Xuan Son 'gained weight' by 100kg, fans called out to Van Toan, 'felt sorry' because he lost something?

After days of physical therapy and rehabilitation, Xuan Son's appearance has changed significantly, surprising the audience.

Recently, a Fanpage with 3.4 million followers shared Xuan Son's current photo with the caption: "Doctors have asked Mr. Luc not to eat food brought in from outside, especially pho and fried bananas. It is known that before, Xuan Son weighed about 95kg. During the time of recovery, due to little movement and a lot of IV fluids, he ended up in this state."

Right below the post, netizens left interactive comments: "Not fat, a lot of IV fluids cause water retention", "Fast metabolism, good absorption, this is considered Son's bulking time, hope Son comes back more radiant and stronger than before", "It's not even Tet yet but his face is already like this. If I make a few more banh chung during Tet, it'll be over", "Next week when my brothers come to visit, they'll keep going back and forth looking because they can't recognize my new look".

According to journalist Minh Hai, striker Nguyen Xuan Son has reached a weight of 100kg (1 quintal). The reason is that he did not exercise much and had to take a lot of fluids and medicine while recovering from his injury.

Previously, on January 10, according to an update from Vinmec Hospital, Nguyen Xuan Son was able to practice walking with crutches. The player wearing the number 12 jersey also happily joked: "I think I can play again today" in English.

Meanwhile, his 'brother' Van Toan, who is also recovering from an injury, appeared with a contrasting visual. Van Toan once posted a photo and covered part of his 'highlight'. The male player had to draw his own hair to make it longer when showing off photos on social media. Van Toan humorously revealed that because he had too little hair, he had to draw more.

Van Toan even changed his hair to white, which made his mother, Mrs. Dua, unable to hide her excitement. She said that before leaving for the competition, Van Toan changed his hair color and hairstyle. At that time, the family did not know, only when they saw Toan competing on the field did they know about her son's new hairstyle. "When Toan called home, I asked about his hairstyle, and Toan asked his parents if he was handsome. Toan's father praised his new hairstyle, and I jokingly called him 'old man Toan'," Mrs. Dua said happily.

Recently, when hearing the news that Xuan Son had a broken shin, Van Toan visited and gave 10,000 VND to buy fried bananas. This moment quickly went viral on social media because of its humor.

Talking about the time when Xuan Son can return to professional competition, Master Nguyen Quyet Thang - Chief Technician of the Orthopedic Trauma and Sports Medicine Center at Vinmec Hospital said: "Xuan Son's rehabilitation roadmap is divided into 4 stages with clear goals. In the first 1-2 weeks, the goal is to control pain, activate neuromuscular and restore mobility and prevent complications if any.

The next stages are aimed at increasing strength, improving range of motion, balance and physical preparation. After 6 months of maximum intensity training, if he meets the standards, Son will be allowed to compete again."

Thus, it is expected that in July 2025, if the recovery process goes smoothly, Xuan Son will be able to return to official competition. As for ensuring that he can reintegrate with Nam Dinh Club and the Vietnam National Team to compete at a high level, a thorough preparation process is required.

Nguyen Xuan Son, real name Rafaelson Bezerra Fernandes, born in 1997, was born in Brazil. He came to Vietnam on December 20, 2019 and became a potential striker of Nam Dinh Club on January 12, 2020.

At the ASEAN Cup 2024, Xuan Son brought home a penalty (Tien Linh successfully converted) and scored in the first leg of the semi-final against Singapore (2-0). In the first leg of the final against Thailand (January 2, 2025), he continued to score, opening the score and scoring the second goal, contributing greatly to the championship of the Vietnamese team. However, the joy of victory was not complete when he suffered a serious injury in the 34th minute of the second leg of the final.
