SLNA recruits Felipe Martins: 'Sweeping away the small fry'?
(Baonghean.vn) - It is almost certain that striker Felipe Martins will be signed by SLNA in the mid-season transfer period of 2020.
Currently, the former HAGL player is in Vinh to practice with Phan Van Duc and his teammates. If he meets the requirements of the SLNA coaching staff, Felipe Martins will be registered by the Nghe An team to compete in the rest of this season.

Before coming to SLNA, Felipe Martins had an unsuccessful trial period in Hai Phong and spent half of the 2019 season playing for HAGL. At Mr. Duc's team, the Brazilian striker played 10 matches and scored only 3 goals. A rather modest achievement.
Objectively speaking, Felipe Martins' playing style is not very special. From personal technique to running and finishing ability, everything is at an average level. That is also the main reason why the player born in 1990 did not have his contract renewed by the Pleiku team.

Recently, Felipe Martins has "knocked on the door" of many teams, not only in Vietnam, but has received head shakes. It can be said that the fact that SLNA is about to give Felipe Martins an official contract is like "sleeping on a mat".
In the current situation (due to the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic), SLNA has to look for foreign players according to the motto "old people, new people", "pick up the duckweed, discard the shrimp". That is, contacting unemployed foreign players in Vietnam, Felipe Martins is one such case.
However, Felipe Martins is still rated higher than the striker who just left SLNA, Alagie Sosseh. Firstly, Felipe Martins' professional level has been proven in the HAGL shirt. Secondly, the Brazilian player is no stranger to the V.League environment.
It seems that, "because we need each other", the contract between SLNA and Felipe Martins will be completed and announced in the near future./.
