However, some sources speculate that Duc Giang Chemicals will negotiate to invite hitter Kuttika Kaewpin (Thailand) to Vietnam. Currently, this team has not confirmed information about foreign players.
Duc Giang Chemicals is the national runner-up. In the first phase, the team hired hitter Sharon Chepchumba Kiprono (Kenya). Despite having quality foreign players, Duc Giang Chemicals team only won 2 matches and lost 3 matches, so they were temporarily ranked 5th. The team still has a chance to enter the final round if they compete effectively in the second phase of the 2025 National Championship. The team has long-term hired foreign player Tichaya Boonlert (Thailand).
Kuttika Kaewpin plays as a main striker. She is a member of the Thai Women's Volleyball Team. This hitter participated in the Thai U21 team at the VTV Cup 2025 but then returned home early to join the national team in the 2025 National League.
Currently, Kuttika Kaewpin is competing in the 2025 SEALECT Cup in Thailand in the PEA Sisaket squad.
In 2024, Kuttika Kaewpin played for Duc Giang Chemicals in the VTV9-Binh Dien 2024 International Women's Volleyball Cup. This player played for the Bac Ninh women's team in the national A-class tournament in 2024.
However, when the Duc Giang Chemicals team announced foreign players, the identity of the new athlete was specific. All rumors have not been confirmed.
The Duc Giang Chemical team has not participated in the 2025 Kovo Cup in Korea due to problems with new regulations of FIVB. In the upcoming phase 2, middle blocker Tran Thi Bich Thuy will continue to play for Duc Giang Chemicals before having a professional plan in Japan.
