On the evening of September 28, Coach Phan Nhu Thuat and SLNA said goodbye when LPBank V-League 2025/26 had only passed 5 rounds. In the most recent match, the Nghe An team led CA TP.HCM 2-0 but then lost 2-3. This result made Coach Phan Nhu Thuat very disappointed, and this coach decided to resign.

According to Mr. Thuat, the failure came from two main reasons: The offense wasted too many opportunities and the defense lost confidence after the score was shortened.

Thus, Coach Phan Nhu Thuat is the second coach to resign in V-League this season. Previously, Hanoi FC and Japanese coach Makoto Teguramori parted ways after poor results since the beginning of the season.

It is not yet clear who will replace coach Phan Nhu Thuat. However, over the years, SLNA has often rotated the captain's seat, with familiar faces from the team.

After 5 rounds, SLNA has 1 win, 1 draw and 3 losses. This is an achievement that does not satisfy the leaders and fans. In round 6, SLNA will have a trip to Pleiku to meet HAGL. Facing an opponent of equal strength, this is an opportunity for the Nghe team to win at least 1 point.
