Nguyen Xuan Son suddenly reappeared after a serious injury that caused social media to make waves

The month of June began with emotional good news for Vietnamese football fans: Nguyen Xuan Son – the main striker of Nam Dinh Club and the national team – has officially returned to the training ground after more than two months of struggling with a persistent knee injury.

The image of Xuan Son wearing a training shirt, reappearing on the familiar grass, gently making the first touches is not only a positive sign of physical condition but also has a great spiritual meaning for Nam Dinh fans. No need for sprints or powerful finishes, just a simple ball support is enough to make thousands of hearts sob.

On his personal page, Nguyen Xuan Son only wrote one sentence: "Thank you everyone for sending messages of encouragement." Not fancy, not long-winded, but each word seems to remain a long way to silently overcome pain and persist in recovering from injuries.

As soon as the image of Xuan Son returning to the training ground was shared, social networks immediately "woke up". In just a few hours, hundreds of comments appeared, full of love and expectation: "King Son is coming back!", "Let's come back stronger than before, brother!", "Congratulations Son! Quickly recover and regain your form!".

These messages are not just polite. It is a sincere wait from fans – who have witnessed a brilliant "Spring Mountain" on the field, and now only look forward to the day when he reappears in the familiar yellow and blue shirt.

According to Saostar from a reputable sports health expert – who has accompanied many national players, Xuan Son's recovery process is taking place faster than expected. If everything goes well and there are no complications, the striker born in 1999 can completely return to the field in October. That good news is lighting up great hopes for both the team and the fans.

However, the sports doctor also frankly shared: whether Nguyen Xuan Son can return to compete at the highest level is still a question mark. The recovery process depends not only on the speed of mechanical recovery, but also on the test of physical fitness, competitive psychology, and the ability to adapt to high-intensity movement situations – especially when playing at peak speed. In other words, the door has opened, but the journey ahead is still challenging.

In the most ideal scenario, Xuan Son can reappear in the last rounds of the first leg of the V.League 2025/2026. It is also the time when he can reach the most prolific physical state, ready to return to the national team in the gatherings in October or November.

Notably, the Vietnamese team will face Nepal and Laos in the framework of the 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers in exactly two months. This can be a golden opportunity for coach Kim Sang-sik to summon Nguyen Xuan Son – a symbol of will, to return to the Red Garuda squad after a resilient period of convalescence.

Few people know that the name "Nguyen Xuan Son" has only appeared in recent years, and his real identity is Rafaelson Bezerra Fernandes – a boy born in 1997 from Pirapemas, a small impoverished town in Brazil. In childhood memories associated with hardships and deprivation, football is a way out, a belief to change life.

After years of struggling to find a foothold in his homeland, Rafaelson decided to venture into Vietnam. From the early days at SHB Da Nang, then the adventure in Binh Dinh, to wearing the shirt of Nam Dinh Club, each stop is engraved with non-stop efforts. But only when he came to Nam Dinh, he really found a place called "roof". And it was here that he chose for himself a pure Vietnamese name – Nguyen Xuan Son – as a commitment to live fully with the country that welcomed him with open arms.

Now, fans are not expecting a "superhero" to return. They only hope to see a Nguyen Xuan Son who is strong enough, brave enough to continue to burn with the round ball, like how he once lit the fire for an unforgettable season.
