The presence of the Sporting Kansas City FC player dominated the headlines after he arrived to train with the team in preparations for the 30th Southeast Asian (SEA) Games that will start with the match against Myanmar on November 25. But when the final list of players was released on Friday evening, Wan Kuzain's name was not in the squad.
Inability to complete his documentations in time for the flight out to Philippines meant that Ong Kim Swee had to forgo his hopes of having the talented midfielder at his disposal. This after the 21-year-old had impressed the head coach suitably in the few days of training with the team.
