The tournament promises to be an attractive and fierce competition as many teams have invested well in their forces, especially recruiting good foreign players from Europe. Ho Chi Minh City 2 Club has Youp Kuiper from the Netherlands, Ho Chi Minh City 1 Club also has Dutch foreign player Johnny Hoogerland. Racer Johnny Hoogerland, born in 1983, 1.79 m tall, was once the main racer of the Vacansoleil - DCM team, participating in many famous tournaments such as Tour de France, Giro d'Italia, so he is expected to be a formidable factor on the Ho Chi Minh City Television Cup 2025 track in the context that the current yellow jersey racer Petr Rikunov will not participate.
