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. However, Persija advanced to the semifinals of the 2024 President’s Cup and had to compete for third place against Persis Solo 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 ready to host them, but we had to adhere to the regulations set by our federation,” Prapanca continued. 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.
