Club career
[edit]Career in Sweden
[edit]Tran spent his youth career at BK Olympic before stepping up to senior football. In 2018, he joined Varbergs BoIS in the Superettan, Sweden's second-highest division. He then moved to Kristianstad FC in 2019 and Torns IF in 2020, competing in Division 1/Ettan, the third tier of Swedish football. During this period, he established himself as a reliable midfielder, gaining consistent playing time and experience.
His most notable spell in Sweden was with Lunds BK, which he joined in 2021. Over four seasons, Tran became a key figure in the team's midfield, making 92 league appearances and scoring 5 goals. Known for his vision, passing range, and composure on the ball, he was an integral part of the club's strategy in the Ettan league.
Bắc Ninh

The transfer marked a new chapter in his career, as he left Europe to play in his country of heritage for the first time. He was unveiled as a marquee signing for the newly-promoted club, which has invested heavily in its squad with the stated goal of achieving promotion to V.League 1.[1] He was given the number 10 shirt, signaling his importance to the team's creative and defensive plans in the midfield.
Personal life
