The president of the Football Association of Thailand admitted that he was quite worried about the 2024 Thai League schedule, which will clash with the ASEAN Football Championship. 'Madam Pang' Nualphan Lamsam, President of the Football Association of Thailand, revealed after attending the press conference where Thairath TV acquired the rights to 4 Thai football tournaments, about the Thai League football schedule that will overlap with the ASEAN Football Championship, which has changed the schedule from the original date of 23 November - 21 December to 8 December 2024 - 5 January 2025. Even though it has been moved, there are still force majeure events with clubs that have Asian club football competitions, causing 7 Thai League matches to be affected during the ASEAN Football Championship. Madam Pang said that she was quite worried, but she had already made plans. Next week, she will talk with clubs in Thai League 1 about requesting athletes to join the national team. She understands that every club wants their team to perform well, but the national team cannot be neglected. She believes that every club will understand and hope to defend the championship. Masatada Ishii, head coach of the Thai national team, said that during the FIFA days, both the King's Cup in October and November, the team will be prepared for the ASEAN Championship. He understands that he cannot select the main players. Therefore, the players called up during the FIFA days will be the ones who will play in the ASEAN Championship. At the moment, some players have been named, while the main players such as "Umm" Theerathon Bunmathan, "Jay" Chanathip Songkrasin, "Mui" Teerasil Dangda and "Tang" Sarach Yooyen need to be seen again to see if they will be able to play in the ASEAN Championship Source: Thai News Agency
