"All of our players are good. They are champion players," said Bagus on the KRTV YouTube channel.
Nevertheless, Bagus still wishes to wear the Garuda uniform next time.
One of the reasons why Bagus is not picked for the U-23 squad is because Shin focuses on players who have a career in Indonesia.
Meanwhile, Bagus plays for the Netherlands, defending Jong Utrecht.
Bagus may have another chance, which is the 2021 Sea Games that will take place in Vietnam from May 12 to May 23. (mcr15/mcr20/jpnn)
