Winning consecutive national championships, Ho Chi Minh City women's club is at risk of losing stars due to lack of money

Nỗi lo mất quân ập đến ngay sau chức vô địch thứ 8/9 mùa của thầy trò HLV Kim Chi — The fear of losing troops came right after the 8th championship in 9 seasons of coach Kim Chi and his team.

On December 28, Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club won a resounding 5-0 victory over Son La Club, thereby winning the national women's football championship for the 5th consecutive time, an achievement considered a miracle for Vietnamese women's football.

It is even more impressive to know that this is the 8th championship in 9 seasons that coach Doan Thi Kim Chi has led the Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club, not to mention the runner-up position in 2018 (after the collision between Ho Chi Minh City Club players and Vietnam Minerals).

But perhaps coach Kim Chi does not dare to be too happy about the above records, because right after the coronation ceremony, the Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club faces the risk of losing nearly a dozen key players who are members of the Vietnam national team.

It is known that there are up to 9 names whose contracts with the Ho Chi Minh City women's team will expire after December 31, 2023, including a series of national players such as Bich Thuy, Kim Thanh, Thuy Trang, Chuong Thi Kieu, Tran Thi Thu, Thu Thao...

The leader of the Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club said that there are currently some Northern football teams following closely with attractive offers, while the previous sponsorship package that the leader of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Culture and Sports brought in to retain key players has expired.

In 2023, Ho Chi Minh City Women's Club successfully retained key players and invested in women's youth football thanks to sponsorship packages with a total value of about 8 billion VND, with 3 units contributing.

The leader of the Department of Culture and Sports of Ho Chi Minh City said that he is trying to mobilize some businesses to join hands to support, to avoid the situation of having no players to play next year, especially after the football team "felt sorry" for losing the 1 billion VND championship bonus from 2022 due to... the mechanism!

It is expected that in early 2024, the leaders of the Department of Culture and Sports of Ho Chi Minh City will have a meeting with the female players of the Ho Chi Minh City women's team to listen to their concerns and find a solution to extend the contract. Certainly, to retain the stars of the Vietnamese team, the Ho Chi Minh City team will need a new sponsorship package of at least 8 - 10 billion VND.
