Chanathip Songkrasin is considered the most successful Southeast Asian player to play abroad in recent years.
Madam Pang wants to bring Chanathip back to Thai League
The Thai midfielder has spent 7 years playing for Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo Club in J-League 1.
He was even in the best team of the season in the highest league in the land of the rising sun.
But since moving to Kawasaki Frontale, Chanathip has not been able to maintain his place in the starting lineup.
Since the beginning of the 2023 season, the number one star of the Golden Temple country has only appeared twice in J-League 1 and 5 times in all competitions.
Faced with this reality, the head of the Thai football delegation, Nualphan Lamsam (Madam Pang), expressed great concern.
Chanathip is the heart of the Thai team's play and they will soon participate in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, a tournament in which the "War Elephants" have great ambitions.
Therefore, Madam Pang really wants to bring this star back to play for Port Authority FC, the team of which she is the President.
However, Kawasaki Frontale has no intention of letting Chanathip leave and wants him to continue being a "super reserve".
According to research, the player considered the "evil spirit" of the Vietnamese team still has a contract with the Japanese team until January 31, 2025.
However, Madam Pang still showed determination in rescuing Chanathip: "I can confirm that I am very interested in the opportunity to recruit him.
I talk to Chanathip twice a week and he himself is comfortable with the idea of returning to the Thai League.
However, when I contacted Kawasaki Frontale, they refused. They confirmed that they will still use Chanathip this season."
