A warning in the "storm" of naturalized players

VHO - The heavy defeat against Malaysia not only caused the Vietnamese team to lose hope of qualifying for the 2027 Asian Cup, but also sounded a wake-up call for the country's football development strategy in the context of strong changes in regional teams, especially in taking advantage of naturalized players.

At the Decision awarding ceremony, VFF representative, Mr. Nguyen Minh Chau - Deputy General Secretary congratulated Hendrio and now Do Hoang Hen - on officially becoming Vietnamese citizens.
