Ho Chi Minh City Club announced reaching an agreement with Coach Park Hang Seo and Lee Yong Jin

Mr. Lee Young Jin has been an assistant to coach Park Hang Seo in recent years, during the time the Korean coach led the Vietnamese team.

Tonight (November 23), this duo was announced to be the ones to lead Ho Chi Minh City Club for the remainder of the 2023-2024 season. Accordingly, Coach Park Hang Seo will hold the role of Technical Director, and Coach Lee Young Jin will be registered as Head Coach of Ho Chi Minh City Club.

The leaders of Ho Chi Minh City Club said that the contracts of Coach Park Hang Seo and Coach Lee Young Jin will be signed soon. Mr. Park Hang Seo and Mr. Lee Young Jin will be in Ho Chi Minh City at the end of this month to receive their new assignments.

The leadership of Ho Chi Minh City Club hopes that the Korean coaching duo will promote their abilities, helping the team achieve good results as desired by the majority of Ho Chi Minh City fans.

This is very surprising information, because just one day before, Ho Chi Minh City Club said they could sign a contract with coach Mano Polking, former coach of the Thai national team.

Coach Park Hang Seo himself had previously expressed his desire to lead the Thai national team. However, after the Thai national team appointed Japanese coach Ishii to replace coach Mano Polking, Mr. Park turned his attention to domestic teams.

Ho Chi Minh City Club also just parted ways with coach Vu Tien Thanh not long ago, after only the first 3 rounds of V-League 2023-2024.

However, according to information from Coach Park Hang Seo's representative, they have not agreed to the proposal from Ho Chi Minh City Club. It is likely that by tomorrow (November 24), information surrounding the head coach position of Ho Chi Minh City Club will have new details.

While waiting to finalize the contract with Coach Park Hang Seo and Coach Lee Young Jin, Ho Chi Minh City Club appointed Coach Phung Thanh Phuong to lead the team in the National Cup qualifying round against Binh Duong and possibly the 4th round of V-League, in case the team does not have a new head coach.
