VFF invited India and Lebanon to join the tournament. However, on 3 October 2024, Lebanon announced their withdrawal from the tournament following the 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon.{{cite web|url=https://tienphong.vn/doi-tuyen-lebanon-rut-lui-vao-phut-chot-tuyen-viet-nam-gap-kho-khan-lon-post1678890.tpo|title=Đội tuyển Lebanon rút lui vào phút chót, tuyển Việt Nam gặp gặp khó khăn lớn|date=3 October 2024|publisher=Tiền Phong}} Due to lack of time, the Vietnam Football Federation was unable to invite a replacement team and decided to cancel the tournament. The match between Vietnam and India was maintained as a friendly game and was rescheduled to be held on 12 October 2024.

Ever since the inauguration of the Agribank football tournament in 2004 there has always been controversies surrounding the organisation of the tournament.{{cite web|url=http://vietnamnet.vn/service/printversion.vnn?article_id=1067355|title=Bank stops financing football cup, VFF's deficiencies exposed|work=Tien Phong|publisher=Vietnam Net|access-date=6 August 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080921161820/http://vietnamnet.vn/service/printversion.vnn?article_id=1067355|archive-date=21 September 2008|url-status=dead}} The most recurring issue is the lack of quality teams partaking in the tournament; for the first edition of the tournament Thailand sent a 'selection team' consisted of local league players unknown to Vietnamese fans, instead of the national team as requested by the VFF.

Japan and Bahrain both entered their youth teams in the 2005 and 2006 tournaments respectively, and on each occasion the invited teams lacked the quality that was demanded by the organisers. Due to the expressed disappointments of their Vietnamese organisers in 2006, the Bahrain Football Association (BFA) sent a letter stating their reasons for not sending a full-strength team to the tournament. For the 2007 edition of the Agribank Cup, Thailand once again declined an invitation to take part thus Zimbabwe was invited to fill the gap left by Thailand.

Due to the combination of factors, such as the lack of quality teams and the deficiencies of the VFF as the tournament organiser, Agribank announced that it would stop sponsoring the tournament in 2008.
