Hung 'crossbar' joins Hai Phong Club
(Baonghean.vn) - According to the confirmation of assistant Pham Anh Tuan, the Lach Tray stadium team has successfully recruited central defender Pham Manh Hung on a free transfer.
Currently, Hung “crossbar” is in the Port City to practice with coach Ngo Quang Truong and his team. The terms of the contract have not been specifically disclosed by both sides. However, it is almost certain that Pham Manh Hung will be registered by Hai Phong Club to compete in the 2020 season.
As known, Pham Manh Hung is a player who grew up from the SLNA training center and has many years wearing the Nghe An team's shirt, competing in the V.League, the National Cup and the AFC Cup. In the past, the central defender born in 1993 wore the U23 Vietnam shirt to participate in the 2013 SEA Games and the 2015 SEA Games.

Unfortunately, in recent seasons, the player from Nghia Dan (Nghe An) has seen a noticeable decline in performance. Pham Manh Hung's usual position is on the bench. The end of the 2018 season is also the time when the contract between Hung "crossbar" and SLNA officially expires.
Instead of continuing to stay at Vinh Stadium, Pham Manh Hung chose to leave to develop his career. At first, the former U23 Vietnam player agreed to join Hai Phong Club, but at the last minute decided to join SHB Da Nang, with a 3-year contract.
At Hoa Xuan Stadium, Pham Manh Hung still could not find a place in the squad of coach Le Huynh Duc. 732 minutes is the total time that the former SLNA midfielder appeared on the field in the matches of the Han River team in V.League 2019. An extremely disappointing number for the 26-year-old player.
After a serious working session with the SHB Da Nang Board of Directors, Pham Manh Hung was released from his contract ahead of schedule. Hung “crossbar”’s next destination is Hai Phong Club, a team led by two former teachers at SLNA, head coach Ngo Quang Truong and assistant Pham Anh Tuan.
