Favorite player injured, will coach Park call up Bau Duc's troops? Ronaldo agrees to join Man City

Coach Park Hang-seo will call Mr. Duc's "homegrown" player because his favorite player is injured?

Center back Bui Tien Dung suffered a serious injury and will be absent from the match against Saudi Arabia on September 2. Will coach Park Hang-seo call up an additional center back to replace his "favorite player"?

Besides Que Ngoc Hai and Do Duy Manh,Coach Park Hang-seoThere are still other central defenders such as Nguyen Thanh Trung, Tran Dinh Trong, Truong Van Thiet, Bui Hoang Viet Anh. However, Thanh Chung and Dinh Trong are having different problems with their legs. Meanwhile, the remaining 2 central defenders do not have much experience playing for the national team.

It must also be said that recently, coach Park Hang-seo has called up 4 additional players including defender Van Kien, midfielder Trong Dai, striker Dinh Kha, Xuan Nam to the national team. This is considered a backup plan for injured players like Minh Vuong, Van Hau or the absence of Cong Phuong in this training session.

Possible candidates are Huu Tuan (HAGL)?

A question arises: Will coach Park Hang-seo call up an additional central defender to replace Bui Tien Dung? And who could be the targeted candidate? As mentioned above, the Korean coach has considered alternative solutions. This time, it is very likely that the Vietnam national team will also add a central defender as a backup.

The candidates could be Huu Tuan (HAGL) or Thanh Hao (Binh Dinh)... who were called up to the national team last time. However, it is likely that coach Park Hang-seo will only call up this player when the Vietnam team returns after the match with Saudi Arabia, because the preparation time for the first round is near. Or suppose that they are called up now, it will be difficult for the players to quickly gather because traveling during the epidemic season is very difficult. Moreover, the "new soldiers" will also find it difficult to keep up with the training intensity of the national team.

Tuchel wins the 2020/21 European Coach of the Year award

Coach Thomas Tuchel has surpassed Roberto Mancini and Pep Guardiola to be named the best coach in Europe for the 2020/21 season.

According to UEFA's announcement, Tuchel received a total of 378 points, while Mancini - the head coach of the Italian team - had 292 points, and Guardiola had 198 points. These numbers show that the German strategist is superior to the other two strong candidates, and the award given to him is completely worthy.

In the 2020/21 season, Tuchel helped Chelsea have a spectacular transformation. He replaced Frank Lampard to lead The Blues from January 2021, when the team was exhausted and lacked vitality after a series of disappointing results. However, with his strategic talent, Tuchel has incredibly revived Chelsea, turning this club into a team that is difficult to beat.

Under Tuchel, Chelsea defeated Atletico Madrid, Porto, Real Madrid and finally Man City in the final to win the 2020/21 Champions League in a way that few people dared to think of before. In the Premier League, Tuchel also helped The Blues finish in the Top 4 after Man City, Man United and Liverpool.

Before the 2021/22 season, Tuchel also won the European Super Cup with Chelsea after defeating Villarreal in a nerve-wracking penalty shootout (1-1 draw after 120 minutes of intense play). Thus, with Tuchel, Chelsea rose from the ruins to become the king of European football in just half a year.

Ronaldo agrees to join Man City

According to news from Portugal and Spain,Cristiano Ronaldohas agreed personal terms to join Man City.

Cristiano Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes flew to Turin yesterday (August 26) to help his client negotiate a move away from Juventus and according to the latest information from AS and the Portuguese press, Ronaldo is now preparing to join Man City.

Ronaldo is believed to have agreed personal terms with Man City before the summer transfer window closed in 2021. Man City offered Ronaldo a two-year contract worth £230,000 a week. Ronaldo currently earns more than £500,000 a week at the Allianz Stadium and has just 12 months left on his Juventus contract.

Man City had prioritised the signing of Tottenham striker Harry Kane this summer but chairman Daniel Levy's £150m asking price put the Premier League champions on the back foot. Man City offered Tottenham £75m plus £25m in add-ons but the Tottenham chairman rejected the offer. In the end, Kane chose to stay at Tottenham.

For Man United fans, they will have to prepare to see Ronaldo dominating the shirt of the city rival team. It is still unclear how much Man City will have to pay to get Ronaldo. There is information that Man City offered to include Sterling in this transfer but Juventus wanted Gabriel Jesus.

Juventus want €25m (over £21m) for Ronaldo to leave to balance their finances. Therefore, they want to negotiate a swap (plus a sum of money) with Man City in the Ronaldo deal. Man City need to keep Jesus as a backup for Ronaldo, and selling Sterling will help them reduce a significant amount of salary as well as collect a large transfer fee when owning CR7.

Tuan Hai scored a double, Mr. Park is confident that he will have someone to replace Cong Phuong.

Rookie striker Tuan Hai, who is expected to replace Cong Phuong, scored a double to help the Vietnam national team win big against U22 Vietnam.

Before finalizing the list of players to go to Saudi Arabia, the Vietnam national team had 2 internal practice matches with U22 Vietnam. In the first match, the Vietnam national team won 2-0 against U22 Vietnam. Midfielder Luong Xuan Truong continued to score for the Vietnam national team. The remaining goal was scored by rookie Xuan Nam.

In the second match in the late slot,Vietnam National Teamcontinued to have a big 4-0 victory over U22 Vietnam. 4 goals of the Vietnam National Team were scored by Tuan Hai (2 goals), Hoang Duc and Van Duc.

The most impressive player on the Vietnamese team's side in the second practice match was Tuan Hai. The new player of HL Ha Tinh continued to leave his mark with a brilliant performance with a double against his juniors. In the practice match on August 19, Tuan Hai also scored 1 goal. Thus, after only 2 internal practice matches, the striker born in 1998 has scored 3 goals.

Tuan Hai's continuous scoring and impressive performance is good news for coach Park Hang-seo. The Korean strategist can rest assured in the context of Cong Phuong's absence in the first two matches of the final qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup.

After this match, Coach Park Hang-seo will finalize the list of 25 players to go to Saudi Arabia. According to the schedule, on the evening of August 27, the whole team will move to the airport to travel to West Asia. Coach Park Hang-seo and his team will have to transit in Qatar before connecting to the next flight to Saudi Arabia.
