According to research, the team will calculate a suitable force to plan to hire 1 additional foreign player to participate in the second phase of the 2025 National Volleyball Championship. However, a decision has not been made.
In the first phase, the Ho Chi Minh City women's team registered players including Tran Thi Cam Tu, Dao Thi Nhung, Phan Dang Thuy Huong, Dang Thi Huynh Nhi, Nguyen Thi Nha Phuong, Ngo Thi Luong Quynh, Bui Thi Khanh Huyen, Pham Thi Anh Nguyet, Phan Tran Thanh Mai, Nguyen Thi Cam Binh, Thach Thi Sam As, Huynh Thi Hoa Ly, Dang Thi My Duyen, Hoang Thi Thanh Ngoc, Truong Mong Kha, Le Thi Ngoc Tram.
The team's foreign player at that time was the main striker Lianet Garcia Anglada (Cuba). However, the Ho Chi Minh City team has lost 5 matches, so they are currently at the bottom of the women's table.
In the second phase, player Lianet Garcia Anglada will definitely not return to Vietnam. This hitter is a member of the Cuban Women's Volleyball Team that participated in the 2025 World Championship.
In the group stage of phase 2, coach Tran Hien and his students had to meet 2 strong teams, LPBank Ninh Binh and VTV Binh Dien Long An. Without the best force, it will be very difficult for them to get good results against these two opponents. The prospect of having to participate in the relegation round of the Ho Chi Minh City women's team is very high. Therefore, the coaching staff of this team needs foreign players to ensure the best results.
