It has been revealed that Persija Jakarta’s planned friendly match against Atletico Madrid was canceled due to their involvement in the 2024 President’s Cup. Rumors had circulated that Persija was scheduled to play Atletico Madrid on Saturday (August 3) at Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) in preparation for the new season. Persija qualified for the semifinal stage of the 2024 President’s Cup and was set to play against Persis Solo for third place on the same day at Stadion Manahan, Solo. “It was definitely not possible because we were involved in the third-place match of the 2024 President’s Cup,” Persija’s Director Mohamad Prapanca told reporters. He explained that Atletico Madrid could only come on that specific date, which conflicted with Persija’s schedule. “We were prepared to host them, but we had to follow the regulations of our federation,” Prapanca said. Prapanca is uncertain whether Atletico Madrid will still come to Indonesia following the cancellation of the friendly. He mentioned that Persija initially planned to test their strength against the Spanish giants. “I don’t know. You should ask the promoter whether Atletico Madrid will come or not. As for the planning, yes, the plan was there,” Prapanca said. “However, the promoter also needed to get recommendations from our federation and PT LIB to see if it could be arranged during the 2024 President’s Cup,” he concluded.
In terms of regulations for youth players, BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 will implement new rules. Each club is required to field at least one player under 22 years old (U-22) for a minimum of 45 minutes per game. Clubs are exempt from this requirement if two or more of their players are called up to the Indonesian National Team. In contrast, the 2023/2024 season had a requirement to play U-23 players, but this regulation was abolished towards the end of the season.

Nevertheless, other experienced players such as Andritany Ardhiyasa and Riko Simanjuntak are still around to lead the team. Persija Jakarta has promoted young talents to the senior squad. After the generation of Dony Tri Pamungkas, the new 16-year-old player Zahabi Gholy has been introduced. Zahabi made his debut in the Piala Presiden 2024. Despite few changes in the player roster, Persija Jakarta has undergone a notable coaching change. Thomas Doll has been replaced by Carlos Pena from Spain. Pena is anticipated to strengthen the team and achieve better results than in the Piala Presiden 2024. Additionally, there has been a change in team captaincy. For the 2024/2025 season, the captaincy has been taken over by Rizky Ridho from Andritany Ardhiyasa.
The most significant change in BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 is the competition system. Unlike the 2023/2024 season, there will be no more Regular Series or Championship Series. These stages have been eliminated, meaning there will no longer be semifinals or finals. The champion of BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 will be the team that finishes at the top of the standings at the end of the season. “The club that occupies the 1st position in the final BRI Liga 1 2024/25 standings will be declared the champion of BRI Liga 1,” states Article 9, Section 6 of the BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 regulations.
