On January 6, Beijing time, while Li Lei rushed to the Swiss grasshoppers, Latvian club Riga FC, which participated in this season's Champions League and European Cup, wanted to introduce Vietnamese player Ruan Guanghai.
The general manager of Riga is former Bayern player Thorsten Fink. The German football star highly recommends the short Vietnamese striker.
If the trip is made, Nguyen Quang Hai will be the first Vietnamese striker to join the Europa League. At the same time, in the next World Cup, the strength of the Vietnamese team will also be greatly strengthened.
Ruan Quang Hai, who was 97 years old, participated in the U23 Asian Cup held in Suzhou in 2018, and his skills were very prominent in front of a group of 95 age group players. After that, in the Asian Cup, Asian Games and other competitions, Ruan Quang Hai has played well.
In contrast, only a few people such as Zhang Yuning, Wei Shihao, and Tomorrow played out the post-95 national football players.
However, it was time for the World Preliminary Tournament. Nguyen Quang Hai's position was moved back, and coupled with his limited height, he did not contribute much in defense. In this round of 12 match, Nguyen Quang Hai has made little contribution except for scoring a long-range shot against Saudi Arabia in the first match. But that doesn't stop him from being picked up by European teams.
According to The Vietnamese media, one of the most important targets for Nguyen Quang Hai is The current general manager of Riga FC, Fink. The Bundesliga star has worked in German, Swiss and Austrian football leagues. He also travelled to Japan to find potential Asian players for Bayern.
Riga FC competed in this season's Champions League but lost 1-2 to Swedish champions Malmö. After that, they went to the European Cup and beat Skeenjar and Paula Irish. After that, they lost to the Lincoln Red Devils on penalties and failed to qualify for the European Cup.
This season, Riga FC has a mediocre performance, ranking fourth in the league. But it is only 1 point away from the European theater.
It is reported that Riga FC has cooperated with the Hanoi club where Nguyen Quang Hoi is located. But it is not easy to take away Nguyen Quang Hai. Hanoi not only has league tasks, but also participates in the AFC Champions League.
However, Riga's European environment and advanced training, as well as the conditions of being able to score in the European Cup, Champions League and Europa League, still attract Vietnamese players. Since Duan Wenhou had played in Europe briefly before, Nguyen Quang Hai could not be counted as the first Vietnamese person in Europe.
Nguyen Quang Hai is 2 steps away from his own european journey. First, Hanoi FC, where he worked, signed a 5-year contract with him. Second, Riga FC has a large number of foreign players, including players from Brazil, Nigeria, Croatia, Russia, Russia and Morocco. The 163cm Nguyen Quang Hai competes with them without any advantage.
If Nguyen Quang Hai is eventually able to travel to Europe, he is expected to catch up with national footballers such as Wu Lei and Li Lei.
Ruan Guanghai, who is less than 25 years old, is 6 years younger than Er Lei, and his prospects are brighter. In addition, Nguyen Quang Hai will definitely be the leader of the Vietnamese team in the next World Preliminary Tournament. Wu Lei may participate in the next World Preliminary Tournament, but Li Lei basically has no chance of the subsequent competition.
Just when Vietnamese players are actively looking for opportunities to travel to Europe, Players such as Wei Shihao, He Chao, Yang Liyu and Zhu Chenjie, who have competed with Nguyen Quang Hai, are still in the domestic league. Zhang Yuning suffered a failed trip to Europe. If you want to not fall behind, the young players of the national football team need to go to Europe to train themselves, rather than be satisfied with the performance in the domestic league.
