Nguyễn Văn Đàn (born 30 April 1974) is a Vietnamese former footballer who played as a defender.

Career

He was born in Bình Định, but grew up in Gia Lai.[1]

He played nine seasons for Hoàng Anh Gia Lai, during which he became V-League champion in 2003 and 2004.[2]

He was capped five times for the Vietnam national team.[3][2]

He took over as manager of Hoàng Anh Gia Lai in 2020, after Lee Tae-hoon was sacked. Serving together with Dương Minh Ninh, it was said to be the first instance of a V.League club having co-coaches, though Nguyễn Văn Đàn was described as "the person who makes the final decision".[4]
