It is known that the contract between Tran Dinh Dong and Song Lam Nghe An is valid until the end of this season.

With a height of only approximately 1m68, Bui Dinh Chau is the shortest player of Song Lam Nghe An at the present time. However, the central midfielder born in 1996 is highly appreciated for his strong physical foundation and enthusiastic, fiery fighting spirit. It is no coincidence that in the past 2 seasons, Bui Dinh Chau has always been highly appreciated by the Coaching Board of Song Lam Nghe An.

5. Tallest player

Foreign player Michael Olaha is currently the player with the most ideal height of Song Lam Nghe An, with a measurement of up to 1m86. Despite having such a "tall" physique, the Nigerian striker possesses a very skillful personal technical foundation with a rather "strange" left foot. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Michael Olaha is one of the most worth-watching foreign players in V.League 2022./.
