All-time list of foreign football players in Vietnam

It's no exaggeration to say foreign players play a very important part in the success of the V-league since its birth in 2000. They come from all over the world, from South East Asian countries such as Thailand, Cambodia to far lands like Europe, America and Africa. Some spent a short time playing in Vietnam but there are some spending their whole career here. I must admit I love the colors they bring to Vietnamese football.

So, I have built the All-time list of foreign players in Vietnam in order to give football fans more info about their favourite players. The list currently covers nearly 200 players, listed by nationality.

I believe it still lacks a lot so any addition, correction or suggestion would be much appreciated.

    It's a really great list Erick! I have one more name for you. Thai Port's Cameroonian goalkeeper Munze Ulrich played for Huda Hue in 2007.

    He is mentioned in this match report: http://english.vietnamnet.vn/sports/2007/03/669410/

    Cheers!
