Shin Tae-yong (53), the head coach of the Indonesian national team, has put an end to the rumor that he will be appointed as the next head coach of the Republic of Korea.
The Indonesian Football Association (PSSI) announced on its official website on the 28th (local time) that it will announce the renewal of his contract with Shin. The negotiations have reached an agreement, adding that he has devoted himself to developing Indonesian soccer. 고소득알바
In particular, PSSI President Eric Tohir, who took two steps to renew his contract with Shin, said, "Shin led the national team to the third qualifying round for the 2026 FIFA North-Central America World Cup and the 33rd Paris Olympics intercontinental playoff," adding, "It is an event that is enough to have a positive impact on Indonesian soccer."
Shin is one of the best coaches in Korea right now. Starting with the leadership of Seongnam FC (formerly Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma) in 2010, Shin showed off his potential as a young leader in succession, and took the helm of Korean national team by age group and A team in the mid-to-late 2010s.
The highlight was the 2018 Russia World Cup. Shin, who participated in the championship with his shot put off due to injury of key player, shocked the world by beating "defending champion" Germany 2-0. Although he failed to advance to the round of 16, it was a moment to put his name on the history books instead.
After two years of sabbatical, Shin took the helm in Indonesia in 2020. PSSI still remembered Shin's "Naneom profile" that sank Germany as an underdog.
One concern is that Indonesia is too marginalized. Many people are saying that Shin's leadership might be wasted on a narrow pool of Korean leaders.
Shin soon succeeded in proving his choice. Indonesia has grown into one of Asia's leading ambush teams, and recently defeated even Korea at the 2024 Asian Football Confederation U-23 Qatar Asian Cup.
There was also news that the Korea Football Association (KFA), which replaced former coach Jurgen Klinsmann in February, contacted the rising stock price every day. However, Shin accepted PSSI's offer to renew his contract without hesitation and continued to accompany him, and finally put an end to the pouring rumors of his appointment to Korea.
