Late on July 18, Nam Dinh Steel Club introduced a new contract named Kyle Hudlin. This player was born in 2000, is British, and plays the striker position.
Kyle Hudlin's career peak came in the 2023-2024 season, when he played 9 matches for Huddersfield Town in the English Championship. In the most recent season before joining Nam Dinh Club, Kyle only played in League Two (English Fourth Division), scoring 6 goals in 27 matches for Newport County in this arena.
Kyle Hudlin has the advantage of height, reaching 2.06m. On the world male player height rankings as of 2022, Kyle Hudlin is ranked 6th, 4cm shorter than the world's tallest player, goalkeeper Simon Bloch Jorgensen (Germany).
If only counting strikers, Kyle Hudlin is the 2nd tallest striker in the world, after Paul Miller (2.08m - Scottish).
The recruitment of this striker with a special height advantage clearly shows the tactical intention of Nam Dinh Club before the V-League, AFC Champions League Two (Asian Cup) and ASEAN Club Championship (Southeast Asian Cup) next season.
In fact, in Vietnam, Southeast Asia and Asia, there are not many professional players taller than 2 meters. If Kyle Hudlin can be utilized, the cross and header can be a powerful weapon for Nam Dinh. A tall striker can also effectively support the central defenders in defending set pieces.
Besides Kyle Hudlin, Nam Dinh also announced a successful deal with Njabulo Blom, a South African national team player.
Njabulo Blom was born in 1999 and plays as a midfielder. He is a familiar face in the Major League Soccer - MLS, having played for St. Louis City SC. Njabulo Blom has also been called up and played for the South African national team.
