Thai fans demand Madam Pang to rescue former Chelsea star before Asian Cup

According to Siamsport, Thai fans are urging Madam Pang to intervene when naturalized striker Jude Soonsup-Bell is suddenly limited in playing time at Grimsby Town Club before the 2027 Asian Cup.

According to Siamsport, Thai fans are urging the President of the Football Association of Thailand (FAT), Nualphan Lamsam, to quickly "rescue" naturalized striker Jude Soonsup-Bell, in the context of this player unexpectedly losing his position at Grimsby Town Club in England.

According to Siamsport, Soonsup-Bell was once considered one of the biggest hopes for Thailand's national team's attack heading into the 2027 Asian Cup. The 22-year-old player, born in England with a Thai mother, grew up in Chelsea's academy from 2016–2021 and was highly rated in English youth football.

After playing for Córdoba in Spain, Soonsup-Bell returned to England to join Grimsby Town. However, recently, he has consistently been relegated to the bench, even not being used despite fully recovering from injury.

In the most recent match against Crawley Town, this naturalized striker was only on the substitute list and not brought onto the field. The lack of playing opportunities worries Thai fans that his form and feel for the ball will be seriously affected before the important campaign.

Nevertheless, in the Thai national team jersey, Jude Soonsup-Bell has left a positive impression with 3 appearances, scoring 2 goals and contributing significantly to the 2-1 victory over Turkmenistan, helping the "War Elephants" secure a spot in the 2027 Asian Cup.

Siamsport reports that many Thai fans are urging Madam Pang to intervene, aiming to find a solution to help this player improve his situation at the club, ensuring he maintains form for the national team. In the context where key players like Chanathip Songkrasin, Sarach Yooyen, and Theerathon Bunmathan are aging, Soonsup-Bell is seen as a crucial element for the future of the "War Elephants" at the 2027 Asian Cup.
