Immediately after the announcement, the Facebook post received an overwhelming response with 6,000 reactions, 1,500 comments, and over 1,000 shares.

Many fans expressed their excitement and mentioned that they would be attending the concert with their friends.

In 2011, Westlife visited Vietnam for the first time and performed at My Dinh Stadium in Hanoi as part of their Westlife Gravity Tour.

Two years later, Shane Filan, the main vocalist of Westlife, held the You & Me Tour Live in Saigon show at 7 Nguyen Tat Thanh Street in District 4, Ho Chi Minh City.

In 2017, Shane Filan returned to Vietnam for his Love Always Tour, where he performed his own songs as well as Westlife’s greatest hits at a stadium in Ho Chi Minh City.

Westlife, formed in Dublin, Ireland in 1998, consists of Shane Filan, Mark Feehily, Kian Egan and Nicky Byrne. Brian McFadden, a former member, left the band in 2004.

The group disbanded in 2012 but made a highly-anticipated reunion in 2018.

Westlife gained immense popularity among Vietnamese audiences in the 1990s and 2000s.

In their home country of Ireland, Westlife has achieved 11 number-one albums, 16 number-one singles, and 34 top-fifty singles.

The band has sold a remarkable 55 million records worldwide and holds four Guinness World Records.

Some of their greatest hits include My Love, I Lay My Love on You, Queen of My Heart, Seasons in the Sun, Mandy, Fool Again, Swear it Again, and When You Tell Me That You Love Me.

Vietnamese Football Club Ordered to Pay $73,000 to Slovakian Team for Player Training Expenses

“We have successfully completed the transfer of fines and compensation to the designated recipient, effectively resolving the issue,” said Ngo Quoc Ta, Chairman of SHB Da Nang FC, a top-tier V-League 1 team in Vietnam, in an interview with Tuoi Tre (Youth) newspaper on Tuesday. “The incident has served as a valuable lesson for our club and other professional football clubs,” Ta added. Bui Xuan Hoa, Ta’s predecessor, attributed the incident to the team’s lack of expertise in the regulations and legal procedures surrounding the transfer of player Pham Thanh Tiep. Tiep, who was born in Slovakia in 1996 and trained at FC Banik Prievidza, a team in the Slovak third-tier league, since the age of 12, joined SHB Da Nang on a trial basis in early 2019 and eventually secured a two-year contract. However, due to a mismatch in playing style, Tiep terminated his contract with SHB Da Nang and reimbursed one year’s worth of the signing fee. According to FIFA regulations, when a club signs a prof...
