Background and career
Abdul Sulaiman Kadir (Indonesian pronunciation: [ˈabdul kaˈdir]; 27 December 1948 – 4 April 2003) was an Indonesian professional football player and manager. He is regarded as the greatest Indonesian player ever.
Kadir played as a winger in the Indonesia national team from 1967 to 1979. Due to his agility in maneuvering the ball, Kadir got himself a nickname of "the Deer" (Indonesian: Kancil). He is the record holder in terms of both appearances and goal scoring for Indonesia. In December 2021, Kadir was confirmed by FIFA to have played 105 "A" international matches (111 as recognized by RSSSF) at the international level to become a member of the FIFA Century Club, the only Indonesian footballer to do so.
