The coaching staff of the The Cong Tan Cang men's volleyball team has reached an agreement for Indonesian international player Rivan Nurmulki to come to Vietnam to participate in the first round of this year's tournament.
The tournament will be held from April 6 to April 19 in Dong Anh (Hanoi).
However, in addition to Rivan Nurmulki, the army team also strengthened with another foreign player.
Thus, the army team will have 2 foreign players in the first round of this year's tournament. According to Lao Dong's investigation, Rivan Nurmulki will come to Vietnam next week.
Before coming to Vietnam to compete, Rivan Nurmulki participated in the Thai National Championship. Last year, Rivan Nurmulki wore the jersey of The Cong Tan Cang team in the 2nd round of the 2025 National Championship held in Ninh Binh. The hitter helped coach Thai Anh Van's team reach the final and win the runner-up title.
Rivan Nurmulki has a height of 2m. The hitter plays his forte in the opposite hitter position. Rivan Nurmulki is a national team player of Indonesian men's volleyball.
It is expected that the 2nd foreign player of The Cong Tan Cang team will also appear in Vietnam next week. The The Cong Tan Cang team participated in the Hoa Lu Cup 2026 in Ninh Binh from March 18 to March 23. However, the team only used young players to increase experience, so The Cong Tan Cang only got 5th place in the tournament.
Currently, men's football teams such as The Cong Tan Cang, Bien Phong MB, Sanest Khanh Hoa, Da Nang, Hanoi... have found foreign players to prepare for round 1 of the 2026 National Club Championship.
