Đinh Quang Kiệt (born 16 July 2007) is a Vietnamese professional footballer who plays as a center-back or striker for V.League 1 club Hoàng Anh Gia Lai.

Quang Kiệt was born in a poor family in Bà Rịa-Vũng Tàu. At 13 years old, thanks to his exceptional height (1.86 m) compared to his peers, he caught the attention of scouts and was admitted to the Hoàng Anh Gia Lai Academy.[2][3][4]

Club career

In March 2024, Quang Kiệt joined Kon Tum on loan, where he made his senior debut in the Vietnamese Second Division.[5]

In October 2024, Quang Kiệt was loaned to V.League 2 club Long An for one season.[6] There, he made his professional in first matchday of the 2024–25 V.League 2, helping his team keep a clean sheet in a 0–0 draw against PVF-CAND.[7]

After 3 months at Long An, Hoàng Anh Gia Lai recalled Quang Kiệt for the second part of the 2024–25 season. He made his V.League 1 debut on 8 February 2025, coming in as a substitute in his team 1–2 away loss against Thể Công-Viettel.[8] On 9 November 2025, Quang Kiệt scored the first goal of his career, a last-minute header that secured a 1–1 draw for his team in the V.League 1 match against Đông Á Thanh Hóa.[9]

International career

In June 2023, Quang Kiệt was called up to the Vietnam U17 team for the 2023 AFC U-17 Championship and appeared in two group stage games as a substitute.[10]

In August 2025, Quang Kiệt received his first call up to the Vietnam national team for an internal training camp.[11]
