Song Lam Nghe An at risk of parting ways with Van Khanh and Ho Tuan Tai

2020 is the 6th season to playV.Leagueof players born in 1995 such as Hoang Van Khanh, Ho Tuan Tai, Nguyen Phu Nguyen... These players are 25 years old and will be free agents after the season ends.

In addition, the Nghe An team also has to extend the contracts of some other players such as goalkeeper Nguyen Van Hoang, Le Van Hung, Tran Dinh Dong. SLNA's foreign players such as Gustavo Santos, Peter Samuel and Filipe Martins are also in a similar situation.

In the latest developments, SLNA Club leaders have had preliminary talks with 4 SLNA players to discuss contract extensions. However, there are still no binding or commitments to retain the players.

According to the law, players have the right to negotiate and sign a preliminary contract with a new team 6 months before the end of their contract. And according to research, currently SLNA's best players such as Van Khanh and Tuan Tai are in the sights of clubs in the V.League.

Responding to the situation of contract renewal with players,Head coach Ngo Quang Truongsaid: “Regarding this, we have to wait until the end of V.League 2020 to know the results. For now, SLNA must focus on the goal of staying in the league.”

Looking further, even SLNA's most talented players born in 1996 such as Phan Van Duc, Pham Xuan Manh, and Bui Dinh Chau will be 25 years old by the end of 2021 and have the right to leave to find a new destination.

Although the youth training work ofSLNAis still leading the country in human resources and achievements, but the somewhat outdated way of doing football is pushing the Nghe An team into a difficult situation in the professional arena.

For this reason, SLNA's coaching staff had to promote nearly a dozen young players to participate in V.League 2020 and in the future, it is very likely that this generation of players born in 1999 will become the pillars of the Nghe An team.
