Philippine Azkals star midfielder Stephan Schrock could see action for the national U-22 team for the country’s hosting of the 30th Southeast Asian Games next month.

Team manager Dan Palami said Schrock made known his intentions to reinforce the squad’s bid to secure a first-ever semifinal appearance in the men’s football competitions which starts Nov. 26 at the Rizal Memorial Stadium.

“Schrocky (Schrock’s nickname) has expressed interest to be part of the U-22 team as an over-aged player,” Palami said.

Nothing, however, is set in stone as Schrock has to complete his domestic duties with recently-crowned Philippines Football League champion Ceres-Negros.

Teams are allowed to tap a maximum of two over-aged players for the tournament which opens days before the formal start of the biennial meet on Nov. 30 at the Philippine Arena in Bocaue, Bulacan.

Serbian mentor Goran Milojevic will call the shots with help from Azkals coach Scott Cooper.
