On April 22, the Chinese Football Association (CFA) announced its latest leadership team and ministers of various departments. Song Kai became the president of the CFA, and Zhang Jiasheng became the party secretary of the CFA. The ministerial positions of core departments such as National Team Management, Refereeing and Competition are all vacant, with deputy ministers taking over the duties. So, is the CFA the leader of Song Kai or Zhang Jiasheng?

According to their respective division of work, Zhang Jiasheng should be in charge of the training and competition of the men's and women's national teams, responsible for reviewing and organizing the men's and women's leagues, guiding youth and mass soccer, and in charge of external liaison work, so it can be said that he is a very key figure.

However, under the chief executive responsibility system, Song Kai has been making frequent appearances in the public eye as chairman of the FA, attending national team matches, traveling to Chongming Island for youth training, and also watching Chinese Super League matches on the ground, and seems to be the primary person to take on the managerial responsibility of being the chairman of the FA.

According to the management system of the Table Tennis Association and the Basketball Association, Liu Guoliang and Yao Ming are the top leaders. The Table Tennis Association does not have a Party Secretary. Guo Zhenqing is the vice president and party secretary of the basketball association, and the president and top leader of the association.

In front of the screen, do you think the FA is Song Kai or Zhang Jia Sheng?
