Eight players who have played for the national team are included in this call-up of U23 Indonesia, including Muhammad Ferarri, Cahya Supriadi, Kakang Rudianto, Kadek Arel Priyatna, Arkhan Fikri, Hokky Caraka, Dony Tri Pamungkas and Victor Dethan.
Among them, captain Muhammad Ferarri is the most experienced name. The 2003-born center-back is not only a pillar of the defense but also the only remaining player from the U22 Indonesia squad that won the 32nd SEA Games gold medal in Cambodia in 2023.
Another notable name is 19-year-old defender Kadek Arel, who played for the national team at the 2024 ASEAN Cup. At this tournament, he scored 1 goal in a 3-3 draw against Laos in the group stage.

In addition, U23 Indonesia also has a notable addition to the attack with Jens Raven. The 19-year-old striker is playing for Dordrecht in the Dutch Second Division. With Indonesian and Dutch blood, Raven is eligible to play for Indonesian youth teams. With experience playing in Europe, he is expected to bring a breakthrough to the home team's attack.
The coach leading the U23 Indonesia team in this tournament is coach Gerald Vanenburg. The former Dutch player is currently serving as technical assistant to coach Patrick Kluivert in the Indonesian national team.
Mr. Vanenburg is expected to help the young team of the archipelago nation play well, especially when they are the host of the 2025 Southeast Asian U23 tournament. At the same time, this strategist will also lead the team to participate in the 33rd SEA Games later this year.
Indonesia U23 will gather from June 20, aiming to win the tournament taking place from July 15 to July 29 in Jakarta and Bekasi. In the group stage, they are in Group A with Malaysia, Philippines and Brunei.
