In addition, three familiar faces to Nghe An fans, Pham Bui Minh, Phan Nhu Thuat and Pham Van Quyen, were appointed as assistant coaches.
Before being officially appointed as head coach, Nguyen Huy Hoang had a short time as interim coach after coach Ngo Quang Truong resigned in early May.
Huy Hoang is also a symbol of loyalty at SLNA. As a player and as a coach, Huy Hoang has left his mark. In particular, the “steel” center back is a rare case to be involved in the coaching staff while still a player. At this time, Huy Hoang is the person who understands and grasps the team’s situation the most.

Of the three assistants, apart from Phan Nhu Thuat who kept his position, the other two were promoted from the youth team. Before being appointed as assistant head coach, Pham Bui Minh was the head coach of the SLNA U19 team, while Pham Van Quyen also spent many years as an assistant head coach for the youth teams.
