However, later, Song Lam Nghe An Club sent a proposal to the Vietnam Football Federation asking to keep the above 3 players to carry out the club's upcoming tasks.

As reported by Nghe An Newspaper, on March 10, the Vietnam Football Federation sent a dispatch to Song Lam Nghe An Club requesting that the club create conditions for 3 players who had just joined the Vietnam U20 Team to compete in the U20 Asian Cup to join the Vietnam U22 Team.

Specifically, 3 Song Lam Nghe An players were called up: Ho Van Cuong, Dinh Xuan Tien and Cao Van Binh.

However, later, the Club sideLam River Nghe Ansent a request to keep the above 3 players to perform important tasks in the coming time at the club.

Mr. Nguyen Dinh Nghia - Deputy General Director of Song Lam Nghe An Club, Director of Song Lam Nghe An Youth Football Training Center stated the reason: "These players are playing important roles in Song Lam Nghe An's football teams. Specifically, U19 Song Lam Nghe An will soon participate in the 2023 National U19. Cao Van Binh is one of 3 goalkeepers who will participate in this tournament for U19 Song Lam Nghe An. With his current form, the U20 Vietnam goalkeeper will play an important role in the U19 Song Lam Nghe An squad. We have sent a proposal to VFF, asking to keep him to serve U19 Song Lam Nghe An. Song Lam Nghe An hopes to have a harmony of interests between the club and the U22 Vietnam Team. In addition, Ho Van Cuong and Dinh Xuan Tien are 2 factors that also need to be retained to serve the training plan of the first team" - Mr. Nghia said.

At this time, Song Lam Nghe An's first team has 3 players on duty with the Vietnamese national teams. In addition, 3 other players are also recovering from injuries and are not in good shape to practice with the team. Therefore, recently, the Song Lam Nghe An Coaching Board has mainly let the players practice to maintain their physical strength and ball feel. Coach Huy Hoang does not have enough personnel to practice tactics. Therefore, Song Lam Nghe An wants to keep 2 players Ho Van Cuong and Dinh Xuan Tien to be able to implement training programs, in preparation for the upcoming difficult period in V.League 2023.

After the first 4 rounds of this season, the Nghe An team did not achieve the expected results. Therefore, this is an important break for coach Huy Hoang to refresh the playing style for Song Lam Nghe An, with the hope that the Vinh team will return stronger when V.League 2023 continues in early April.

In preparation for the 32nd SEA Games, U22 Vietnam will participate in the Doha Cup friendly tournament taking place from March 22 to 28 with the participation of 8 teams including: U23 Vietnam, U23 Korea, U23 Thailand, U23 Uzbekistan, U23 Iraq, U23 Jordan, U23 UAE and U23 Qatar. Similar to the rules of the Dubai Cup 2022, this year each team will play a total of 3 matches to be ranked from 1-8./.
