News about Erick Thohir

In the midst of political uncertainty surrounding Israel's participation in the men's Under-20 World Cup, Indonesia was refused to host the men's Under-20 World Cup on Wednesday. According to FIFA, Indonesia was not able to stage the 24-team tournament, which is set to begin on May 20. The decision came after a meeting in Doha between FIFA president Gianni Infantino and Indonesian soccer federation President Erick Thohir. In June, Israel qualified for the first Under-20 World Cup in the United States. This month, the country's participation in a scheduled draw in Bali on Friday sparked political resistance.
