PFF eyes Azkals bubble buildup

A three-week bubble training camp in Carmona, Cavite, is on the pipeline for the Philippine Azkals as it prepares to compete in the resumption of hostilities of the FIFA World Cup in late-May, the Philippine Football Federation (PFF) said yesterday.

PFF chief Mariano ‘Nonong’ Araneta said the PFF national training center is ready to host the squad.

“We can do bubble training in Carmona. We’re looking at around three weeks of training then they will go to China,” said Araneta, who was also appointed as the country’s chief of mission for the Tokyo Olympics in July.
Since the surge of the coronavirus pandemic last year, the national squad has not been able to compete in the international stage.

In fact, its last appearance was more than a year ago, when it competed in the Southeast Asian Games last 2019.

If the PFF plans push through, Araneta said that they are targeting to send the athletes to China on 29 May, just in time for the resumption of the competition.
