Tristan Alif Naufal, an
11-year-old football talent, needs Rp 2.5 billion ( US$192,000 ) to join the
Getafe Football Academy in Madrid, Spain. The deadline to join the academy is
June 2016.
Currently, the Culture
and Education Ministry and Pertamina have put up Rp 500 million.
On kitabisa.com, a
crowd-funding website, Rp 19 million has been collected from 77 donors, or just
one percent of the total amount. The deadline is 54 days away.
The large sum of money
is needed due to a FIFA regulation that states that players of Alif’s age
cannot go abroad by themselves.
"The family needs
to move with him because he is underage. He needs shelter and our
support," Professor Rhenald Kasali, an advisor with kitabisa.com, said on
Sunday.
Trained at the
Liverpool FC Academy in Jakarta, at seven years of age in 2012, Alif was featured
in a Liverpool FC YouTube video.
His stardom continued
to expand after he participated in the 2014 Ajax Academy Summer Camp, where he
was deemed to be the most valuable player.
However, as his parents
did not have a living permit for the Netherlands, he could not continue into
Ajax Amsterdam’s U-12 squad. Then, at the beginning of 2016, he received the
opportunity to join the Getafe Football Academy.
"If we can help,
Indonesia’s name will rise again in Europe. We are currently crowd-funding
through kitabisa.com so he can go to Madrid as soon as possible," Rhenald
said. ( dan )
