Four young footballers to play for Arsenal squad

(VOV) - Four Vietnamese footballers, Tran Huu Dong Trieu, Nguyen Cong Phuong, Luong Xuan Truong and Nguyen Tuan Anh, have been selected to play for Arsenal FC in London.

According to a November 16 letter sent to Hoang Anh-Gia Lai (HAGL) FC Doan Nguyen Duc from Arsenal FC Technical Director Steve Morrow, the four players from HAGL Arsenal JMG will soon reunite in London for training and competition.

Steve Morrow wrote that  the HAGL Arsenal JMG 1-0 victory over Arsenal’s U-18 side had attracted the attention of Arsenal coach Wenger. Wenger decided to select the four outstanding Vietnamese players for the London training course, lasting from the end of November to December 24. The Vietnamese players will have the chance to sharpen their professional skills in matches with the best members of U-18 Arsenal FC.

Chief coach of HAGL Arsenal JMG Guillaume said this is an excellent opportunity for local footballers to benefit from the different experiences of their international peers.

Thanks to the strong support of both Steve Morrow and Wenger, HAGL Arsenal JMG’s trainees were invited to a three-month intensive training programme in the UK, France, and Belgium.
