Born in Nam Định, Ngọc Sơn was a youth product of his local team Nam Định FC.[2] In 2021, he was promoted to Nam Định's first team but only made his debut an year later. On 7 August 2022, he scored his first V.League 1 goal in his team's 2–1 victory against Hồ Chí Minh City.[3]
In the 2023 season, Ngọc Sơn appeared in 13 matches and scored 3 goals. Therefore, he was nominated for the "Best young player of the season" award but lost to Nguyễn Thái Sơn.[4][5]
