National U21 star Hà Đức Chinh has signed a loan contract with First Division’s HCM City FC, according to the team’s managers.

Chinh, from the V. League side Quảng Ninh Coal, however, played for the new club in a match against Huế FC on June 18 in which HCM City won 1-0.

Coach Lư Đình Tuấn said, “Chinh is a quality player, strong and quick. He showed off his outstanding performance in the Huế match. We will have more choices for the forward line, especially when we are in the important period of the league.”

Apart from Chinh, HCM City also wooed three other players who are former members of the national U-23 squad – striker Nguyễn Ngọc Anh, defender Sỹ Nam and midfielder Doãn Ngọc Tân.

HCM City are on top after nine rounds with 20 points.

They will play Nam Định at the away venue, Thiên Trường Stadium, tomorrow. – VNS
