Former U21 SLNA captain joins Pho Hien Club
(Baonghean.vn) - Because he is not in SLNA's plan for next season, striker Pham Duc Thong has decided to join Pho Hien Club, with a 2-year contract.
This is quite surprising news for Nghe An football fans, because Pham Duc Thong just had a successful season with Pho Hien Club, on loan from SLNA.
Playing for Hung Yen football team, Pham Duc Thong scored 3 goals and contributed 1 assist in the 2019 First Division. The achievement of winning a ticket to the play-off match with Thanh Hoa Club of coach Hua Hien Vinh and his team, had no small contribution from Pham Duc Thong.

It was thought that, with the visible progress of Pham Duc Thong in recent times, the Nghe An team would give this player the opportunity to prove his talent in the 2020 season. However, instead of giving Pham Duc Thong a professional contract, SLNA decided to let the 22-year-old striker leave freely (the youth training contract ended). The next destination of the former U21 SLNA captain (2018) is Pho Hien Club, the team that Pham Duc Thong played for last season.
