Anh completed the purchase before departing for South Korea on Nov. 23 with the Vietnam national team for a training camp ahead of the AFF Cup 2024. Last month, he gifted his parents the Ford, which cost VND1.6 billion.

Porsche is a popular brand among Vietnamese footballers, with defenders Que Ngoc Hai, Vu Van Thanh, and Doan Van Hau also owning cars from the luxury automaker.

In addition to the car, Anh also gifted his parents an apartment in Hanoi in 2019.

At 25, Anh joined the Hanoi youth academy in 2012 after a trial. He gained widespread recognition in 2020 when he played for Hanoi FC in the V-League and was voted the Best Young Player of the season.

In 2022, Anh helped the U23 Vietnam team secure a gold medal at the SEA Games and win the U23 Southeast Asia Championship. In the same year, he made his debut for the national team during the third round of World Cup 2022 qualifying. Since then, he has earned 19 caps and scored one goal for Vietnam.
