Although Filip Nguyen did not have a successful debut match for Hanoi Police Club, Siam Sport still highly appreciated the goalkeeper of Vietnamese origin. In an article published yesterday (July 3), this newspaper praised Filip Nguyen's talent.
Thailand's leading sports newspaper commented: "Filip Nguyen is 1m92 tall and has a larger-than-average appearance. This player has many years of professional playing in the Czech Republic.
The goalkeeper born in 1992 debuted at Sparta Prague Club in 2013, but here, he could not compete for the position with Tomas Vaclik, who is currently the number one goalkeeper of the Czech Republic team.
After moving to Vlasim Club, Filip Nguyen immediately showed his talent and became a mainstay before being recruited by Slovan Liberec Club.
He played exceptionally well for Slovan Liberec, especially in the 2020-2021 season when he only conceded 32 goals, the second fewest in the tournament.
Excellent saves helped Slovan Liberec catch the eye of the Czech Republic coach. The goalkeeper was called up to the Czech Republic team in 2020 but has yet to play for the team.
Filip Nguyen received attention from many clubs and decided to move to Slovacko Club. Here, fans witnessed a more wonderful image of the goalkeeper born in 1992. In just his first season (2021-2022), he had 8 clean sheets and was in the top 4 goalkeepers with the fewest goals conceded in the tournament.
Not stopping there, in his second season with Slovacko, Filip Nguyen rose to become the best goalkeeper in the Czech Republic championship, keeping a clean sheet in 11 matches.
Besides the compliments, Siam Sport is also wary of Filip Nguyen. This newspaper predicts that the 31-year-old goalkeeper can replace Dang Van Lam to become the number one goalkeeper of the Vietnamese team in the near future.
Siam Sport added: "Filip Nguyen's decision to return to Vietnam to play will likely impact Dang Van Lam's position. This is a goalkeeper with qualifications and has been trained in high-level tournaments. He can quickly become the number one goalkeeper of the Vietnamese team.
Filip Nguyen's playing style is superior to Dang Van Lam's. Despite being 1m92 tall, Filip Nguyen is extremely agile, has good reflexes, plays well with his feet and especially has the ability to shine at important moments.
The appearance of Filip Nguyen will help reduce the burden on the defenders of the Vietnam team. If this goalkeeper joins the Vietnam team, this team will be very formidable.
Filip Nguyen will join the group of excellent goalkeepers in Southeast Asia. Previously, the region also had a number of good goalkeepers who played in Europe such as Neil Etheridge, Michael Falkesgard (Philippines), Kawin Thamsatchanan (Thailand)".
