He played a key role in Hà Nội's V.League 1 and National Cup titles this year.

"I am happy that my effort and contribution have been recognised. But I couldn't have won this award without the support of my teammates and supporters. I will work hard to remain at my peak and contribute to both the club and the national team," said Quyết, who also earned a slot in the 2022 season's best XI.
