According to Indonesian media, the President of the Indonesian Football Federation - Mr. Erick Thohir confirmed that defender Nathan Tjoe-A-On will be able to participate in the 2024 AFC U23 Championship after the Dutch team Heerenveen agreed to release him.

Nathan Tjoe-A-On just came off the bench in Heerenveen's win over Heracles in the Dutch National Championship last night but immediately arrived in Qatar today to join the U23 Indonesia squad. It is not impossible that the player born in 2001 will be registered for the match against host Qatar tonight.

Despite receiving good news from Nathan Tjoe-A-On, U23 Indonesia received negative news from Justin Hubner, a player playing for Cerezo Osaka in Japan. Justin Hubner will only be in Qatar on the evening of April 17 and will definitely miss the match between U23 Indonesia and U23 Qatar tonight.

At the 2024 AFC U23 Championship, U23 Indonesia brought to the tournament a squad consisting of many players who were in the Indonesian national team that defeated Vietnam in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Therefore, the goal of this team is to compete for a ticket to the 2024 Paris Olympics.
