Madagascar attacking midfielder John Baggio is being linked with a move from Sukhothai FC to Thai League rivals Kanchanaburi FC.
The 34-year-old, who wears the number 10 shirt at Sukhothai, is the subject of transfer speculation within Thailand, with the proposed switch carrying a currently unquantified probability (“?”) and no confirmed agreement between the clubs. The move is being discussed against the backdrop of an unclear contract situation, with no expiry date listed for his deal at Sukhothai – a factor that has fuelled talk he could yet become a free agent if no extension is signed.
Baggio, valued at €250k on Transfermarkt, has built a reputation in the Thai League as a creative attacking midfielder capable of operating centrally behind the striker. Standing at 1.58m and preferring his right foot, the Antananarivo-born playmaker is known more for guile and vision than physical presence, and has long been regarded as one of the most technically proficient imports in the division.
The Madagascar international, born on 19 December 1991, has been a central figure for Sukhothai FC, featuring in the Thai League’s top flight and carrying the side’s creative burden. While detailed seasonal statistics and individual match figures are not listed in the current data, his continued presence in the starting XI for Sukhothai – including recent league outings in 2026 – underlines his ongoing importance in the final third.
Any move to Kanchanaburi FC would keep Baggio in the same competition, potentially offering a fresh role and tactical responsibility at another Thai League club without the need to adapt to a new country or football culture. If the transfer materialises, whether via a fee in line with his €250k valuation or as a free agent should his contract situation open that door, it could represent one of the final major decisions of his career and shape how the 34-year-old’s legacy in Thai football is ultimately viewed.
