Indonesia announces 26-player squad for AFF Cup 2026

Indonesian national football team coach John Herdman has finalized his 26-player squad for the upcoming AFF Cup 2026. The announcement, made via the official national team Instagram account on Friday, July 24, 2026, features a mix of seasoned players and emerging talents.

Among the notable inclusions are experienced figures such as goalkeepers Nadeo Argawinata, Cahya Supriadi, and Muhammad Riyandi. Defenders Jordi Amat and Rizky Ridho, midfielders Thom Haye and Egy Maulana Vikri, and forward Ragnar Oratmangoen also feature prominently. The squad also incorporates players currently playing abroad, including Justin Hubner from Fortuna Sittard, Marselino Ferdinan from Oxford United, and Mitchell Baker from Vermont Green.

Herdman has also given opportunities to several young players, such as Dony Tri Pamungkas, Rayhan Hannan, Ivar Jenner, and Jens Raven, signaling a blend of experience and future potential within the team. The squad aims to secure Indonesia's first-ever AFF Cup title, a goal that has eluded the nation despite reaching the final six times since the tournament's inception in 1996.

Indonesia has been drawn into Group A alongside Vietnam, Singapore, Cambodia, and Timor Leste. Their campaign begins on Monday, July 27, 2026, with a match against Cambodia at Stadion Pakansari in Bogor Regency. The team's preparation and squad selection reflect a strong determination to finally lift the coveted trophy.
