Nguyễn Xuân Son professional and financial profile
Overview
Nguyễn Xuân Son, a Brazilian-born naturalized football player for the Vietnam national team, has gained significant public attention following his performance in the ASEAN Cup, where he shared the top scorer award with Đình Bắc.
Reports regarding his lifestyle in Vietnam have highlighted several high-value residences. These include a three-story house in Ninh Bình province rented in early 2024, a larger neo-classical residence in Ninh Bình occupied in late 2025, and a property in Hanoi valued at approximately 26 billion VND.
In addition to his residential holdings, Son has secured a record-breaking contract with Thép Xanh Nam Định. Running until 2031, the agreement reportedly includes a monthly salary of approximately 25,000 USD. With substantial signing bonuses, Son has become the highest-paid player in Vietnamese football history in terms of signing bonuses, surpassing previous records held by player Hoàng Đức.
His market value was previously highlighted following the 2023/24 season, when he scored 31 goals to help Nam Định win the V. League title. During that period, a club from Saudi Arabia reportedly offered over 3 million USD to recruit him, an offer that was declined by Nam Định.
