HÀ NỘI  Việt Nam’s head coach Park Hang-seo has revealed his 25 players preliminary selected to compete at the upcoming ASEAN Football Federation (AFF) Suzuki Cup 2018.

Hoàng Anh Gia Lai (HAGL) have four names on the list including midfielder Lương Xuân Trường and strikers Nguyễn Công Phượng and Nguyễn Văn Toàn.

The team will train in Hà Nội before leaving for Laos on November 4 to prepare for the opening match with Laos in Group A on November 8.

On November 7, coach Park will officially name the 23 players who will take part in the AFF Cup which will be held at 12 different stadiums in Southeast Asia from November 8 to December 15.
