Midfielder Song Lam Nghe An joins Hong Linh Ha Tinh

Le Manh Dung is a player who is playing for Hai Phong Club on loan from Song Lam Nghe An Club in the second leg of V.League 2019. The inability to compete for a position with other teammates is the reason why the 25-year-old midfielder often has to be on the bench of SLNA and SLNA's Board of Directors has decided to create conditions for this player to come to Hai Phong with more opportunities to play.

After the departure of two veterans Dinh Bao and Quoc Trung, at the port city team, Manh Dung was given the opportunity to play and has affirmed his role in the midfield. The 25-year-old player from Nghe An has played 9 matches and made 2 assists leading to goals.

Manh Dung is among the players whose contracts with SLNA will expire after the end of V.League 2019. After what he has shown, it was thought that Hai Phong Club would sign an official contract with Manh Dung to prepare for next season. However, the midfielder from Nghe An has confided that he wants to move closer to home to take care of his father who is struggling with a serious illness.

And Hong Linh Ha Tinh has made an offer that fully meets the wishes of the former SLNA player. According to the chairman of Hong Linh Ha Tinh Club, Manh Dung will play for this team with a 3-year contract from the 2020 season. Notably, Manh Dung, along with Phan Van Duc and Pham Xuan Manh, were once students of coach Pham Minh Duc during their loan period at the People's Public Security Club. This is also the first contract of the team that has just won the First Division championship and won the right to be promoted to V.League.

To prepare for the new season, Hong Linh Ha Tinh is actively targeting names with expertise and Nghe An blood to change the force with the desire to become a team with its own identity./.
