VietNamNet Bridge – Premier League FC Arsenal players have sent Lunar New Year (Tet) greetings to their Vietnamese fans in the lead up to the Tet holiday.

In a video clip published on their website, Kieran Gibbs, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Thomas Vermaelen all extended joyful Tet wishes in Vietnamese, reading out "Chao Vietnam. Chuc mung Nam Moi – nam Giap Ngo” (Hello Vietnam! Happy New Year – the Year the Horse).

Then each player recorded their own wishes to Vietnamese fans, thanking them for their support and wishing them all the best for the new year.

Arsenal FC stopped over in Vietnam for a friendly match against the national team during their Asia tour last year. They experienced the zeal of Vietnamese fandom, exemplified in “Running Man” Vu Xuan Tien, who was later invited to make a tour of the club.
