Suree Sukha becomes first Thai to play in EPL, surely will earn more than RM5,000 per month now
Malaysia has been upstaged yet again. We missed being the first Asian, and now the first South East Asian country to have one of our players in the English Premier League.
Or perhaps we don’t have any soccer-mad Malaysian billionaires, unlike Thaksin Shinawatra who paid more than half a billion ringgit for Manchester City?
Suree Sukha, 25, an attacking fullback might not be the only one. Sven-Goran Eriksson is said to be interested in 2 other Thai players, Kiatprawut Saiwaeo and Teerasil Dangda.
Suree currently earns about USD300 a week (that’s less than RM5,000 per month) in the Thai league.
Once the signing is done, he would immediately be sent out on loan.
