HÀ NỘI — Midfielder Vũ Minh Tuấn announced on Facebook that he has been sold by Thanh Hoá FC to Viettel ahead of the upcoming V.League 1 season.

The 14 time national team player signed a three year deal, with the transfer fee and his wages undisclosed.

Tuần had played for Thanh Hoá for one season after leaving Quảng Ninh FC.

Thanh Hoá are currently in tough financial circumstances, having lost sponsor FLC Group in November and are now run by the provincial sports department.

Before Tuấn, midfielder Ngô Hoàng Thịnh, goalkeeper Nguyễn Thanh Thắng and striker Pape Omar all left the club for other Vietnamese sides after contracts expired.

Tuấn is Viettel’s second new signing after securing the services of national team captain Quế Ngọc Hải last week, following the expiration of his Sông Lam Nghệ An contract.

Tuấn will start training with his new team in January. — VNS
