What happened? "Star Thai League player" posts a photo of instant noodles amid nearly 3 months of unpaid salary.
On 28 May 2026 GMT+7, Kornwit Thasa, Thailand national team forward, posted on his personal Instagram story after Muangthong United was relegated from Thai League 1 in the 2025-26 season, finishing 14th, just 2 points below the safety zone.
However, the problems for Muangthong United, known as the "Kilen Phayong," go beyond dropping from the top league to Thai League 2 next season; they may also include financial issues within the club.
Recently, "Sun" Kornwit Thasa, one of Muangthong United's star players, posted a story featuring a photo of instant noodles with the caption: "It's almost June, but when do you think I'll get paid for March?"
Thai football fans continue to watch closely to see if Muangthong United, Kornwit Thasa's club, will provide any explanation or respond in the near future.
