Ragnar Oratmangoen Disappears from Radar, Bali United Linked with Three New Players
Transfer rumours surrounding Bali United continue to develop ahead of the new season. Previously, Indonesian national team player Ragnar Oratmangoen was heavily tipped to move to the Island of the Gods, but his name has now disappeared from the Transfermarkt website. Amid the fading of that rumour, three new names have emerged as potential recruits for Serdadu Tridatu: Tim Geypens, Gabriel Mutombo, and Queven.
The first name linked with Bali United is Tim Geypens. The naturalised player, who has represented the Indonesia U-20 national team, currently plays his club football in the Netherlands. The 21-year-old left-back plays for FC Emmen in the second tier of Dutch football, and his contract is set to expire on 30 June 2026.
Another name is Gabriel Mutombo, a 30-year-old French foreign player who operates as a centre-back. During the 2025/2026 season, Mutombo played for Ratchaburi FC in the Thai League, where he posted impressive statistics, scoring one goal in 24 domestic league appearances. He also participated in the AFC Champions League, recording nine appearances and contributing one goal.
The third player linked with the club is Brazilian central midfielder Queven, whose full name is Queven da Silva Inacio. He previously played for Thai club Chonburi FC and is currently a free agent after his contract was not renewed. He is seen as a potential replacement for the departed Mirza Mustafic in midfield.
Regarding these rumours, Bali United management has not denied them, stating that transfer speculation is common when entering a new season. However, they are not yet willing to disclose details to the public. Media Officer Alexander Mahaputra confirmed that several foreign player names have been communicated by management and that these players are currently undergoing processes including medical checks and administrative completion. He added that video introductions are also being prepared and asked fans to wait for the official player releases. Following the end of the 2025/2026 Super League season, Bali United have already released two foreign players, Mirza Mustafic and Diego Campos.
