New coach Stange names his first national team squad
New Singapore football coach Bernd Stange has named his first national team squad, which will play against Myanmar in Yangon on 4 June and Laos in Vientiane on 7 June.
17-year-old Adam Swandi, who was the captain of the National Football Academy's Under-16 team that played in the Lion City Cup last June, is the youngest of the 23 players called up.
Others called up for the first time include LionsXII midfielders Gabriel Quak and Faris Ramli, and Tanjong Pagar United's winger Hafiz Nor.
"The squad - which includes experienced internationals and promising youngsters - reflects a blend of experience and youth and we believe this will help us achieve a judicious balance between maintaining competitiveness and development of more national players for the future," said national team manager Azrulnizam Shah.
Mr Azrulnizam added: "There are several players who have been called up for the first time and we look forward to the experienced players including those from the AFF Suzuki Cup winning team guiding the younger ones. Going forward, players who perform consistently well for their club and who also demonstrate their commitment will always be considered for a call-up to the national team."
The team will depart for Yangon on 2 June.
