HÀ NỘI  Spiker Trần Thị Thanh Thúy has received an offer from Japanese Denso Airy Bees volleyball club to sign a new contract.

Denso Airy Bees sent an official offer to Thúy’s VTV Bình Điền Long An club recently.

The Japanese side want Thúy, whose current deal with them will end in mid-May, back in action with them in September.

Last year, Thúy joined Denso Airy Bees after a one-week try-out. The 1.93m Vietnamese star is the second tallest player of the team.

No details of the contract were released but it was reported that Thúy, the second Vietnamese female volleyballer competing abroad after Nguyễn Thị Ngọc Hoa, received up to VNĐ4 billion (US$170,000) annually.

VTV Bình Điền Long An managers have not made a final decision about Thúy but they strongly support her sharpening her skills at Denso Airy Bees.

Denso Airy Bees are the third foreign club that Thúy, a key player of the national team who won silver at the 30th Southeast Asian Games, has played for.

Earlier, she played for Bangkok Glass of Thailand and Attack Line of Chinese Taipei. VNS
