Clear time for Xuan Son to return to V.League

Xuan Son can return in the first leg of V.League 2025/26.

"In round 11, teams will be allowed to replace and add players. At that time, we will register Xuan Son and he will probably play in that round," coach Vu Hong Viet confirmed the time Xuan Son will return to V.League.

In fact, after about 10 months of treatment and recovery from a ligament injury, the Brazilian striker returned on October 11 when Nam Dinh had a friendly match with the PVF-CAND youth team. Although he was not able to play at 100% fitness, coach Vu Hong Viet gave him a chance in the last 20 minutes of the match to regain his ball control.

Also according to the strategist born in 1979, Xuan Son is currently fully recovered. However, because he has been off the field for quite a long time, this striker needs more time to practice with a fitness coach to regain his stamina. This means that, even though he is registered for the National Cup, Southeast Asian Club Cup or AFC Champions League Two, Xuan Son cannot compete in the best physical condition. Based on the actual situation, it is likely that he will be given the opportunity to enter the field at the time the match is arranged to gradually adapt again.

"Xuan Son has fully recovered, but he still needs more training time to reach his best physical condition. Currently, Xuan Son is actively training with a fitness coach to regain his form and stamina before playing on the field with high frequency."

Xuan Son's return is expected to help Nam Dinh overcome a period of disorientation to return to the V.League championship race. As for the Vietnamese national team, fans expect him to lead the attack, bringing a new breeze, especially in the crucial match against Malaysia in the 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers in March 2026.
