Hanoi FC's new foreign player banned from playing without playing a single match

Denilson Junior received a booking while playing for his former club Avai. He was sent off in the last match against Atletico Goianiense and was "suspended".

Denilson's ban does not only apply to Brazil. The striker will not be able to play in the make-up match between Hanoi FC and Binh Duong FC. Next, Denilson will be absent from the match against Quy Nhon Binh Dinh FC in round 5.

Denilson was suspended for 2 matches even though he hasn't played any match in V.League.

Denilson grew up from the Fluminense youth academy and was promoted to the first team to play in the Brazilian National Championship (Serie A) in 2013. After that, this player moved to Granada in Spain but only played in the B team. In the next stage, he played in Serie A for many teams such as Sao Paulo, Avai or Atletico Mineiro.

Denilson played in the Portuguese league for 3 seasons for Pacos Ferreira, Familicao or Tondela, scoring 12 goals in 3 years. In total, Denilson scored 61 goals in 227 matches. In the 2021/2022 season, Denilson scored 2 goals for Pacos Ferreira in the European Cup C3.

Thus, the last 4 foreign players registered by Hanoi FC in V-League 2023/2024 are Denilson, Joel Tagueu, Marcao and Brandon Wilson. The eliminated players are Herlison Caion, Jevtovic and Damien Le Tallec. The contracts of this group of players all expire in December 2023. Hanoi FC has confirmed that they will part ways with striker Caion.

The beginning of this season was a difficult period for the capital team. They replaced coach Bandovic with assistant Le Duc Tuan. But this former defender only held the position for a short time before coach Dinh The Nam appeared. Mr. Nam took the role of interim manager until Hanoi FC found a suitable replacement.

The former V.League champion has just ended a 5-match losing streak with an impressive victory over Wuhan Three Towns in the Asian Cup 1. If they can win against Binh Duong FC and get a good result in the Asian Cup 1, Hanoi FC will mark their return. The season is still long and the chance to compete for the championship is not over for this team.
