Baggott in Indonesia Squad Ahead of Messi Meeting - Ipswich Town News

Blues central defender Elkan Baggott has been named in a 26-man Indonesia squad for a training camp in Surabaya from Monday 5th June.

The camp is preparation for friendlies against Palestine in Surabaya on Wednesday 14th June and World Cup holders Argentina, a game in which Baggott could face Lionel Messi, five days later in Jakarta.

Baggott has previously won 14 senior caps and has netted two international goals.
