Revealing the huge amount of money Indonesia had to pay to invite Messi to play a friendly match

In recent days, Southeast Asian media has been spreading information that Indonesia will play a friendly match with the Argentine team next June.

Will the Argentina team come to Indonesia for a friendly match next June?

Previously, TyC Sports (Argentina) confirmed that "Albiceleste" will face Australia in China on June 15 and then compete with Indonesia on June 18 or 19.

According to research, to ensure the presence of top stars like Messi or Di Maria, PSSI had to spend up to 5 million euros (about 117 billion VND).

However, the heads of Indonesian football still affirm that this number is reasonable.

“Let's all pray. There is no official date yet, but I believe Argentina will come here.

They have the world's number one player Lionel Messi and many other world-class stars. If that's the price to bring Argentina here to play, I don't think it's a problem.

I believe the match will have a positive impact on society as well as our players.

In addition, Indonesian football will benefit as we gain experience and direct interaction with world-class players, something we would never get under normal conditions.

So I think this match cannot be judged by money, everything is relative,” said PSSI Executive Committee member Vivin Cahyani.

According to this official, PSSI will spend all the money to invite Argentina to play a friendly match and does not need support from domestic businesses or individuals.
