The squad include Buriram United midfielder Airfan Doloh, who is nursing an injury.

But his teammate and forward Suphanat Mueanta was not in the team as he will reportedly go to train with English Premier League club Leicester City, reports the Bangkok Post.

Thailand coach Issara Sritaro said he was happy with the squad which will be trimmed to 20 men. The players will begin training tomorrow.

The SEA Games in Cambodia will officially take place from May 5-17 but the men’s football tournament will be held from Apr 29-May 16.

Group A features hosts Cambodia, Indonesia, Myanmar, the Philippines and Timor Leste.

Thailand have failed to win the gold medal in the previous two Games in 2019 and 2022.

The two tournaments were won by Vietnam.
