(Baonghean.vn) - On the afternoon of September 24, central defender Que Ngoc Hai officially debuted for B.Binh Duong Club to compete in V-League 2023-2024.
After 2 seasons playing for Song Lam Nghe An, central defender Que Ngoc Hai said goodbye to his hometown team at the end of Group B's relegation race in V-League 2023.

InformationQue Ngoc Hai joins B.Binh Duong Clubhas been available since late August, before he joined the Vietnam national team for the friendly match with Palestine on September 11. However, both B.Binh Duong Club and Que Ngoc Hai said they were in the process of negotiation and have only now officially announced it.
Details of the contract were not disclosed by both parties. However, there is information that B.Binh Duong Club paid Que Ngoc Hai 12 billion VND for a 2-year contract with a salary of about 100 million VND/month.
This is considered a record transfer fee for a 30-year-old domestic defender like Que Ngoc Hai. However, for a team that has won the V-League 4 times and almost been relegated like B.Binh Duong in V-League 2023, it is a suitable price.

This is not only because B.Binh Duong Club has changed the way they play football - spending money to buy stars again instead of prioritizing using homegrown players in the past, but also because they can achieve high results in V-League 2023-2024.
B.Binh Duong Club has conceded 23 goals after 18 matches in V-League 2023, the second most in the group of 6 teams racing to avoid relegation, after Ho Chi Minh City Club (32 goals). Therefore, the presence of Que Ngoc Hai will help the team of Thu Dau Mot improve its defense. With Que Ngoc Hai, striker Nguyen Tien Linh also agreed to re-sign with B.Binh Duong Club instead of choosing to leave.
Previously, B.Binh Duong also bought and introduced two former national players, central midfielder Nguyen Hai Huy and goalkeeper Vu Tuyen Quang.
The Da Nang team also re-signed a contract with coach Le Huynh Duc, a former famous player who will only return to the team at the end of the 2023 season.
With more training time and more quality stars, Coach Le Huynh Duc promises to take B.Binh Duong Club to high altitude in the 2023-2024 season.
