Coach Kim Sang Sik's representative wants to bring Nguyen Xuan Son to Korea.

Lee Dong Jun is the representative of two coaches Kim Sang Sik and Park Hang Seo. Therefore, he is very interested in the Vietnamese football market. Yesterday, this representative confirmed that he wanted to bring Xuan Son to Korea when he saw that the player had the potential to succeed in the Korean national championship (K-League).

"The Vietnamese player I want to bring to K-League is Xuan Son," Mr. Lee Dong Jun revealed. He further commented on Xuan Son's talent: "This player has proven himself to have outstanding physical strength and is very strong in collisions. I think he has enough qualities to play in K-League."

At this time, Xuan Son is recovering from a serious injury in the second leg of the AFF Cup 2024 final. It is likely that the striker of Nam Dinh Club will take more than half a year to return to the field.

Recently, Xuan Son admitted that he wanted to stay with Nam Dinh Club for the rest of his life. He shared: "Nam Dinh Club and the fans have supported me a lot. I want to thank Mr. Thien, whom I always affectionately call Papa Thien. He has supported me a lot during this difficult period. Therefore, I have made the choice to stay with Nam Dinh Club for the rest of my career."

The striker hopes to recover from his injury soon so he can contribute to Nam Dinh Club and the Vietnam national team: "At the moment, I am completely focused on rehabilitation treatment. That is a very important part of the training program. I really want to return to the field soon, with my best form. That is the most important goal right now.

My story with the Vietnam national team is very different, a bit crazy. I got everything in a short time. I can't believe it because everything happened so fast. I scored many goals and became a champion. Sometimes I can't believe it, but I'm happy about it.

I always try my 200% to contribute to the country and the team. I hope to come back soon, sing the national anthem and score many goals for the Vietnam team."

In the past, many Vietnamese players such as Luong Xuan Truong, Nguyen Cong Phuong or Nguyen Van Toan went to Korea to play. However, they were not successful in the land of Kim Chi.

Mr. Lee Dong Jun explained: "Regarding the players who have come to Korea to play like Van Toan, Cong Phuong, Xuan Truong, do they not have skills? That's not true. They all have good abilities and are capable of competing.

Their problem is the lack of time to adapt. K-League clubs are not ready to welcome Southeast Asian players. Time waits for no one. This is a professional environment. I believe that the experience of playing in Korea is meaningful to them. I believe that in 3 years, a Vietnamese player will be successful in K-League."
