Six overseas-born players named in squad for 2026 ASEAN Championship

Vietnam names a 28-player squad for the 2026 ASEAN Championship, including six overseas-born players, signaling a broadened talent pool for Kim Sang Sik’s side. The squad blends naturalised and Vietnamese-origin players such as Nguyen Xuan Son, Dang Van Lam, and Do Hoang Hen with newcomers Le Giang Patrik, Nguyen Tai Loc, and Ngo Dang Khoa. The team regroups in Hanoi on June 22, then travels to Korea from July 2-14 for a training camp and three friendlies to refine squad chemistry. A July 18 international in Thai Nguyen against Myanmar proceeds final preparations ahead of the ASEAN Championship, with CAHN drawn in Group B for 2026-2027.
