HAGL youth coach Nguyễn Văn Đại has reshared a letter Trần Gia Bảo wrote to his parents in 2019, when he was 11 and beginning life away from home to pursue football. Bóng đá Plus reports that it describes adapting to daily life, education and training, supported by his family and coaches. The renewed attention offers background to his development at HAGL and with Vietnam’s youth teams. His inclusion in the Guardian’s list of 60 young talents dates to 2025, not this year.
