V-League changes fortunes, waiting for Vietnam team... to rise up

After many gloomy and uninspired seasons, V-League 2025/26 had a spectacular transformation in the first round, opening up a bright future for the Vietnamese team.

V-League changes fortunes

The "change of fortune" of V-League comes from an unprecedented wave of strong and deep investment. A series of high-class foreign players have chosen Vietnam as their destination, the most typical of which is the "blockbuster" Percy Tau.

The move of a former Premier League player and current South African international to Nam Dinh FC has given the tournament a real boost.

And not only Percy Tau, before that V-League also witnessed very high-value contracts such as Matheus Felipe with a price of 1 million euros or Willian, Njabulo Blom with a price of 900 thousand euros...

Percy Tau is the latest name to join V-League, making fans excited.

Besides, the appearance of high-quality overseas Vietnamese players such as Chung Nguyen Do ( Ninh Binh FC), Brando Ly... is raising the tournament's status to a new level.

These high-profile contracts are not just a story about image. They immediately skyrocket the value of the clubs, turning the V-League into a bustling transfer market.

More importantly, the technical effectiveness was immediate. The first few matches in round 1 witnessed eye-catching matches, with high speed and superior tactical quality, enough to satisfy the stands at Hang Day, Thien Truong and Thong Nhat stadiums.

Waiting for Vietnam team to fly high

When the V-League flourishes, the Vietnamese team will certainly benefit the most. The relationship between the domestic league and the national team is organic and inseparable.

A low-quality league cannot produce good players consistently, but now things are changing.

The players (especially the young U23 players) when returning to their clubs must work harder, improve their skills, physical strength... to compete fairly with foreign players or excellent overseas Vietnamese players.

The matches in the 2025/26 V-League season are more exciting than ever.

Competing with high-class colleagues like Percy Tau, Matheus Felipe... will help Vietnamese players mature, instead of standing out in recent seasons in the context of not having many good foreign players.

An attractive, professional and combative V-League not only helps the Vietnamese team have abundant human resources, but also helps the tournament create a generation of players who are more courageous and confident when they are teammates or opponents of famous and classy foreign players.

The opportunity of V-League has come and fans have the right to wait for the day when the Vietnamese team can truly "upgrade" and stand on its own two feet instead of relying on the story of naturalization.
