Maarten Vincent Paes (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈmaːrtə(n) ˈpa:s] mahr-ten pahz;[3] born 14 May 1998) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Major League Soccer club FC Dallas.
Club career
NEC
In the 2017–18 season, Paes served as a backup goalkeeper to Joris Delle at NEC[4]
Utrecht
On 4 April 2018, Paes signed with Utrecht on a three-year contract with an option for fourth year.[5] He made his Eredivisie debut for Utrecht on 19 August 2018 against PEC Zwolle.[6]
FC Dallas
On 20 January 2022, Paes joined MLS side FC Dallas on a six-month loan.[7] On 24 June 2022, Dallas exercised the option to make the transfer permanent.[8]
International career
Born in the Netherlands, Paes represented that nation at youth level before acquiring Indonesian citizenship with plans to play for the Indonesia national team.[9] He was a member of the Netherlands U19 squads for both 2016 UEFA European Under-19 Championship and 2017 UEFA European Under-19 Championship, but did not appear in any games, serving as backup to Yanick van Osch and Justin Bijlow respectively.
Paes is eligible to represent Indonesia through his grandmother who was born in Kediri. On 30 April 2024, he received Indonesian citizenship through naturalization, then needing permission from FIFA to become eligible to play for the national team. He was originally found to be ineligible, as he had represented the Netherlands under-21s at 22 years old, running into a FIFA regulation declaring that a player who has appeared for a national team at a competitive level over the age of 21 cannot change their national team.[10] On 18 August, PSSI chairman Erick Thohir confirmed that after a long process, Paes was officially declared eligible to represent the Indonesia internationally.[11]
Personal life
His maternal grandmother was born in Kediri, East Java, when it was called the Dutch East Indies.[12][10]
On 8 March 2024, FC Dallas announced Maarten Paes, Alan Velasco, and Tsiki Ntsabeleng had obtained U.S. Green cards, granting them permanent resident status in the United States.[13] On 30 April 2024, Paes officially acquired Indonesian citizenship.[14][15]
