Early career
Saddil comes from the remote Muna Island in Southeast Sulawesi province in eastern Indonesia. He was born in Raha, the main port of Muna, but left his hometown after elementary school to find a way to develop his football hobby. First, he went to provincial capital Kendari where he trained at the Galasiswa soccer school. Impressing scouts from Indonesia's main island of Java, Saddil in 2012 ended up in the East Java city of Malang, where the Aji Santoso International Football Academy (ASIFA) is based.
Under the guidance of former Indonesia national team captain Aji Santoso, at the time coaching the Indonesia U-23 team, Saddil trained and lodged at ASIFA, which enrolled him into a local secondary school that collaborated with the academy.[2][3]
Saddil developed into a goal-scoring winger at ASIFA, attracting calls from the national youth teams. In the 2016 AFF U-19 Youth Championship, Saddil on 20 September 2016 scored a hattrick against Cambodia that triggered a race among professional Indonesian clubs to be the first to employ his talents.[4]
Club career
Summarize
Perspective
Persela Lamongan
Before he graduated high school, Saddil signed for East Java club Persela Lamongan and played in the 2016 Indonesia Soccer Championship A. He scored his first goal for a professional club in October 2016 when Persela defeated Bali United 3–0. His 90th-minute goal sealed the upset victory. Persela frequently played the teenager in the 2017 Liga 1 and 2018 Liga 1 competitions. Schoolboy Saddil had to juggle between going to classes in Malang and playing for a professional club in Lamongan, three hours away, until he graduated in 2018.[5][6][7]
Sri Pahang
Saddil performance in various international youth competitions in Southeast Asia in 2016 until 2018 made him one of the most exciting talents in the region. In January 2019, Saddil took a leap and signed with Malaysia Super League club Sri Pahang. He made a solid display of 21 appearances and two goals for his first season overseas.[8]
Bhayangkara
After one year impressing in Malaysia, there was another race in Indonesia to recruit him. Saddil eventually signed for Bhayangkara, a high-paying club owned by the Indonesian Police, to play in the 2020 Liga 1 season. However, he could only play three matches without scoring a goal due to the suspension of the league amid the COVID-19 pandemic.[9]
Sabah
After his one-year contract with Bhayangkara ended, Saddil decided to play in Malaysia again. He accepted the offer from Sabah coach Kurniawan Dwi Yulianto, a legendary Indonesian striker, to play in the 2021 Malaysia Super League season. On 13 March, Saddil made his debut during a 0–1 league defeat against Petaling Jaya City.[10] Three-days later, Saddil scored his first goal for Sabah against his former club Sri Pahang but failed to make his new team avoid a 2–1 defeat.[11] On 17 April, he scored and assisted twice in a 4–0 win against UiTM.[12]
On 9 March 2022, Saddil scored his first goal of the season, converting a freekick in a 3–1 league win against Petaling Jaya City.[13] On 13 May, Saddil scored a winning goal in the 111th minute after extra-time against Kelantan United in the second-round of the 2022 Malaysia FA Cup, sending his club to the quarter-finals with a 2–1 win.[14] On 17 May, Saddil assisted two-goals in a 4–2 league victory against Penang.[15]
During the 2023–24 AFC Cup match against Indonesian club PSM Makassar on 5 October 2023, Saddil recorded a hat-trick of assist in a 5–0 away win. He also recorded a brace of assist in a 4–1 win against Vietnamese club Hải Phòng.
International career
He made his international debut for the Indonesia senior team on 21 March 2017, against Myanmar.[16]
On 17 August 2017, during a Southeast Asian Games match against Philippines U-23, Saddil scored in the 58th minute from long-range.[17]
On 14 June 2022, Saddil made his debut goal in the senior team against Nepal in a huge 7–0 win in the 2023 AFC Asian Cup qualification.[18]
On 21 November 2023, Saddil scored his second goal for the national team for an equalizer in a 1–1 draw against Philippines in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification.[19]
