With excellent tactical vision, flexible ball distribution skills, and outstanding individual technique, he quickly won the hearts of fans since arriving in Vietnam. Hendrio has also expressed his desire to build a long-term career in Vietnamese football and dreams of representing the national team, similar to his former teammate at Nam Dinh, Nguyễn Xuân Sơn.

If called up to the Vietnam national team in the future, Hendrio could combine with prominent players like Quang Hải and Hoàng Đức to form a highly dynamic midfield under the Korean coach’s strategy.

Beyond his professional skills, Hendrio is also highly regarded for his professionalism and affection for the country where he is building his career. In many media interviews, the Hanoi FC player affirmed that he considers Vietnam his “second home” and hopes to contribute for a long time.

Hendrio’s presence continues the trend of naturalizing quality players for Vietnamese football, following successful cases such as Xuân Sơn, Đặng Văn Lâm, and Filip Nguyễn.
