On the afternoon of February 25, striker Nguyen Xuan Son was in Ho Chi Minh City to prepare to attend the 2024 Vietnam Golden Ball Awards Gala.
Because he has only had Vietnamese nationality since the end of 2024, last year, Xuan Son was still nominated in the category of Outstanding Foreign Player.
It is known that Xuan Son is the only player in this category invited by the organizing committee to attend the gala. Therefore, the possibility of him receiving the award is very high.
Sharing right after being in Ho Chi Minh City, Xuan Son said that the Golden Ball awards gala was a special occasion for him personally.
The upcoming Gala Ballon dOr is a special and respectful occasion for me personally. I myself have always tried my best in every work, but I would never have succeeded without the help of the leaders, coaching staff, teammates and logistics team of the Vietnam team to the Nam Dinh team.
I would like to thank everyone for always supporting me to achieve my success, Xuan Son shared.
When asked about the player who can receive the Golden Ball, Xuan Son predicted: In the past year, Tien Linh played well at the club and the Vietnam national team. He has a chance to win the Vietnam Golden Ball. Other people also had worthy moments, but personally I see Tien Linh as the most outstanding of all.
The 2024 Vietnam Golden Ball Awards Gala will take place tomorrow (February 26). In the men's category, 3 players are on the final list to compete for the highest title: Tien Linh, Hoang Duc and Tuan Hai.
