Xuan Truong and Cong Phuong return to “rescue” HAGL?
In the context of poor competition, LPBank HAGL Club may have to “rely on” Xuan Truong and Cong Phuong to return to Nui Street on loan in the mid-season transfer period. Cong Phuong is not used at Yokohama FC but has a 3-year contract with this Japanese team. Therefore, many people are advising the Hai Duong striker to return to the V.League to save his career, especially in the context that Yokohama FC has just been relegated. If Mr. Duc offers, perhaps Cong Phuong will not refuse to return to “rescue” HAGL.

Compared to Cong Phuong, Xuan Truong has more acting space in Hai Phong, but does not play the main role. He often has to come on the field from the bench. Coach Chu Dinh Nghiem does not appreciate Xuan Truong’s physical strength and ability to compete. However, if he returns to HAGL and reunites Tuan Anh and Minh Vuong, maybe Xuan Truong will find himself again.

In the book, Tovar’s favorite detail when mentioning Ronaldo is that he once called the trash can “Ferrari”. In fact, it happened when Ronaldo was studying at Sporting Lisbon’s youth team as a child. Roni, as his friends call Ronaldo, spends all his time on football, so he often comes to school late. The punishment for being late to school was to drag a large, heavy trash can. Ronaldo called it “Ferrari” every time he pulled it out of the Jose Alvalade stadium.
