Justin Hubner Stays at Fortuna Sittard; Persija Jakarta Offer Rejected

Eredivisie club Fortuna Sittard has turned down a transfer bid for Indonesian international defender Justin Hubner, rejecting an offer from Persija Jakarta. Hubner, 22, is under contract with Fortuna until June 2028 and has expressed a desire to continue playing in Europe. He participated in pre‑season training and scored in a friendly against French side FC Metz, but the club will not permit a move to Indonesia.

The rumor of a transfer originated from fan‑run Instagram accounts, which reported that Persija Jakarta, coached by Shin Tae‑yong, had made a "million‑dollar" offer. Fortuna Sittard publicly stated that the player is not interested in joining Persija and that the club will retain him for the upcoming 2026/27 season. No official comment has been released by either club or the player.
