A brand-new 2006-born striker speaks candidly about his first call-up to the U23 Vietnam team.

Young player Trong Son of Bac Ninh Club shares noteworthy thoughts upon being summoned to the U23 Vietnam squad.

Nguyen Trong Son is experiencing emotional days playing for Bac Ninh, having just received the honorable call-up to U23 Vietnam. Sharing about this memorable milestone, Trong Son could not hide his pride:

“Being called up to U23 Vietnam is a great honor for me. This also motivates me to continue striving and improving myself further.”

According to the plan, U23 Vietnam assembled in Hanoi on March 17 to prepare for the upcoming international tournament. However, Trong Son will continue with Bac Ninh Club to play the National Cup quarter-final – a crucial match for the entire team.

For the 2006-born player, this is not only a responsibility but also an opportunity to prove himself: “I will play with my highest form and dedicate myself fully for the team in the upcoming National Cup quarter-final.”

Midfielder Nguyen Trong Son (born 2006) is currently playing for Bac Ninh. This young player participated with the club in the 2024/25 National Second Division before being registered as an additional player during the mid-season of the 2025/26 National First Division.

In Bac Ninh’s colors, Trong Son shows clear progress with an energetic playing style, speed, and ability to cover wide areas in midfield. Recent positive performances have helped the 2006-born midfielder receive high praise from experts.

That impressive form helped Trong Son catch the eye of coach Kim Sang-sik and earn the chance to join the upcoming U23 Vietnam training camp. This is seen as a deserved reward for the young player’s efforts over recent times.

According to the plan, U23 Vietnam will assemble on March 17 in Hanoi to prepare for the CFA Team China – Xi'an 2026 International Football Tournament, taking place from March 25 to March 31, 2026 in China. It is highly likely that the U23 Vietnam call-up list will soon be finalized with many names still very new to fans.
