When will Tien Linh win the V-League?

That is the question that Tien Linh can only answer after leaving Becamex TP.HCM (predecessor of Becamex Binh Duong) from the 2025-2026 V-League season.

In his list of achievements, striker Nguyen Tien Linh only lacks the most prestigious club-level title, the V-League gold medal. The striker born in 1997 has never won the title.

Making his debut in the 2016 season, Tien Linh gradually matured and played an important role at Becamex Binh Duong before the club changed its name. However, Tien Linh was not lucky.

The team from the land of the capital was once a force in Vietnamese football, known as "Chelsea Vietnam" with many Dream Teams. The golden age was 2014, 2015 when Becamex Binh Duong Club won many titles.

Football changes, the balance changes direction, since Tien Linh became a professional in 2016, Binh Duong football has started to follow a sine wave graph. The team only has one National Cup title in 2018.

That was also Tien Linh's most successful period on a personal level. He first emerged as the "domestic top scorer" in the 2018 season and then in the 2024-2025 season. In addition, Linh "snail" also won the AFF Cup 2018 and AFF Cup 2024 with the Vietnamese team and the Golden Ball 2024.

For a Vietnamese player, not winning the V-League is not considered a success. But staying at Binh Duong for so long, no one knows when Tien Linh will reach his KPI.

Becamex Binh Duong Club has passed its golden age. Along with the instability in the management at the top, the inconsistent policies below have caused the club to lose its identity.

Waiting for the big team to return like before is not enough time for Tien Linh. This year, 28 years old, the number 1 striker of the Vietnam national team is more eager than ever to win the V-League championship once.

Saying goodbye to Becamex TP.HCM now opens up a new stepping stone for Tien Linh to complete his unfinished dream. Tien Linh's future team is known to have a lot of ambition.

When debuting in the new shirt, Tien Linh can answer fans when he will add the V-League championship title to his personal collection.
