Evan Dimas Darmono (born 13 March 1995) is an Indonesian professional footballer who currently plays for Persebaya Surabaya in the Indonesia Super League as a midfielder. His nickname of Anak Ajaib (Wonderkid) was given to him by his fellow players in SSB Mitra Surabaya and Persebaya because of his talents.[1]

Personal life

He was born in Surabaya, East Java, to Condro Permono, a security guard, and Ana.[2][3] Evan Dimas is a devout Muslim who celebrates every goal by performing the Sujud.[4] He is currently also enrolled as a second year student at the University of Dr. Soetomo, Surabaya, studying Public Administration.[5]

His favourite player and inspiration is FC Barcelona midfielder, Andrés Iniesta.[6] He has idolised Persebaya Surabaya since childhood.[7]

Club career

Youth

He played for local youth team SSB Sasana Bhakti for two years before joining SSB Mitra Surabaya.[1] He also trained in Spain after being chosen with other Indonesian young players to visit FC Barcelona's training facilities.[5]

Persebaya Surabaya

On November 11, 2014, he signed a four-year contract with Persebaya Surabaya.[8] In November 2014, Australian side Brisbane Roar was interested in loaning him from Persebaya on a one-year loan deal.[9] He trained for the first time since signing for Persebaya on December 10, 2014, scoring one goal in a training match.[7] He made his debut on 5 April 2015, replacing Siswanto in the 85th minute of a 1–0 victory against Mitra Kukar at Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium.[10]

International career

He was the captain of the Indonesia U-17 and Indonesia U-19 that won the 2012 HKFA International Youth Invitation, 2013 HKFA International Youth Invitation and 2013 AFF U-19 Youth Championship.[11][12][13][14] He scored five goals in the 2013 AFF U-19 Youth Championship and became the topscorer for Indonesia U-19 in this tournament.[15][16] He scored two goals in the 2013 HKFA International Youth Invitation.[17][18]

In October 2013, he led Indonesia U-19 to qualify for the 2014 AFC U-19 Championship, a qualification competition for the 2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup, after topping Group G in the qualification with three win in three matches, including a 3-2 win over defending champion South Korea U-19. He scored four goals in the qualifications, including a hattrick against South Korea U-19.[19] As preparation for the 2014 AFC U-19 Championship, he played for twelve unofficial matches, including 2014 Hassanal Bolkiah Trophy, and one FIFA official match with the U-19 national team, in which he played in all those matches.[20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] Unfortunately he failed to help Indonesia U-19 to secure a place in the 2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup, after losing all three matches in the 2014 AFC U-19 Championship.[28][29][30]

He made his international debut with Indonesia on November 28, 2014, against Laos, scoring his first international goal and making one assist.[31][32] Despite already debuted for the senior national team, he was still called to the Indonesia U-23 team and debuted in a 1-1 draw against Syria U-23 on February 10, 2015.[33]
