With Van Hau, Hanoi FC does not need foreign soldiers in the defense

The contract between Doan Van Hau and Heerenveen was due on June 30. The move is still unclear, when SC Heerenveen chose to remain silent during the past time.

It was not until early July that the Dutch team had a letter to Hanoi FC to exchange information about Van Hau. What they are most interested in is the financial issue, Heerenveen wants to know how Hanoi FC will provide financial support if they renew with Thai Binh players.

It is clear that 450,000 Euro / season salary is a major barrier affecting Heerenveen's decision. Surely they will not renew with him without funding, or the financial support of Hanoi FC is not large enough. Although Hanoi FC really wants to let Van Hau continue training and trying in Europe, it was probably time for Hanoi FC to call his players back.

More than ever, the Capital team is in dire need of Doan Van Hau at the moment. A statistic that shows the importance of a player is that Hanoi FC was unbeaten on Hang Day Stadium when Doan Van Hau was in the squad. It is easy to see the great difficulties of Hanoi FC in recent matches, when they do not have a foreigner in the defense line like other teams.

As a result, Hanoi FC faces a lot of disadvantages in contested situations in the home side. The opponent's crosses often put Hnaoi’s net in danger. They do not have a player who is tall and good enough to tackle the goal when needed. All 3 foreigners are on the offensive. In addition, Duy Manh and Dinh Trong's injuries have made Hanoi more miserable.

Van Hau's return is no different than that of Hanoi FC having a quality foreign soldier in the defense. After the days of training in the Netherlands, Van Hau's body is not inferior to any player and ready to hand-fight with all foreign soldiers in the V-League. Van Hau can completely help coach Chu Dinh Nghiem forget the laxness of the defense in the absence of duo Dinh Trong and Duy Manh.
