Xuan Manh writes farewell letter to Song Lam Nghe An to join Hanoi Club

After nearly 15 years with the Nghe An team, at the end of the 2023 season, Xuan Manh officially said goodbye to Song Lam Nghe An. To express his gratitude to his hometown team, on his personal Facebook page, Xuan Manh wrote a letter sharing his feelings with the place that nurtured him to become a star of Vietnamese football.

The article by the former Vietnamese player has some emotional passages: "Song Lam Nghe An is Manh's youth, his youth, his dream. Wearing the Song Lam Nghe An shirt is a source of pride and honor for Manh and his family. The place that nurtured and educated Manh not only to become a good player, but also to become a moral person. The decision to leave Song Lam Nghe An is a very difficult one at this time.

Manh thanks all the fans who have always been by his side and supported him and the team in any circumstances. Manh will always remember the love that the fans have given him.

No matter which team I play for, Song Lam Nghe An will always be a part of Manh's heart" - Xuan Manh shared on his personal Facebook page.

Xuan Manh was discovered by Song Lam Nghe An from the Youth - Children's Football Tournament of Nghe An Newspaper Cup. After training at the Nghe An youth football training center, Xuan Manh has always been a player who left many outstanding impressions. 2018 marked a brilliant milestone in the professional football career of the player from Yen Thanh when he and U23 Vietnam won the runner-up position at the U23 Asian Championship.

At the club level, Xuan Manh is a player who has made great contributions to Song Lam Nghe An's playing style. In particular, with skillful techniques and good physical strength, the player born in 1997 can play well in many positions on the field. In the 2022 season, after Ojong Mark was injured, Xuan Manh was arranged by the Song Lam Nghe An coaching staff to play in the role of anchor midfielder. In this position, Xuan Manh has made a strong impression and is an irreplaceable player in the Vinh team's squad. In the 2023 season, Xuan Manh played 17 times, being the player with the most playing time for Song Lam Nghe An in V.League 2023.

Without the service of the midfielder from Yen Thanh, it will be a big loss for Song Lam Nghe An. However, in the Nghe An team, there are still Trong Hoang and Dinh Chau, ready to fill the void left by Xuan Manh. Especially, at the youth team level, players like Ngo Van Bac and Phan Ba ​​Quyen are also players who are playing impressively in this position.

After leaving Song Lam Nghe An, Xuan Manh will join Hanoi Club. Playing for the reigning champion will give the midfielder born in 1997 many opportunities to achieve many achievements in his career. And that is also a favorable condition for Xuan Manh to be called up to the National team./.
