In the midst of all of this, it comes as no surprise to fans that Liu Guobo did not pass Cui Kangxi's inspection. This is not surprising because when Liu Guobo joined the Luneng team last season, it was said to be because of his brother Liu Guobao. In order to be able to keep Liu Guobo, Luneng decided to sign the unproven Liu Guobo as well. As a result, Liu Guobo was labeled as a connected player. Choi Kang-hee has always been known to rule with an iron fist, so naturally he will not give face to his connections.
During Luneng's winter training, Cui Kangxi gave Liu Guobo the opportunity to showcase himself. But unfortunately, the domestic striker did not seize the opportunity. Therefore, after thorough consideration, Cui Kangxi decided to keep Liu Guobo off the AFC Champions League roster. In the future, Liu Guobo is likely to be loaned to a Central League team, which is the best option for him. Hopefully, he will find a new club soon and get out of his career slump.
