Refusing the V-League "galaxy", Vietnam's number 1 striker makes a surprising decision

According to some sources, striker Nguyen Tien Linh has extended his contract for another 3 years with Binh Duong Club.

Từ chối “dải ngân hà” V-League, chân sút số 1 tuyển Việt Nam ra quyết định ngỡ ngàng - Ảnh 1. — Tien Linh extended his contract for another 3 years with Binh Duong.

This is a very surprising decision because after the 2023 season, Tien Linh's contract with Binh Duong expired and he has no intention of signing a new one.

He is even said to have reached a personal agreement to join the Hanoi Police Club.

But according to research, Tien Linh wants to stay with the Southern team to be able to play more often.

After successfully retaining the striker from Hai Duong, the team from Thu Dau Mot also immediately terminated the contract with Gordon Rimario, the player who scored 7 goals in the 2023 season.

As for Tien Linh, he just had a difficult season playing for Binh Duong when he only scored 3 goals.

Meanwhile, his team also needed until the final round to successfully stay in the league.

The decline of the striker born in 1997 partly comes from the fact that he had to play out of position in the 2023 season.

The appearance of Gordon Rimario forced the number one striker of the Vietnamese team to retreat to play as an attacking midfielder instead of a center forward.

While Tien Linh's football skills are not suitable for that role.

Returning to Binh Duong Club, after the unsuccessful 2023 season, they are changing their squad by saying goodbye to many players who have little contribution to the team.

At the same time, the Go Dau home team also brought in 3 new quality players: Janclesio, Que Ngoc Hai and Nguyen Hai Huy.

With the current additions, Binh Duong is considered fully capable of competing for a high position in the rankings for the 2023-2024 season.
