Suree Sukha is a Thai footballer, currently a free agent after an attempted to move to Manchester City, following a two-week trial with fellow Thai internationals Kiatprawut Saiwaeo and Teerasil Dangda, fell through. Sukha's contract was set to be signed by the English club, but his work permit application was denied by the British Home Office as players originating from countries outside of the FIFA-ranked top 70 do not qualify according to Home Office guidelines. He also failed to pass on a clause requiring players to have participated in 75% of their country's internationals in the two years previous to the submission of the permit application.[2] Following an appeal by Manchester City, a hearing has been scheduled for mid-October. Suree was released by his former club, Chonburi F.C., in order to allow Manchester City to sign him as a free agent outside of the transfer window.Formerly of Chonburi FC, Suree is a current Thailand international, and was in the squad for the 2007 AFC Asian Cup.
