Early career

Born in Tây Ninh, Thanh Nhàn started his youth career by participating in local youth football tournaments. His talent quickly impressed the local football managers, who advised him to take part in the admission test of youth football academies. Although in 2013 Thanh Nhàn was admitted to PVF Football Academy, he couldn't join the academy for personal reasons.[2][3] In 2014, he joined Tây Ninh youth academy. His performances during the 2019 Vietnamese National U-17 Football Championship caught the attention of Vietnam U19 manager Philippe Troussier. PVF Football Academy signed Thanh Nhàn under Troussier's demand.[4] Thanh Nhàn won two consecutives Vietnamese National U-19 Football Championships with PVF and was named as best player in the 2021 edition with seven goals scored.[5]

Club career

In 2022, Thanh Nhàn was promoted to PVF Football Academy's first team Phố Hiến. In his first season with club, Thanh Nhàn became a crucial starter and scored 10 goals after 20 matches in V.League 2, making him the league top scorer and helping the club finish third in the league.[6]

In the 2023 season, Thanh Nhàn continued to be in form with his team despite missing the beginning of the season due an injury. He scored two goals in the 2023 Vietnamese Cup to help PVF-CAND reaching the semi finals for the first time in the history before getting eliminated by Đống Á Thanh Hóa. In V.League 2, Thanh Nhàn bagged 10 goals like the previous season and finished as the top scorer for the second season in a row, as PVF-CAND ended up the season as the league's runner-up.

International career

Thanh Nhàn participated in the 2023 AFC U-20 Championship. He played in all three group stage matches but Vietnam under-20 failed to reach the quarter-finals despite having won two out of their three matches.[7] At the same year, Thanh Nhàn was named on Vietnam U22 squad for the 2023 Southeast Asian Games.[8]

Playing style

Thanh Nhàn is a versatile attacker who can play well as a winger as well as a forward. He was called "Pace King" and "Lungless Man" by the Vietnamese press, referring to his quick accelerations, his good stamina and good workrates in the field when constantly switch position during the game.[2][9][10]
