Just a few days before the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) finalized the list of candidates for the 8th Congress, Ho Chi Minh City Club unexpectedly introduced Mr. Nguyen Hoai Nam (General Director of Berjaya Vietnam Group) to the position of VFF Vice President in charge of finance (the position currently held by Mr. Duc in the 7th term).
Currently, the position of VFF Vice President in charge of finance will have a total of 3 candidates, previously Mr. Tran Van Lieng - Chairman of the Board of Directors (BOD) and General Director of Vietnam Cacao Joint Stock Company and Mr. Le Van Thanh (Chairman of the Board of Directors and General Director of Dong Luc Sports Joint Stock Company and President of Vietnam Volleyball Federation).
Mr. Nam is currently a member of the Board of Directors of 2 clubs: KV Kortrijik (top 5 Belgian national championship) and FK Sarajevo (top 3 Bosnia & Herzegovina national championship).
Many experts predict that with this "huge" resume, Mr. Nam will surpass 2 other candidates to win the position of VFF Vice President.
