(Dan Tri) - Goalkeeper Bui Tan Truong said that striker Nguyen Cong Phuong will need 2-3 more months to return to competition. This is bad news for coach Kim Sang Sik as well as Vietnamese fans.
"Cong Phuong can recover after a month. But to compete again, Phuong will have to wait another two to three months," goalkeeper Tan Truong revealed.
Binh Phuoc FC just had a 2-1 victory on Long An's field on the evening of February 9. The other team's two goals were scored by Luu Tu Nhan and Cu Nguyen Khanh. After scoring, Binh Phuoc players raised their shirts with the number 70 to pay tribute to Cong Phuong.
Previously, in round 6 of the 2024-2025 National First Division at the end of January, in the match between Binh Phuoc and the bottom team Dong Nai , in the middle of the first half, Cong Phuong did not collide with anyone but signaled to leave the field because of pain.
After this match, Cong Phuong did not appear on the training ground of Binh Phuoc Club. The Southeast team also kept all information about the injury of the player wearing the number 70 shirt confidential.
In the latest image, Cong Phuong attracted attention when he did not wear studded shoes and practiced like his teammates. This also means that the 1995-born striker's injury has not yet recovered.
Cong Phuong's suspension from competition not only makes it difficult for Binh Phuoc in the promotion race, but the former HA Gia Lai striker also misses the opportunity to return to the Vietnamese national team during the training session next March.
Coach Kim Sang Sik plans to announce the list of the Vietnamese team in mid-March to prepare for a friendly match with the Cambodian team (March 19), then meet Laos on March 25.
It is a pity that the Korean strategist could not call Cong Phuong, in the context that the Vietnamese team lost Xuan Son, Van Toan and Ho Tan Tai due to injury. Cong Phuong himself also tried very hard when scoring 6 goals for Binh Phuoc, but the injury forced him to be a spectator for about 2 more months.
