Doan Van Hau will not be able to return to the Vietnamese team to play Indonesia.

According to VTC News, defender Doan Van Hau will continue to receive treatment for his injury in March 2024. A few days ago, the player born in 1999 took a flight to Singapore for a re-examination and evaluation of his recovery process over the past time.

In November 2023, Hanoi Police Club announced that Doan Van Hau will go to Singapore to completely treat his Achilles tendonitis injury. He is expected to be out of action for 3 to 6 months to fully recover. This means that Doan Van Hau will be absent for most of the 2023/2024 season.

Doan Van Hau has not recovered from injury.

If he recovers well and passes the physical tests, Van Hau can only play in the final stage of the V.League. In the immediate future, he will definitely be absent from the Vietnam national team's training session to prepare for the two matches against the Indonesian team in March.

Coach Troussier is in dire need of a player with good skills like Doan Van Hau. Compared to 1-2 years ago, the strength of the Indonesian team has improved significantly. Coach Shin Tae-yong has added 10-12 quality naturalized players. Sandy Walsh, Jordi Amat, Justin Hubner, Rafael Struick, Ivar Jenner are all quality names. This coach has excellent young players like Ernando Ari, Witan Sulaeman or Marsenlino Ferdinan.

In the most recent confrontation at the 2023 Asian Cup, the Vietnamese team faced many difficulties against the Indonesian team. Coach Troussier and his team had to accept defeat with a score of 0-1.

In the immediate future, Coach Troussier will have to continue to put his trust in Vo Minh Trong, Trieu Viet Hung, Phan Tuan Tai or Le Ngoc Bao in the next 2 matches. He is still uncertain about the services of Que Ngoc Hai and Dang Van Lam - two players who were injured after round 9 of V.League.

The two matches against Indonesia in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers are crucial to Troussier's future. If he fails to win at least one match, he risks being fired.
