On his personal page, coach Kiatisak posted a series of photos of his meeting with midfielder Chanathip Songkrasin. The Thai national team star gifted his former coach a BG Pathum United jersey. In return, the coach also gave Chanathip a Hanoi Police FC jersey.
Of course, these are just souvenirs exchanged between the two sides. But the photo of Coach Kiatisak giving a jersey to Chanathip still received a lot of interaction from fans. Many people hope that Hanoi Police FC will recruit a star from Thai football.

Previously, Thai media believed that the reigning V.League champions had contacted left-back Theerathon Bunmathan - the captain of the Thai national team. However, Hanoi Police FC already has Doan Van Hau, Ha Van Phuong, and Hoang Van Toan in this position.
If Hanoi Police FC could acquire a quality attacking midfielder like Chanathip Songkrasin, their strength would be significantly improved. The 1994-born star is valued at up to 1 million euros (27 billion VND) with a salary among the highest in Thai League 1. Therefore, to recruit Chanathip, Hanoi Police FC would need to prepare substantial financial resources.
BG Pathum United, Chanathip's current club, is also considered a "big spender" in Thai football. Their foreign players are all incredibly expensive, and their squad includes many Thai national team players.
Rumors suggest that BG Pathum United intends to recruit Nguyen Hoang Duc with a salary of $20,000 per month. This team previously completed a special transfer deal with Dong A Thanh Hoa FC at the beginning of the 2023 season.
BG Pathum United sold striker Paulo Conrado to Thanh Hoa FC after half a season using the Brazilian star. Paulo Conrado made a significant contribution to Thanh Hoa FC's 4th-place finish in the V.League and their National Cup victory. This is a rare direct transfer between a Thai and a Vietnamese club.
