Persiba Dumps De Jong!

This, definitely, was not the way to make a good impression.

Much excitement was generated when Azkal Jason de Jong was signed by Indonesian Super League team Persiba Balikpapan, the only Azkal player to do so.

Three months later, that excitement has turned to chagrin as the Azkal was released by his club.

Persiba management cited indiscipline and the failure to consistently attend training as the reason they have ended their contract with de Jong.

De Jong was signed by Persiba for half  the ISL season for the princely sum of IDR 500 million (USD58,000).

De Jong has not yet issued any statement yet nor has he aired his side of the story.
