“Our club guideline is to facilitate excellent players to play abroad and experience in a suitable environment. But Hanoi FC needs Van Hau to reach our goals this year, he is just 20”.

We will study them thoroughly that team before letting our player go, whether our players are played or left on the bench. That will be a waste of talent. We got some invitations without no agreements reached so everything is left open, especially when Vietnam is playing in AFC Cup 2018 semi-final leg 2. Van Hau and his teammates should overcome this challenge first”.
