Tottenham coming?
It's the silly season. Manchester United are confirmed for July in Jakarta, Liverpool are being rumoured to visit Bangkok, Hong Kong and Singapore. Now comes talk about Tottenham heading to Jakarta, possibly in June.
Nothing has been confirmed. However, back in December there was some seminar hosted here which featured some Singapore based expats and one of them was quoted in a local tabloid about being interested in bringing them over.
Now they're in town again for another seminar and the rumours surface again.
One reason given for why clubs now seem interested in coming to Indonesia after years of avoiding the place is given as the enthusiasm of the crowds here. Oh, and selling shirts of course.
Tottenham's sponsor has some kind of link with Indonesia as well but let's not go there...I don't know all the ins and outs of that
