(Baonghean.vn) - There are quite a few players from Nghe An who have taken on the role of captain for their home teams in V.League this year. Here are some notable faces.

After Tran Nguyen Manh and Ho Khac Ngoc left Vinh Stadium, the Tan Ky player had the honor of taking on the captain's armband of SLNA in the 2020 season. The decision of the Nghe An team's Board of Directors is quite reasonable, because recently, Hoang Van Khanh has proven his ability and importance in the hometown team's jersey. The former U23 Vietnam player has had the same honor as Nguyen Huu Thang, Nguyen Huy Hoang... in the past.
2. Tran Phi Son (HCMC Club)

With midfielder Do Van Thuan suffering a serious injury and having to take a long break from competition, coach Chung Hae-seong decided to give the captain's armband to the midfielder nicknamed "Vietnam's Ronaldo". This is something that has surprised experts and football fans in the country. Don't forget, since moving to Ho Chi Minh City Club (2018 season), the former SLNA player has not contributed much to his home team, due to injuries (he missed most of the 2019 season).
3. Bui Tien Dung (Viettel)

Despite the presence of the current captain of the Vietnam National Team - Que Ngoc Hai, former captain of Than Quang Ninh - Nguyen Minh Tuan, former captain of SLNA - Tran Nguyen Manh in the squad, the central defender nicknamed "Dung Tu" still continues to take on the role of captain of the army team in the 2020 season. Clearly, Bui Tien Dung is gradually becoming a symbol of Viettel, the team considered the "descendant of The Cong".
4. Dinh Thanh Trung (Quang Nam)

Although he is on the other side of his career (32 years old), the midfielder from Ha Tinh has still affirmed his talent and importance to the Tam Ky home team in recent seasons. The proof is that this season, Dinh Thanh Trung continues to be given the captain's armband by coach Vu Hong Viet of the Quang Nam team. A great honor for the 2017 Vietnam Golden Ball.
Meanwhile, the second representative of Nghe An football in the V.League arena, Hong Linh Ha Tinh, did not give the captain's armband to a local player. The captain of the "Nui Hong" team is former midfielder of the Vietnam National Team - Le Tan Tai./.
