To prepare for the 2025-2026 season, The Cong - Viettel Club urgently recruited striker Lucao do Break (Lucas Vinicius) and announced this new player on the afternoon of June 24, just 2 days before the 2024-2025 National Cup semi-final match with Cong An Hanoi Club.

However, Lucao cannot play immediately and must wait until the player registration and transfer portal opens before the new season. Lucao's previous contract with Hai Phong (for 2 seasons) has ended and this player has been approached by The Cong - Viettel for negotiations in the past few months.

Sharing on the day of signing the contract with the army team, Lucao said: "I am very honored to wear the shirt of a club with a rich tradition like The Cong - Viettel. This is a team with a strong fighting spirit, a thirst for victory and always receives enthusiastic support from fans. I came here to dedicate myself, score goals and most importantly, conquer titles with the whole team."

Lucao do Break was born in 1991 in Brazil, 1m84 tall, has good pressing ability thanks to his outstanding physique and strength. He also has the ability to finish with both feet and head, maintaining a stable scoring form through previous seasons playing for Hanoi and Da Nang.

Lucao's peak was last season, when he scored 14 goals for Hai Phong, contributing nearly half of the goals of the port city team. Lucao is also one of the 3 players with the most goals and shares the title of V-League 2024 - 2025 Top Scorer with Alan Alexandre and Nguyen Tien Linh.

The recruitment of Lucao not only means increasing strength but also demonstrates the determination of The Cong - Viettel for the new season. The army team is gradually perfecting the squad to realize the goal of conquering the top, building a strong, disciplined and dedicated playing style.

Head coach of The Cong - Viettel Club Velizar Popov shared: "We need a striker who can take advantage of opportunities, put pressure on the opponent's defense and has experience in the V-League. Lucao fully meets those factors.

Not only does he have the ability to score goals, he also plays well as a team player, knows how to coordinate and has good tactical thinking. I believe Lucao will help The Cong - Viettel solve the finishing problem for the club and open up many new attacking options."
