Thanh Thuy receives new news in Japan
According to research, in the 2026-2027 season, the Japanese national volleyball championship will continue to create favorable conditions for foreign players to play. It is known that the organizers will allow 4 foreign players to play in the following season, including a maximum of 3 foreign players from Europe and America.
Notably, Asian foreign players will not be limited to playing. This is good news for main attacker Tran Thi Thanh Thuy, middle blocker Bich Thuy as well as Vietnamese athletes.
Thanh Thuy and Bich Thuy are playing impressively in the Japan National Championship 2025-2026. With the new regulations, this is a great opportunity for the two players to continue playing in the leading volleyball background in Asia.

The implementation of the "open" policy for foreign players is assessed to help Japanese volleyball continue to improve the competitiveness, professional quality of the tournament as well as domestic players.
