After posting a somewhat sensitive status on his personal page, Leo Artur sparked online debate about whether he will leave or stay at CAHN Club.
Forward Leo Artur unexpectedly posted on his personal social media page the status: "Thank Vietnam for everything." Immediately, the online community had many mixed opinions about whether the Brazilian forward will continue to be attached to CAHN Club.
""Is Leo Artur leaving CAHN? Why post a farewell status? Leo is playing well in Vietnam, about to win the championship with CAHN too. Hopefully this is just a normal status," Facebook Huong Nguyen commented.
""If Leo Artur leaves CAHN, it would be truly regrettable. Artur is playing excellently, forming a perfect pair with Alan on the attack line. Without Alan in recent matches, Artur carries the entire attack of CAHN. I think CAHN will do everything to keep Artur. If they play in AFC Champions League Elite next season, they even more need Artur", Facebook Quang Tung hopes CAHN Club can keep Leo Artur.
""Perhaps this is just a normal status thanking Vietnamese fans. If it were me, I wouldn't foolishly leave Vietnam at this moment. The team is competing for the championship and has a huge advantage to win the tournament. If he renews his contract, there will be both wealth and fame. Artur's form is very high, so renewal would certainly be a valuable contract.

The examples of Son and Hen, how they benefited from obtaining Vietnamese nationality, he surely sees clearly. Just playing about two more years and maintaining good form, the door to the national team is still very bright. So overall, Leo Artur will still stay here", Facebook Stevie Nguyen thinks Leo Artur will stay in Vietnam.
""Right when I saw Leo's status, I inboxed him asking about leaving Viet nam. Leo also said no. So perhaps during free time, Leo felt he should thank what he has in Vietnam and posted that status", Facebook Nguyen Thanh Dat shared additional information.
"This player is among the smartest playing in V-League. Leo Artur plays with high unpredictability, but plays based heavily on inspiration. When Leo plays well, the whole team is lifted significantly; when down, he plays below form, doesn't create unpredictability, easily loses the ball. His playing style somewhat resembles Leandro of Hai Phong before", Facebook Ying Liwei gave an observation.
"Leo is a likable player. Perhaps he just wants to thank Vietnamese fans for loving and cheering him. But the Vietnamese tendency is to think after a thank you comes a farewell, so it turned out like this", Facebook Hoa Ha explained Leo just wants to thank Vietnamese fans.
"There's something few may know. When he first came to Vietnam, Leo Artur faced a major family incident. But in Vietnam, being enthusiastically cheered by fans, teammates sharing, he regained his inspiration for playing and competing. Therefore I think Leo will never leave Vietnam.
Recently there have been rumors that Artur will go to Thailand to play. But I don't believe that. Alan might possibly, but Artur will always stay in Vietnam to play football only", Facebook Nam Tien shared a story about Artur.
Currently, CAHN Club and Leo Artur personally have not taken any action regarding the above incident. CAHN is entering a crucial phase as they lead the second-placed team Viettel by 7 points after 19 rounds played. This is when Coach Polking wants the players to focus utmost both professionally and mentally.
