The Korean coach officially signed a five-year contract with Bac Ninh, a third division club, on February 19.

According to VNA, under the terms of the contract, Park will oversee a variety of tasks, ranging from professional and business activities to the ambitious goal of developing Bac Ninh into a professional football team.

Park's agency, DJ Management & Inspired Asian Management, stated that the contract allows Park to also serve as a coach if he receives offers from domestic or foreign clubs, as well as associations.

"After my contract with the Vietnamese national team expired, I felt a strong desire to continue contributing to the development of Vietnamese football, as a way of reciprocating the love I received from Vietnam," Park said.

"I established a football academy in Vietnam, and we are currently training many promising players. Signing the contract with Bac Ninh marks my second project. While the club's operating system is still in its early stages, we will dedicate ourselves to gradually developing it into a professional football team.

I am thrilled to collaborate with a team that possesses passion and a strategic vision. I will give my utmost effort.

"We are also in discussions regarding management roles with other associations and clubs. We will carefully consider our options before making any decisions."

Bac Ninh hope that their strategic partnership with Park will establish a solid foundation for the club over the next 10 years, enabling them to ascend to the highest professional tournament of Vietnamese football./.
