Match19 Aug 2026

The cup run ends for PSM

0‑0 against Dewa United, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Hilman Syah keeps PSM in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Market24 Aug 2026

Akbar Tanjung hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what PSM can pretend not to have heard.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Up for the corner, and Sávio delivers — 7.98

Centre-halves are allowed forward twice a season and are judged on what they do when they get there. Sávio scored, was marked 7.98, and got back before anybody noticed he had gone.

Market24 Aug 2026

PSM say no — this time

The offer from Madura United for Sávio was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Boardroom24 Aug 2026

PSM go back to the board over Rangga Muslim

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $11.4K — a club that wants Rangga Muslim enough to be asked twice.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

PSM make their move for Ilhamsyah

$31.0K on the table at Madura United. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Tempers go at PSM

Hilman Syah was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

PSM baulk at the price for Asyraq Gufron

Semen Padang wanted more than $32.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

PSM go back to the board over Dony Tri Pamungkas

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $34.1K — a club that wants Dony Tri Pamungkas enough to be asked twice.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

PSM make their move for Dony Tri Pamungkas

$30.0K on the table at Persija. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

PSM bid $10.0K for Rangga Muslim

The offer went to Dewa United this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Hilman Syah in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at PSM this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

PSM baulk at the price for Ricky Fajrin

Bali United wanted more than $26.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Squad17 Aug 2026

A row about effort at PSM

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Luka Čumić was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Dewa United tell PSM: Rangga Muslim is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market17 Aug 2026

Rasyid Bakri attracts admirers

The name of Rasyid Bakri has come up in conversations PSM were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Match15 Aug 2026

Borneo take the points off PSM

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Both of them Luka Čumić's — 7.95

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 7.95, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Boardroom10 Aug 2026

PSM go back to the board over Asyraq Gufron

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $34.1K — a club that wants Asyraq Gufron enough to be asked twice.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Sheriddin Boboev scored one and made one — 7.90

Two of the goals had his name somewhere on them, which is the afternoon a manager wants from anybody asked to both create and finish. 7.90, and 2 involvements.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

PSM bid $32.0K for Asyraq Gufron

The offer went to Semen Padang this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

PSM bid $32.0K for Jasey Wehrmann

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at PSM

Hilman Syah and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match8 Aug 2026

PSM find a way past Bhayangkara Presisi

Bhayangkara Presisi made PSM work for it, but the scoreboard read 3‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

PSM rebuffed over Néiser Villarreal

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Cruzeiro have kept their man, and PSM go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Market10 Aug 2026

PSM promote Agung Hidayat from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Agung Hidayat has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

A career in one shirt: Rasyid Bakri

12 seasons and 167 appearances, all of them here. Careers like this are not designed; they happen to a certain kind of man at a certain kind of club, and this town has one.

Daisuke Sakai signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Daisuke Sakai commits to PSM for another 4 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A falling-out at PSM

Hilman Syah and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Words at PSM training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Luka Čumić is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

Door shut on Antônio

PSM asked and Náutico said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match1 Aug 2026

PSM get the job done against Maluku Utara United

A 1‑0 win over Maluku Utara United, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Market3 Aug 2026

Talks stall between PSM and Hilman Syah

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Rizky Eka stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.67 on the card, and the PSM support went home talking about one name.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Sheriddin Boboev runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 15. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

In brief

  • The dugout The view from the dugout
  • Market No place for Rasyid Bakri in the plan
  • The dugout The plan did not have a place for Reza Arya Pratama
