In line with Education Minister Ong Ye Kung's admission that the government are making plans to bring in more foreign talent as locals lack talent, the Football Association of Singapore is also following suit.
FAS announced that they have plans to revive the foreign talent scheme, but said that it is for a long term development, thus the foreign talent brought in must be very young. By the time the young foreign talents have been identified and received his citizenship, he should still be around 23 years of age, with a lot of good football ahead of him to represent Singapore.
While the foreign talent scheme has been a hit and miss in Singapore, this latest admission proves there really is a lack of talented locals who can make it professional players
