Many fans now know what's wrong with Chinese soccer. Namely, there is a shortage of people, a real shortage of people. At first, there was a shortage of centers. Later, Zhang Yuning got up. In addition, veteran Tan Long can top the table, so it's not that difficult for the time being. There is no way in the midfield at the moment. Zheng Zhi is hardly the type. Only Xu Xin and Yan Dinghao can carry the load. Let's see Dai Weijun's future growth and Delgado's form. The center back position is troublesome. Although there is a naturalized player Jiang Guangtai, there is no one to match Jiang Guangtai. That means Feng Xiaoting's type is broken when he is not in the national team.

So, we seem to be short across the entire center line, which is what happens when the CFL A teams use an outside center line. Over time, we squeezed out the talent upside. But it happened and we have to live with the results. There is no talent to take over now, and there still won't be for a long time to come.

So either the National Football League will have to accept the consequences of declining results, or it will have to figure out how to solve the talent shortage. Until then, we have thought of a way to solve this problem. That was to naturalize players. At that time we had naturalized a lot. Ackerson, Alan, Luo Guofu, Xiao Moto, Xiao Tao Tao in the front line, Delgado, Li Ke, Hou Yongyong in the midfield, and Jiang Guangtai in the center back. But unfortunately, with the end of the golden dollar era, everyone fell apart after the club ran out of money. The first naturalization plan was basically declared a failure.

The naturalized players didn't help the national football team get to the World Cup, and the clubs didn't have the money or the gold masters. So this naturalization is suspended. Because what foreigner changes his nationality to work for another country not to make more money? As a result, people no longer have any illusions about naturalized players. We also started to accept the decline of the national soccer team silently.

However, good news came recently as a Chinese Super League (CSL) foreigner has come forward to apply for naturalization and he wants to play for the national soccer team. The foreigner is center back Dugalic, who is currently playing for Chinese Super League dark horse Meizhou Hakka.Dugalic, 30, is a Serbian national. He has previously worked in the Russian Premier League and the Kazakhstan League, but has yet to be called up to the Serbian national team. He is 193 centimeters tall and has a very tough style. And he is also a defender with a sword. Last season, he scored two goals for Meizhou Hakka. So far, he has gotten two goals and an assistant this season. The other two goals were blown away by VAR. In an emergency, he can pull up to the front line.

It can be said that Dugaric is a hard style core defensive type that can be considered as a player needed for the national soccer team. Just recently, he gave an interview to the media and volunteered to play for the national soccer team. When asked if Stojkovic had coached in the Chinese Super League and wanted to be called up to the Serbian national team, Dugalic said bluntly: "Coach Stojkovic knows me. As a matter of fact, I have been waiting for a call-up to the Chinese national team, because I didn't play for the Serbian adult national team. I have a chance to naturalize and so can the Chinese national team."

So foreign aid is still rare, knowing that it probably won't go up much. Is it still possible to get naturalized? Will the FA still take the job? Of course there's also the problem that it will be five years before Dugaric can play for the national soccer team. He was 33 at the time and his form was unknown.
