Leo Artur is nearing a contract extension with Hanoi Police Club and is included in the strategy to maintain squad stability for long-term objectives.
According to information from Football Newspaper, Leo Artur is very close to extending his contract with Hanoi Police Club, as the police department team intensifies its plan to stabilize the squad for long-term targets. This is considered an important step to maintain the attacking strength of the capital's team.
Previously, the striker born in 1995 drew attention when posting a farewell-like status on social media, leading many to believe he was preparing to leave the team. However, the Brazilian player quickly clarified, stating it was merely a tribute to Vietnam, and denied any possibility of departure at the current time.
Joining the team in the 2024/25 season with a 2-year contract, Leo Artur quickly proved his professional value. Not only an effective scorer, he also plays a crucial role in linking play and creating breakthroughs in the forward line, becoming an indispensable component in the tactical system.
This season, the Brazilian forward's performance has been particularly impressive. After 14 appearances, he has scored 8 goals and contributed 11 assists, numbers that demonstrate the completeness of his play. This is also the best performance in Leo Artur's career, further reinforcing the reasons for the club's leadership to decide to retain him long-term.
According to the plan, the new contract between both parties may extend until 2028, fitting into the team's strategy of building a stable core framework. Not only Leo Artur, this club has also been renewing contracts with many other key players to ensure continuity and cohesion within the squad.
The consecutive moves in the transfer market indicate the ambitious goals of the police department team. Retaining key figures, including Leo Artur, not only helps maintain competitiveness in V-League but also aims to elevate the team's stature in international arenas in the coming period.
