Recently, striker Tran Thi Thanh Thuy has parted ways with Gresik Petrokimia (Indonesia) after only 1 month of playing for the club, although the initial contract between the two sides lasted for one season. This is the shortest overseas trip of the 1997-born striker ever.
During that short time, Thanh Thuy played 7 matches, won 2 matches with her teammates and ranked 5/7 on the rankings.
The reason Thanh Thuy ended her contract with the Indonesian team early could be because her physical condition was not yet guaranteed after injury treatment, or because of the head coach's professional requirements.
Whatever the reason, Thanh Thuy's return home before the end of her contract has left Vietnamese volleyball fans regretful and worried for this female athlete.
Before that, Thanh Thuy also had a short time playing for Kuzeyboru (Türkiye). She joined the team in early September 2024 and said goodbye after only 2 quick months.
This overseas trip of the 28-year-old striker received great expectations from fans, but her injury has not yet recovered, so she does not have many opportunities to play and her dream in Europe is unfinished.
After two unsuccessful trips abroad, Thanh Thuy has returned to Vietnam. Most likely, the Binh Duong player will not rush to go abroad in the near future but will join VTV Binh Dien Long An to participate in tournaments in early 2025 such as Hoa Lu - Binh Dien Cup, phase 1 of the national championship, Hung Vuong Cup...
Above all, at this time Tran Thi Thanh Thuy needs to fully recover from her injury, regain her form and confidence to quickly regain her position.
In addition, this year, the Vietnamese women's volleyball team will participate in two important tournaments: the FIVB Volleyball Women's World Championship and the 33rd SEA Games. Of course, fans all want to see Thanh Thuy return with the national team.
