Cong Vinh liquidates 13 players

Ho Chi Minh City Club announced the liquidation of 13 players in the ambition of 'blood change' of Acting President Le Cong Vinh.

Ho Chi Minh City FC surprised everyone when they announced the departure of 13 players. The names that will not be joining the team for V-League 2018 include Do Thanh Sang, Luong Van Nhan, Nguyen Tuan Anh, Vo Duy Nam, Nguyen Anh Tai, Trinh Quang Vinh, Chau Le Phuoc Vinh, Le Manh Dung, Nguyen Trong Phi, Nguyen Hong Viet, Quoc Thien Esele, Victor and Da Sylva.

13 names said goodbye to Ho Chi Minh City Club according to Cong Vinh's blood change plan.

Explaining the reason for parting with a series of players, Acting Chairman Le Cong Vinh said: “The number of players who were released were not only poor in skills but also lacked effort in training. It is better to push young players to replace them than to keep them. In the case of Nguyen Anh Tai, he proactively asked to leave. I plan to bring 3 to 4 more players from the youth team to the first team.”

Besides saying goodbye to a series of names, Cong Vinh also revealed the personnel plan: “Basically, we have agreed on terms with coach Toshiya Miura as well as Tran Phi Son. Now is not the time to announce new contracts right away. We plan to bring in 10 new faces.”

Ho Chi Minh City Club previously recruited two new players, goalkeeper Thanh Diep (XSKT Can Tho) and defender Sam Ngoc Duc (Hanoi FC)./.
