Shanghai Shenhua coach and Russian coach Slutsky has arrived in China and is about to lead the team to start work. Upon his arrival in Shanghai, Slutsky also gave an interview to Russian media owners. Speaking about the club's next signing, Slutsky interestingly said that he won't be asking about these jobs at the moment, which reflects his high level of intelligence as an "old world" player.
Earlier, famous Russian agent Seluk revealed that Slutsky would definitely invite Russian legend Artem Dzyuba to join him after he became the coach of Shanghai Shenhua. The deal has also attracted a lot of attention from the Russian media due to the significant influence of Dyuba in Russian soccer. So I wish to ask Slutsky for confirmation.
On Shenhua's future signing strategy, Slutsky said, "I can't comment on that because we haven't done that work yet. I am in a very professional music department and we have a special department for signings, and the relevant department will make decisions to a large extent about what players to bring in."
As for whether or not to bring in Kuba, Slutsky also confessed, "I think the speculation that we are interested in Kuba is pretty far gone now. As always, I think Kuba is a strong player, but I also know that he is very important for his current club. He will prove himself there. At this stage, we remain in touch from a distance."
Judging from Slutsky's response to the topic of signing, he is indeed a coach with high emotional intelligence. As we all know, the most complicated interest in the Chinese Super League is transfer assistance. Many foreign teachers can't wait for clubs to sign, or even intervene directly, which is a taboo and the origin of many subsequent conflicts. Now, at least Slutsky won't make that mistake.
