(Baonghean.vn) - Before the new season, the Nghe An team has made major changes in terms of personnel. A series of young faces in different positions and positions will be the premise to help SLNA change its appearance.
On the coaching bench is the appearance of the duo Coach Ngo Quang Truong - Assistant Phan Nhu Thuat, replacing the two predecessors Coach Nguyen Duc Thang and Assistant Nguyen Van Thinh. While Mr. Thang holds the new role of Technical Director, Mr. Thinh returns to youth training.
Thus, SLNA's current coaching staff is head coach Ngo Quang Truong, assistant Nguyen Huy Hoang and assistant Phan Nhu Thuat, who was just appointed.
SLNA's leadership and Nghe An football fans are hoping that with this change, the Vinh team will show a new face, more energetic than in past seasons. The important task of head coach Ngo Quang Truong and his colleagues is not only to help SLNA achieve positive results in the 2020 season, but also to build for the home team a beautiful and equally effective playing style.

“Without flour, you can make paste”, to achieve the above goals, the SLNA Coaching Board must possess a team of quality, deep players. At this time, after the departure of Tran Nguyen Manh, Ho Khac Ngoc, Tran Dinh Hoang, Vo Ngoc Toan… the Nghe An team still has many outstanding faces spread across all lines. Typically, Nguyen Van Hoang, Hoang Van Khanh, Phan Van Duc, Pham Xuan Manh, Ho Tuan Tai…
Recently, the Vinh team has been actively promoting young players for trials. Most likely, the names that have proven their abilities last season in the colors of many different teams such as Thai Ba Sang, Mai Sy Hoang, Bui Dinh Chau, Tran Dinh Tien, Tran Tien Anh... will be registered in the list of participants in the 2020 season of the Nghe team. Their presence will help SLNA become one of the teams with the youngest average age in the V.League next year.

SLNA's 2020 season has many similarities with SLNA's 2008 season, the season that witnessed the departure of goalkeeper Duong Hong Son, central defender Cao Xuan Thang or central midfielder Nguyen Van Vinh to make room for Nguyen Dinh Hiep, Nguyen Hong Viet, Hoang Van Binh... At the end of that season, coach Nguyen Van Thinh and his team finished in 9th place in the V.League arena, with quite an attractive playing style.
After more than a decade, the Nghe An team is facing a similar situation. The most noticeable thing is the newness in the staff after the changes and internal transfers.
