Kirin in Focus

At 32 years old, Tristan Do is an experienced player whose profile speaks for itself. His abilities are widely recognized, and his leadership qualities are unquestionable.

Tristan Do isn’t just the captain of Muangthong United because of his age or experience. Every minute on the pitch, the Paris-born defender never stops fighting or running, even when results don’t go the team’s or fans’ way.

Off the field, Tristan Do demonstrates outstanding leadership. While fans may not always see these moments, his teammates, juniors, and those close to the team unanimously agree that he fully deserves to be captain both on and off the pitch.

Bulgarian defender Stefan Tsonkov smilingly told us that Tristan Do loves his family deeply and is a great father.

Most recently, Kim Dong-su shared his impressions: “Captain Do (Tristan Do) has helped me a lot. We talk often and became close quickly. From training, I understand exactly why he’s the captain here.”

Throughout the years, Muangthong United captains may not always have been the most skillful players on the field, but their leadership has never been in doubt – from Natthaphon Phanrit, Datsakorn Thonglao, Teerasil Dangda, Sarach Yooyen, and many others.

Similarly, 32-year-old defender Tristan Do today fully deserves to be the rightful captain of Muangthong United – both as the wearer of the armband on the pitch and as the leader of the players off it.
