Striker Alex Bui is eager to wear the Vietnam National Team jersey.
Overseas Vietnamese player Alex Bui attracted attention during the U22 Vietnam training session with his good technique, modern thinking and desire to wear the Vietnam National Team jersey.
Overseas Vietnamese player Alex Bui is one of the faces that received a lot of attention during the Vietnam U22 team's gathering, aiming for the 2026 U23 Asian Qualifiers and the 33rd Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games).
Born in 2005 and growing up in a professional football environment in the Czech Republic, Alex shows many outstanding qualities such as flexible ball handling ability, good tactical thinking and solid technical foundation.
However, in the first days of joining the team, Alex Bui still encountered certain obstacles in the integration process. The difference in time zone, weather and language barrier prevented him from communicating much with his teammates. Sharing in the training session on the afternoon of June 5, Alex Bui frankly expressed:
“I feel a bit tired, not used to the time zone and the weather is a bit hot, but I have to try to adapt. I want to help the team as much as possible, practice well and get to know my friends. I also want to wear the National Team shirt, but not right now.”

In the practice match with the Vietnam National Team on June 4, Alex Bui had his first taste of high-level competition. Although there are still many things to improve, the player born in 2005 still left a few positive impressions:
Limited communication is one of the biggest challenges Alex is facing. “It’s hard to compare the atmosphere between the Czech Republic and here,” he said. “You know, I can talk to everyone in the Czech Republic, but it’s not like that here. I only talk a lot with Viktor Le. Sometimes my teammates ask me this and that, I just give simple answers.”
However, Alex remained positive in his first days back in Vietnam: “I like being in Vietnam. I also like eating pho.”
Alex Bui was born on November 15, 2005 in Prague, Czech Republic. He started playing football at the age of 10 in the FK Meteor Praha Youth Team. After that, Alex joined the youth training system of Bohemians Praha 1905 Club, one of the prestigious football training centers in the Czech Republic. In the 2024/2025 season, before being called up to the Vietnam U22 Team, Alex played 16 matches in the Czech Second Division, scoring 2 goals and contributing 2 assists.
If he continues to maintain stable performance, Alex Bui has every chance to be promoted to Bohemians' first team in the near future./.
