Huy Hoang leaves football to pursue business

(Baonghean) - At the age of 34 and more importantly, after all the sad stories related to his career, Huy Hoang also wants to make a turning point to ensure his life. Therefore, after parting ways with XSKT.Can Tho, the former SLNA Captain returned and decided to retire from football. Recently, he and his wife opened a fashion store on Nguyen Van Cu Street (Vinh City).

After the sad story that happened in Thanh Hoa, Huy Hoang had high hopes of regaining what he had lost. In addition to living separately to have more time to take care of his family, Hoang also practiced day and night to maintain his feeling and form. However, when his steps became heavy due to age, it no longer "supported" Hoang in terms of professional ability. Unable to find a solid foothold in the Nghe An team, Hoang decided to join the First Division team XSKT.Can Tho to play more often. However, at SLNA and later XSKT.Can Tho, although Hoang was very diligent and found a common voice with his teammates, his form did not match.

As the captain, the person who represented all the players participating in the 2014 First Division tournament stood up to take the oath at the opening ceremony, but when he failed to meet expectations, XSKT.Can Tho still had to resolutely propose liquidation. Putting aside his sadness and carrying his backpack back to his hometown, the "drunken scandal" in Thanh Hoa once again haunted him, as it was the starting point for a chain of bad things for this central defender. Haunted by debt, and a troubled career in the final stages, Hoang has recently lived in seclusion. Withdrawing to find a new direction, but leaving football life to focus on another field is not easy for a player whose football is deeply ingrained in his blood.

When seeing Huy Hoang having to live in such difficult circumstances, some people advised this central defender to meet SLNA leaders and ask to work there. In fact, with more than ten years of attachment and dedication, a position for Hoang at the Song Lam "furnace" would not be difficult for anyone. Even those in charge at SLNA once "gave the green light" for Hoang to reunite with his old home. But the main thing is, Huy Hoang feels that football is "unfair" so he wants to quit completely to have a peaceful life. Normally, Hoang often goes to the amateur playgrounds with his "juniors" from his time at SLNA. But this time, returning from Can Tho, Hoang disappeared. Then when they learned that Huy Hoang and his wife were in the fashion business, many people understood that this central defender wanted to cut all ties with football to switch to another field. With his wide connections when he was a famous player at SLNA, it was not difficult for Hoang to approach the business profession.

Before that, Hoang's wife Phuong Le also did fashion business and many other fields and Hoang was the one who supported him whenever he was not training or competing. However, when he put football aside, business became really serious for Hoang and now, it is his career, not football anymore.
