SLNA - Missing Phi Son with his emotional departure

Last season, after more than 10 years with the SLNA training center, Phi Son officially left the Nghe An team to find a new destination. The player born in 1992 said it was the most difficult decision in his football career. He chose a very professional and respectful way of behaving.

Standard behavior

In fact, a few months ago, Phi Son had already chosen the next destination of his football career. Although the official information was not announced until the end of the season, the coaching staff and colleagues all understood Phi Son's every move. But what the Nghe An audience appreciated the most was the dedicated attitude of the number 10 player until the last minute.

On the Vietnamese football field, there are many cases where players, both foreign and domestic, "save their feet" at the end of the season, playing without passion to avoid injury. However, Phi Son is the opposite, he always plays like a real warrior and does not hide his ambition to lift the national cup high to show gratitude to the team and the audience.

In the semi-final match at Tam Ky Stadium, although knowing for sure that SLNA had reached the final of the 2017 National Cup, Phi Son still tried to work hard to score another goal for himself. Seeing him cry with regret when he missed the ball in the Quang Nam team's goal at the end of the match, many Nghe An spectators were moved in their hearts.

Being one of the few SLNA players using Facebook, Phi Son wants to use this "channel" to connect more with the audience. He knows how to choose the right time to say goodbye, not too early to make the audience worry, not too late to fade the feelings.

"Time passed so quietly, Phi Son made his decision to leave SLNA. Son apologized because he thought it was time to find another environment for himself, to develop more in all aspects. With the most sincere gratitude, Son would like to bow before all the Nghe fans, you have given Son a wonderful time" - midfielder Tran Phi Son once shared.

For the sake of making a living and developing his career, Phi Son chose Ho Chi Minh City as his next team. "Whether he is at Song Lam Nghe An or any other team, I hope you will always be by my side, pushing me forward. I apologize for not being able to accompany the team in the new season. I hope you will sympathize with me" - the player from Ha Tinh sent an apology to his teammates.

Choose a way to say goodbye

This year, SLNA is facing new difficulties. A series of players whose contracts with the Nghe An team have expired are players from the 1993 generation including: Que Ngoc Hai, Ho Sy Sam, Cao Xuan Thang, Nguyen Sy Nam, Ngo Xuan Toan, Pham Manh Hung, Le Quang Dai. In addition, goalkeeper Tran Nguyen Manh, center back Pham The Nhat, midfielder Hoang Van Binh and two foreign players Olaha and Jermie also have contracts expiring at the end of this season.

Many of the 12 names will make SLNA have to scramble to find money to renew their contracts and certainly half of them will leave. It is known that many players have already decided on their destination for next season, everything is just waiting for time. Nghe An fans always respect the decisions of the players, especially the departure is better for their short-lived football career.

V-League 2018 has only 3 rounds left and indeed the chance of winning a medal for the Nghe An team is not much, the main thing is how to behave in the final days.

The problem now is that everyone wants to see the SLNA spirit in the remaining 3 matches. Each player will choose for themselves a different way to say goodbye to the audience. But what Nghe An fans want is that before leaving, the SLNA players leave a beautiful image on Vinh stadium and in the hearts of the fans with their dedicated playing attitude./.
