This is the second time the 58-year-old strategist has assumed the position of head coach of the coastal city team.
Sharing on his return day, coach Vo Dinh Tan said that the team will face many difficulties when the successor force of Khanh Hoa football has been interrupted for many years. According to him, the team needs time to build a stable force and aim to improve achievements in the new season.
The leadership of Khanh Hoa Club said that the appointment of Mr. Vo Dinh Tan is in line with the development orientation of the team. In parallel with that, the team is actively adding personnel to enhance competitiveness in the 2026-2027 First Division season.
Mr. Vo Dinh Tan is a name associated with Khanh Hoa football for many years. After retiring in 2001, the former defender of Phu Khanh team switched to youth training, in charge of many talented players before taking on the role of head coach.
His biggest mark came from 2013, when Khanh Hoa football had to be rebuilt after the first team transferred a playing spot in the V.League to Hai Phong. Under the leadership of Mr. Vo Dinh Tan, the team successively won the right to promote to the First Division in 2014, before returning to the V.League in the 2015 season.
At the end of 2023, after a series of unsatisfactory results, Mr. Vo Dinh Tan resigned, ending more than a decade of attachment in the position of head coach. In the last two seasons, the team was led by Mr. Tran Trong Binh in the First Division.
The return of Mr. Vo Dinh Tan is expected to help Khanh Hoa team stabilize its force, gradually build a professional foundation and aim for positive results in the 2026-2027 season.
