indonesia yakni Mees Hilgers dan Eliano Reijnders.
