Sharing at the Hanoi Club's Departure Ceremony on August 13, striker Tuan Hai revealed his intention to play abroad.
"I always want to go abroad to develop my career. I personally expressed my wish to the club's board about receiving an offer from a team from Latvia. However, time is relatively short as the European transfer market is about to close," said the 27-year-old striker.
With this information, it is not ruled out that Tuan Hai will leave Hanoi FC this season to welcome new challenges and career development opportunities in Europe.
Hanoi club also affirmed that it will support Tuan Hai so that this player can go abroad.
CEO Nguyen Quoc Tuan said: During the contract extension with Tuan Hai, Hanoi FC confirmed that it would help him play abroad.
Recently, we have been looking for proposals for Tuan Hai. Both sides set a goal that if there are the best offers, the team will create conditions for him to realize his dream".
Tuan Hai's contract with the capital team still runs until 2027. However, this player has never given up the desire to go abroad to develop himself. If he can come to Latvia to compete, this will be a big step forward in the 27-year-old striker's career.
However, going abroad to Europe to compete is not easy. Looking at the example of Quang Hai, Van Hau or further Cong Phuong, choosing the right team is difficult, let alone the ability to adapt and integrate with the new environment and new teammates.
Therefore, before deciding, Tuan Hai needs to be cautious and choose a destination that suits his abilities and qualifications.
Pham Tuan Hai is one of the best strikers in Vietnamese football at present. The player born in 1998 won the title of Vietnam Silver Ball 2022, Vietnam Bronze Ball 2023, ASEAN Cup 2024 champion, and competed prominently in the AFC Champions League 2023-2024 with 3 goals.
