The information about Coach Park Hang Seo negotiating with Ho Chi Minh City Club was announced by the city team last night (November 23). According to this information, the city team invited Coach Park Hang Seo to become the Club's Technical Director, and at the same time invited Mr. Park's former assistant, Mr. Lee Young Jin, to become the head coach.

After this information appeared, initially, Coach Park Hang Seo's representative company said there was no such negotiation, then they informed that there were negotiations but they had not reached a conclusion.

As for Ho Chi Minh City FC, the team is waiting for confirmation from DJ Management (the company representing Coach Park Hang Seo). Ho Chi Minh City FC said that the partner promised to respond to Mr. Park's matter today.

After receiving a reply letter from the company representing Mr. Park, Ho Chi Minh City Club knew exactly whether they had succeeded in signing a contract with the Korean coaching duo Park Hang Seo and Lee Young Jin or not.

Just a few days ago, Ho Chi Minh City FC parted ways with coach Vu Tien Thanh. Initially, the city team planned to invite coach Mano Polking (former coach of the Thai national team) to replace coach Vu Tien Thanh. But yesterday, the team changed their mind and invited coach Park Hang Seo and coach Lee Young Jin.

If Coach Park Hang Seo's representative company confirms agreement with Ho Chi Minh City Club today, Coach Lee Young Jin is expected to go to Ho Chi Minh City on the last day of November.

The leader of Ho Chi Minh City Club added: "I cannot talk about the contract term between Mr. Park and Ho Chi Minh City Club, because everything is still in the negotiation process."
