In June 2022, Hoàng Anh Gia Lai's manager Kiatisuk Senamuang expressed his wish to integrate Quốc Việt to the team. The player had previously played for Nutifood and PVF earlier that season, making the move impossible at the moment because FIFA rules forbid a player from playing for more than 2 clubs in the same season.[9] Quốc Việt remained at Nutifood until the end of the season and played in the 2022 Vietnamese Football League Third Division.
On 6 December 2022, it was confirmed that Quốc Việt will join Hoang Anh Gia Lai from the 2023 season.[10] On 5 April 2023, he scored his first professional goal on Hoang Anh Gia Lai's 4–1 V.League 1 win against Viettel.[11] This was his only league goal during the season.

In October 2024, Quốc Việt received his first call up to the Vietnam national team for the friendly game against India.[25]
Quốc Việt possesses the skills of a modern goalscorer with a great pace, technique, positioning and finishing ability with his feet as well as with his head. He is called the "King of youth competitions" by Vietnamese media with a series of individual and team titles that he won in youth competitions.[3][9][26] His style is similar to Anderson Talisca.
