Striker Cong Vinh plays for a J-League club
(VOV) -Song Lam Nghe An FC striker Le Cong Vinh will play for Japan’s Consadole Sapporo FC under a loan contract due to be announced on July 22.
Under the contract, Vinh is said to receive a monthly salary of US$7,000 to play for Consadole Sapporo in the last four months of the 2012-2013 J-League football season.
Consadole Sapporo, currently performing in the second division of J-League, contacted Vinh six month ago when he did not join Song Lam Nghe An. However, he refused the offer due to his private reasons.
Vinh, who is now V-League’s top scorer with 14 goals, played for Portugal’s Leixoes FC in 2009 but had little chance to appear in the lineup.
