After the withdrawal of Evergrande, the original Evergrande soccer stadium project was renamed as "Guangzhou Soccer Park". The latest news shows that the project is expected to resume. However, to the disappointment of the fans, the resumption of the soccer stadium project has been significantly reduced from the original plan of 100,000 people to 75,000, a reduction of 25,000 seats.
It is reported that even at this 75,000 seat size, it is the largest soccer stadium in China and the second largest professional soccer stadium in Asia. Judging from the progress of this soccer stadium, the construction of the most expensive bottom has been completed. It is believed that this new and modern soccer stadium will become a landmark of Guangzhou in no time.
Looking back at Evergrande's ambitious vision when it built this soccer stadium, I can't help but feel embarrassed. That year, I wanted to build Asia's top soccer stadium. Not only was the number of spectators the largest, but it was also planned to be a world-class sports and culture business complex with the grand concept of integrating a variety of new business formats to meet the needs of fans for different leisure and entertainment experiences.
The most recent update on the planned business shows that the acquisition will include apartments, offices, a hotel, and a sports complex. We don't know what the specific elements of this sports complex will be, and whether they will partially conform to Evergrande's original design.
Anyway, the re-launch of the project is good news for fans who like to watch football. Whether you're a local Guangzhou fan or a fan of another Chinese Super League team, there's a chance that your home team could play here in the future and then you'll be able to experience it for yourself.
Seeing that the program is about to return to work has fans talking. Some lamented Evergrande's exit, while other fans wondered which team built it. Guangzhou has now been relegated to the Central League, and there is no telling when they will make it to the Super League. The other newly formed Guangzhou Leopards are still playing in the Central League and will have to wait until 2026 even if they are upgraded every year.
Of course, even if there is no Guangzhou soccer team available, there is still the possibility of hosting concerts for entertainment. Many fans hope that when the Guangzhou team rushes up to the Chinese Super League, they might have their home stadium here. After all, this was the original purpose of Evergrande building this soccer stadium.
