“I don’t know when I can return. I’m just following the instructions of the doctors and physical therapists. I’m trying 100%, even 200% to be able to return soon,” striker Nguyen Xuan Son replied when asked about his injury recovery.

Xuan Son suffered a ligament injury in the second leg of the 2024 ASEAN Cup final and will be out for a long time. His recovery is on track. However, the Brazilian player himself does not know when he will be able to return.

The injury caused Xuan Son to be absent from the Vietnam national team. However, after the 0-4 loss to Malaysia, Nam Dinh 's number 1 striker posted a status with only a few characters mentioning the rematch with the "Golden Tigers" at the end of March next year.

“I posted on Instagram about wanting to take revenge on the Malaysian team. Because I feel regretful, I feel sad. Everyone feels sad. I want to come back stronger to help the national team. Because any football needs that. The 0-4 loss is an unacceptable result, very difficult. But the team also has many quality players. Just keep fighting, try your best on the field. Football is like that - sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. That's part of the game,” Xuan Son shared about his status.

Returning to Nam Dinh’s second consecutive championship, Xuan Son shared: “Different from the first time, this time is very special. I don’t know how to say it, but this is an important thing for Nam Dinh, the players and everyone. I am very happy, not only for myself but also for the club, the coaching staff, the coach, the President and the whole team. I am really proud. I would like to congratulate everyone who has worked very hard and deserves this result.”

He assessed the journey of the team from Thanh Nam as wonderful. Everyone has overcome difficult times together, no one is afraid, no one gives up. The solidarity, the spirit like a family. That is very important to look forward to the next season.

Finally, Xuan Son affirmed that Vietnam is a special country. He wants to dedicate himself to the national team as well as his team for a long time.
