International career

Summarize
Perspective

Filip is eligible to play for either the Czech Republic or Vietnam at international level.

In July 2019, it was reported that Filip was in the process of becoming naturalized as a Vietnamese citizen, which would allow him to represent the country's national team for the succeeding 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.[13]

In September 2020, Filip received his first call-up to the Czech Republic national team for their UEFA Nations League match against Scotland on 7 September.[14] Due to positive SARS-CoV-2 tests in the previous Czech squad, all players and the coaching staff which faced Slovakia on 4 September had to be replaced.[15][16][17]

On 6 December 2023, Filip announced on his Facebook page that he had successfully completed his Vietnamese naturalization, thus making him eligible to play for Vietnam.[11]

On 25 December 2023, Filip was selected in Vietnam's 34-man provisional squad for the 2023 AFC Asian Cup,[18] and later made the final squad.[19][20] He made his first senior international appearance against Kyrgyzstan in a 1–2 friendly defeat on 9 January 2024 in preparation for the tournament. Filip played in all of Vietnam's three matches at the 2023 AFC Asian Cup finals.
