Sandy Walsh Officially Joins Buriram United, Set to Compete in Thai League 1
Sandy Walsh has been officially registered as part of Buriram United’s squad for the 2025-26 Thai League 1 season, marking a significant move for the Indonesian national team defender. The confirmation came through the league’s official website, signaling Buriram’s ambition to strengthen their defense and maintain dominance in Thailand’s top football division. Walsh, who will wear the number 14 jersey, joins fellow Indonesian international Shayne Pattynama, who transferred earlier this season.
Before this transfer, Walsh played for Yokohama F. Marinos in Japan’s J1 League, having signed a contract that was originally set to run until June 2027. During his time in Japan, the Belgian-born player made a notable contribution with 12 appearances, registering one assist and receiving a single yellow card. Despite this ongoing commitment, his move to Buriram United reflects a new chapter in his career and a shift to Southeast Asia’s competitive football scene.
The Thai media widely reported Walsh’s arrival at Buriram United, highlighting the club’s intent to reinforce their defense with strong ASEAN players ahead of the new season. Although Buriram United has not yet made an official statement, the Thai League’s official roster listing confirms Walsh’s involvement and his role in the team’s quest for another championship. His addition alongside Pattynama adds depth and international experience to the squad.
Walsh’s transfer brings fresh excitement to Buriram United fans and raises expectations for the team’s performance in the upcoming season. As a ten-time Thai League champion, Buriram is clearly aiming to remain at the top, and the inclusion of a seasoned international defender like Walsh is seen as a strategic move to secure their defensive strength. This development also underscores the increasing presence of Indonesian players in prominent Southeast Asian clubs.
