V.League 2023/2024 has passed 7 rounds, but up to 5 coaches have had to leave their hot seats. That is the case of coach Bandovic (Hanoi FC), Vu Tien Thanh (HCMC Club), Tran Tien Dai (CAHN Club), Vo Dinh Tan (Khanh Hoa) and Thach Bao Khanh (Viettel The Cong).
Among those chosen to replace, coach Gong Oh-kyun of CAHN Club received the most attention. Because the Korean military leader once led U23 Vietnam and left his mark with his beautiful attacking style of play.
However, since being appointed to lead CAHN Club, coach Gong Oh-kyun has been facing difficulties. New coach Gong Oh-kyun helped CAHN Club defeat HAGL in the 2023/2024 National Cup qualifying round.
Coach Gong Oh-kyun is having difficulty at CAHN Club.
In 4 matches at the V-League 2023/2024 playground, coach Gong Oh-kyun’s CAHN Club drew 2 and lost 2. CAHN Club is ranked 2nd on the rankings, after 4 rounds under the direction of the authorities. The Korean army has dropped to 8th place with 9 points, 7 points behind the top team.
With the poor performance of CAHN Club, coach Gong Oh-kyun is facing the risk of being fired. According to some sources, the former captain of U23 Vietnam and his colleagues were temporarily suspended from directing in round 8 of V.League 2023/2024.
Currently, Coach Polking is said to be the strongest candidate for the hot seat at CAHN Club, in case the police team bid farewell to Coach Gong Oh-kyun. It is worth mentioning that before CAHN Club signed a contract with coach Gong Oh-kyun, they also pursued coach Polking.
In addition to coach Gong Oh-kyun, two more coaches are facing the risk of being fired: coach Kiatisak of HAGL and coach Nguyen Thanh Cong of Ha Tinh. Both of these teams have not won in V.League 2023/2024 and are sharing the bottom 2 positions in the table.
