Hanoi FC representative confirmed that Nguyen Van Quyet will leave the Vietnam national team after the match against India. He had planned it in advance and informed coach Kim Sang-sik. The decision of the striker born in 1991 surprised many fans.
In the post-match press conference, coach Kim Sang-sik said: " Van Quyet shared with me his plan to "retire". Today, he did not play the whole match but I know the fans respect him very much. Van Quyet played well, and I want to thank him for his dedication to the Vietnam team ".
Van Quyet retires from Vietnam national team.
Mr. Kim Sang-sik called Nguyen Van Quyet back to the Vietnam national team to play in a series of friendly matches in October 2024. The Hanoi player continued to show good form with 2 goals in the first 3 rounds of V.League 2024-2025, thereby equaling the record of the domestic player who scored the most goals in the history of the tournament (equal to Le Cong Vinh, 116 goals).
Van Quyet did not play well for the national team. He won the AFF Cup 2018 but rarely played. At the 18th ASIAD, he was an overage player for the Vietnam Olympic team. Van Quyet's role was very prominent when leading the young players.
The last time Van Quyet joined the Vietnam national team was in the November 2023 training session to prepare for the two matches against the Philippines and Iraq in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. The Hanoi FC captain did not make many significant contributions. After that, he was not in the plans of coach Philippe Troussier and the first matches under Mr. Kim Sang-sik.
