Johan Cruyff's son lands in… Indonesia! (Official)

As a rising nation in global football, Indonesia welcomes a new notable figure in the sport. Jordi Cruyff, the son of the legendary Johan Cruyff, was officially introduced this Tuesday, March 11, by the Indonesian Football Federation. His arrival marks a strategic and technical strengthening effort.

The former FC Barcelona player joins the organization as a technical advisor. This pivotal role will allow him to contribute to the development of Indonesian football, particularly by working on the integration of dual-nationality players and the structuring of national teams.

Excited about the new challenge outside Europe, Cruyff expressed his commitment to bringing his expertise and vision.

His mission is part of a broader initiative led by the Federation, which also appointed Patrick Kluivert as national coach last January.

The first fruits of this cooperation between the Dutch and Indonesian schools are already evident, with the arrival of several young talents who have played for the Netherlands in youth selections.

As Indonesia prepares for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, this alliance between Jordi Cruyff and Patrick Kluivert could well mark a turning point for the country's football.
