History
In 2022, Hà Nội B, the reserves team of V.League 1 side Hà Nội, entered the 2022 Third Division. The team took five seasons before promoting to the V.League 2 from the 2026–27 season as play-off winners in the 2026 Second Division.[1]
On 30 July 2026, the People's Committee of Thái Nguyên province approved the proposal to establish the Thái Nguyên Football Club.[2] As the result, Hà Nội B successfully transferred their V.League 2 participation slot to the newly established Thái Nguyên team.[3] This is the first ever professional men's football team from Thái Nguyên province.[4]
