HÀ NỘI  Đoàn Văn Hậu has been named the Best Young Player of V.League 1 2019.

Hậu, 20, is currently a member of SC Heerenveen of the Netherlands after moving on loan from Hà Nội FC.

He did not play for the capital side during the run-in, but his performances during his time in Việt Nam were enough to secure the title, presented by Việt Nam Professional Football Company, which manages local tournaments.

Hậu has not played for the Dutch club yet but was a key player for Hà Nội FC and still is for the national team.

The defender will fly home next week to join the national squad to prepare for the 2022 World Cup qualifiers against the UAE and Thailand. VNS
