PHNOM PENH (5 August 2014) – Newly crowned Phnom Penh Crown FC have already started to prepare for the new season where this week they snapped up 27-year-old attacking midfielder Va Sokthorn.
Phnom Penh picked up their fifth Cambodia crown recently.
“I have followed Cambodian football for many years, so I am very happy to have signed a contract with Crown for one season,” said Sokthorn, who was born in Le Creusot in the Eastern French region of Burgundy to Khmer parents.
“I was wanted by clubs at good levels in France but my priority was to play in Cambodia and Crown have given me that opportunity.”
Sokthorn is the third French-Cambodian player to be signed by Phnon Penh.
