jpnn.com – The Vietnam national team actually does not turn a blind eye to the naturalization of players. However, there are things that make the naturalization process difficult to realize.
Team nicknamed The Golden Star it’s being battered. They are in danger of failing to advance to the third round of the 2026 World Cup Qualifications in the Asian zone.
To strengthen the team, the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) can actually call up several players of descent who play abroad for naturalization.
However, this is difficult to achieve because of statutory regulations that must be respected.
“We can no longer maintain the old point of view. There is a new perspective (naturalization, ed), as we did with Filip Nguyen.”
“However, VFF is not the part that handles the naturalization process, but must follow the Vietnamese Citizenship Law. We cannot naturalize players, but have to see whether the player complies with the law or not,” explained VFF Vice President, Tran Anh Tu, as reported by VNExpress.
Therefore, to strengthen the Vietnam National Team, VFF prefers to develop the young talents they have.
“Our long-term strategy is to promote quality young players at club level,” he stressed.
