After a long absence from the Vietnamese national team, Cong Phuong was named by the Korean strategist in the FIFA Days in June 2025.

Cong Phuong's return also shows that coach Kim Sang Sik is ready to create opportunities for experienced players, if they show their desire and suitability for the new tactical philosophy.

Another name worth waiting for is Pendant Quang Vinh, who was given the opportunity by coach Kim Sang Sik to wear the "Golden Star Warriors" shirt for the first time.

In addition, goalkeeper Nguyen Filip was also called back to the Vietnam national team, after his excellent performance in the CAHN jersey at the recent Southeast Asian Club Cup.

This list also includes many familiar faces such as Quang Hai, Hoang Duc, Tien Linh, Tuan Hai, Duy Manh, Viet Anh, Hai Long...

In this training session, the Vietnamese team will have an important match with Malaysia (June 10), away from home, which will be decisive in winning a ticket to the 2027 Asian Cup Finals.
