Will Chung Nguyen Do's deal to V.League come true?
Up to now, the story of a Vietnamese club approaching talented overseas Vietnamese midfielder Chung Nguyen Do is true. But the two sides are still in the negotiation process.

The transfer market before V.League 2025/26 only really "heated up" after the news that Chung Nguyen Do was contacted by a Vietnamese club. The midfielder whose Vietnamese name is Do Nguyen Thanh Chung is a promising talent of European football. More than a year ago, when he had not yet played for the first team of Slavia Sofia (Bulgaria), this player was noticed by the powerful Barcelona.
The seriousness of this deal is shown through the sharing of Mr. Ventseslav Stefanov - President of Slavia Sofia Club. On Tema Sport, the head of the club firmly affirmed: "We sell Chung Nguyen Do". According to Transfermarkt, Chung Nguyen Do's value is 400,000 euros, which is more than 12 billion VND.
The next negotiation process is to directly discuss with Chung Nguyen Do, including him, his representative company and relatives. Convincing an overseas Vietnamese player to return home is never easy. They are used to life abroad, the language and the playing environment here.
U23 Indonesia 'worried' before the final with U23 Vietnam: Top scorer has problems
Less than three days before the final match of the 2025 Southeast Asian U23 Championship against U23 Vietnam (8:00 p.m. on July 29), U23 Indonesia is in a state of "restlessness" with a series of concerns about personnel, especially the case of striker Jens Raven - the tournament's top scorer.

According to Indonesian media, Jens Raven fell into a state of exhaustion after the 120-minute semi-final match against Thailand U23. In that match, the Bali United striker scored the equalizer in the 83rd minute and successfully took the decisive penalty kick, sending Indonesia to the final. Currently, he has not been able to return to training.
Not stopping there, the two mainstay midfielders Arkhan Fikri and Toni Firmansyah also showed signs of physical overload. Arkhan Fikri is the soul of the midfield of U23 Indonesia with the ability to coordinate smoothly, hold the ball skillfully and launch effective attacks. Meanwhile, Firmansyah is a mobile midfielder, playing the role of a link between defense and attack. The understanding between this duo contributed to creating a balanced and flexible game for Indonesia since the beginning of the tournament.
If all three names above cannot play, the tactical problem for coach Vanenburg will become more difficult than ever.
Liverpool agree to sell Luis Diaz to Bayern Munich
Liverpool have accepted a £65.5m bid from Bayern Munich for Luis Diaz.
Luis Diaz is currently in Asia with Liverpool on their pre-season tour. However, he was left out of the squad for the recent friendly against AC Milan.

Liverpool have allowed Luis Diaz to leave the club, after reaching a £65.5m (€75m) deal with Bayern Munich.
Previously, the Premier League champions twice failed in their attempts to convince Luis Diaz to sign a new contract.
The sale of the 28-year-old striker, along with the possibility of Darwin Nunez leaving in the near future, will help Liverpool raise funds to continue spending heavily.
National U21 Finals 2025: Four penalty shootouts, HAGL and SLNA eliminated
The four quarter-final matches of the 2025 National U21 Football Tournament on the afternoon of July 27 all had the same scenario: no winner in regular time, forced to decide the winner by a nerve-wracking penalty shootout.

It is worth mentioning that 2/4 of the names that had to say goodbye to the tournament after the lucky penalty shootout were all famous youth "training centers" such as SLNA and HAGL; SHB.Da Nang, although defeated, was not too surprising for a team that regularly won the championship like Hanoi FC, while PVF-CAND only used the U19 youth team, so the defeat against The Cong Viettel was not regrettable.
