Will Jon Cley be fit to play in the opening match with Song Lam Nghe An?
(Baonghean.vn) - Hanoi Police has officially loaned Jhon Cley to Song Lam Nghe An on a one-year contract. It is highly likely that the player will be available to play in the match between Song Lam Nghe An and Viettel in Round 1 of the V.League 2023/2024.
On the morning of October 21st, Mr. Nguyen Dinh Nghia - Deputy General Director of Song Lam Nghe An Club - confirmed that Jhon Cley has officially become a player for Song Lam Nghe An participating in the V.league 2023/2024. The striker will wear the number 9 jersey for the team based at Vinh Stadium.
The exchange between Jhon Cley and Ho Van Cuong has generated considerable media attention. Previously, the top scorer for Hanoi Police FC appeared at the team's send-off ceremony still wearing the team's kit. The media speculated that the Brazilian striker would continue his association with the reigning V.League 2023 champions.
However, with the desire of Song Lam Nghe An and the agreement of coach Tran Tien Dai, Jhon Cley has finally officially joined Song Lam Nghe An on a loan deal, with the contract between the player and the new team lasting one year.
Jhon Cley will wear the number 9 jersey for Song Lam Nghe An. Currently, Song Lam Nghe An is rushing to complete the procedures so that the Brazilian striker can play in the opening match of the V.League 2023/2024 against Viettel at 5:00 PM on October 22nd at Vinh Stadium.
Before Jhon Cley arrived at Vinh Stadium, Song Lam Nghe An had only registered two foreign players: center-back Mario and striker Olaha. The presence of Jhon Cley will help Song Lam Nghe An's attack become more explosive and effective.
In the 2023 season, Jhon Cley scored 11 goals and played a major role in helping Hanoi Police FC win the V.League championship. Therefore, the decision to let Jhon Cley go instead of Akwa Raphael Success was quite surprising from coach Tran Tien Dai.
