Pham Xuan Manh recovers, flies to Khanh Hoa to join SLNA

Pham Xuan Manh was injured in the match at Thien Truong Stadium against Nam Dinh in round 18. The midfielder born in 1996 was diagnosed with a sprained ankle and had to be treated at the PVF center for the past two weeks.

Today, August 14, after doctors examined his injury, it was shown that Xuan Manh has recovered and can practice again. Tomorrow, August 15, the former U23 Vietnam player will fly straight to Khanh Hoa to join SLNA.

However, Xuan Manh's ability to play is still uncertain because he has just suffered an injury, so letting Manh play immediately would be a risky decision. Xuan Manh may be able to play again in the match against Ho Chi Minh City in round 22.

Currently, SLNA is ranked 6th with 27 points. If they do not win against Khanh Hoa, the Nghe An team will certainly fall to the bottom of the V.League 2019 rankings.

In the match on August 18, SLNA will welcome the return of midfielder Ho Khac Ngoc after being suspended in the previous round. Some other minor injuries such as Van Binh, The Nhat, Xuan Thang have also begun to recover.
