(Baonghean.vn) - To prepare for the 2021 season, the Board of Directors of Ba Ria - Vung Tau Club has decided to extend the contract with central defender Nguyen Xuan Luan for another year.

Nguyen Xuan Luan was born in 1987 in Quy Hop district (Nghe An). Although he is a product of SLNA's training center, Nguyen Xuan Luan has never played for the Nghe An team in the V.League or National Cup. At the end of the 2010 season, Nguyen Xuan Luan left SLNA to develop his career.

Before joiningBa Ria - Vung Tau ClubAt the beginning of the 2020 season, Nguyen Xuan Luan was a player of Hoa Phat Hanoi (2011), Hanoi Club (2012), Vissai Ninh Binh (2013), Thanh Hoa (2014), B.Binh Duong (2015 - 2019). Thus, up to this point, Nguyen Xuan Luan has played for 6 different teams, with the most prestigious title being the position ofV.League champion2015.

The first season at the team nicknamed "the seagulls" did not go smoothly, when the 33-year-old player had to take a long break due to injury. From a collision in the match between Ba Ria - Vung Tau Club and Saigon Club in the 2020 National Cup qualifying round, Nguyen Xuan Luan suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee and missed the rest of the season.

I thought entering this year's season,Nguyen Xuan Luanwill be among the players not retained by Ba Ria - Vung Tau Club. However, seeing that Nguyen Xuan Luan's physical condition and performance are still guaranteed, the Board of Directors of Ba Ria - Vung Tau Club has decided to give him a 1-year contract.

With the successful retention of veteran central defender Nguyen Xuan Luan, the Board of Directors of Ba Ria - Vung Tau Club is expecting the "sea eagles" to win the right to be promoted in the 2021 season./.
