"Teerasil" Returns After Nearly 2 Years, Reveals 2 Conditions Before Helping Thailand National Team in June FIFA Day Matches. This marks his comeback after almost two years away from the national squad.
On 30 May 2026 at 13:00, at Novotel Future Park Rangsit Hotel, the Thailand men's national football team reported for duty to prepare for friendly matches scheduled in the FIFA Day calendar for June.
Teerasil Dangda, the Thailand national team striker making his return after nearly two years, said, “I’m happy and excited to work with Coach Hudson. We've crossed paths several times before, but this might be the first time I get to work directly with him.”
“I’m a year older now. Many already know me or have seen me play in the league. It’s a great opportunity to meet the younger players. I want to contribute to the Thailand national team by helping build a strong atmosphere and team as we prepare for the final round of the Asian Cup.”
“I believe everyone given a chance this time must prove their worth. There is competition, and several players are absent. The squad has grown deeper and competition is intense. The U23 team is also competing, and the younger players must integrate into the senior squad.”
“I want everyone to compete with themselves and improve. I believe the coach will have more options for upcoming tournaments. I will do my best, maintain my form, and if given the chance in these two games, I will give my utmost.”
“Having this opportunity after several years, I will do my best to fulfill my role, including taking care of the younger players to strengthen the Thailand national team’s depth. We must compete with ourselves and each other. I hope everyone becomes stronger, ready for the coach’s selections in future tournaments and matches. My focus is on these two games, and I will do my best.”
