Club career

edit

Thanh Minh did athletics before becoming a footballer.[2]

Two years after his debut in the U-17 youth team of Huế FC, Thanh Minh was summoned to the first team by coach Nguyễn Đức Dũng, but he spent most of his first season as a backup for his teammate of the same age, Trần Danh Trung. After Trung left Huế, the 20-year-old Thanh Minh became the main striker of the team. In the 2023–24 V.League 2 season, he scored 10 goals throughout the season, thus finished second in the league's top scorer list. Therefore, he was named in the league's team of the season.[3]

On 29 July 2024, Thanh Minh signed for V.League 1 side Hà Nội.[4]

International career

edit

Thanh Minh participated at the 2022 AFC U-23 Asian Cup qualification phase, scoring the winning goal against Myanmar. He was part of the Vietnam team that won the gold medal in the 2021 SEA Games.[5][6]

Personal life

edit

Thanh Minh comes from a farming family belonging to the Tà Ôi ethnic group in A Lưới, Thừa Thiên Huế.[7]
