During the recent working trip to Spain, Tran Quoc Tuan, president of the VFF, met with Javier Tebas, president of LaLiga, to discuss cooperation opportunities in the future.

The Vietnamese delegation also visited a number of LaLiga clubs such as Getafe and Atletico Madrid to learn more about their organisation and operation.

They toured around ESC LALIGA & NBA Youth Sports Center and watched the Laliga match between Atletico Madrid and Girona FC.

The visit marks an important milestone in the framework of the cooperation agreement between the two sides from September 2023 to June 2026.

Earlier in January in Hanoi, experts from LaLiga Academy held a training course for 41 Vietnamese coaches from youth football clubs and training centres across the country.

In September 2023, the two organisations signed a Memorandum of Understanding, aiming to seek and develop talented young players in Vietnam and carry out various sports training projects in the country.
