According to Lao Dong's investigation, Vietinbank women's volleyball team did not hire foreign players after parting ways with Finnish striker Suvi Kokkonen.
Coach Le Van Dung's team will participate in the VTV9 - Binh Dien Cup from May 15 to May 23 in Tay Ninh.
The team will focus on using the domestic players currently in the squad to accumulate experience when competing in this tournament in Tay Ninh.
In the latest preparation, Vietinbank team welcomed the return of middle blocker Nguyen Phuong Quynh after she was loaned to Hanoi team to participate in the Hung Vuong Cup 2026. At the Hung Vuong Cup 2026, Phuong Quynh and Hanoi women's team won the championship.
However, Vietinbank team will not have the service of main attacker H Mia Ê Ban and setter Nguyen Van Ha at VTV9 - Binh Dien Cup 2026. Player H Mia Ê Ban has returned to Dak Lak team and Nguyen Van Ha returned to Bac Ninh team to participate in the 2026 National League A Championship in Dien Bien.
It is known that Vietinbank team will strengthen young players to supplement the above positions. Currently, this team also has player Ngoc Tram who has played as a seasoned setter. Earlier this year, Ngoc Tram joined Vietinbank team after ending her contract with VTV Binh Dien Long An team.
At the VTV - Binh Dien Cup 2026, Vietinbank team will compete in Group A with Jiangsu (China), VTV Binh Dien Long An and Binh Chung Thong Tin.
