With the arrival of July, the summer transfer window of the Chinese Super League has officially opened. In order to achieve good results in the second phase of the league, clubs will strengthen their teams for the last time this season.
Recently many foreign aiders and Chinese Super League teams have been rumored. Compared to these foreigners, a player with a very special status has been getting more attention. He is Alan, the naturalized striker of the national soccer team.
Alan's return to the Chinese Super League has been rumored for some time now, but nothing has happened since. A recent update released by a Brazilian sports media outlet has finally made Alan's return a real hammer.
Recently, Brazil is known for its media globo according to a press release, Alan has officially canceled his contract with the Barclays Premier League club Fluminense FC and he will return to the Chinese Super League this summer.
According to news reports, although Allan and Fluminense FC have a one-year contract, the two sides have completed their contract early. Recently, Allan also received an offer from the Chinese Super League, indicating that Allan will return to the Chinese Super League this summer. Currently, Alan has left Fluminense FC and returned home to say goodbye to his relatives.
The 33-year-old Allan entered the Chinese Super League back in 2015. He joined Guangzhou Evergrande, who were in full swing at the time. However, soon after joining Evergrande, Allan suffered a serious injury of torn knee ligaments and was sidelined for the entire season.
Allan returned to Evergrande for the 2016 season and quickly showed his prowess in the UEFA Cup Golden Boot. This season, he scored 18 goals for Evergrande and dished out 9 assists in various matches. As a result of such outstanding performance, Alan also became a key target for Evergrande FC to naturalize, and completed the naturalization process in the summer of 2019, officially becoming a naturalized player.
Soon after, Alan was selected for the national team along with naturalized players such as Fernando and Luo Guofu, but unfortunately, they were not used by Li Tie, the head coach of the national team at the time. Having only very limited playing time in the World Cup qualifiers was one of the main reasons for the national soccer team's poor performance in the qualifiers.
At the beginning of last year, Alan officially terminated his contract with Guangzhou. Half a year later, he joined his old employer Fluminense. However, back to Fluminense, Alan's performance is not satisfactory. So far, he only scored two league goals for the team. In this case, Fluminense decided to terminate his contract early.
Alan is reportedly expected to join Chinese Super League newcomer Qingdao Hainiu in the summer window. Currently, the summer transfer window of the Chinese Super League has officially opened. It is believed that Hainiu club will officially announce Alan's joining soon.
Naturalized striker Ackerson, who returned to the Chinese Super League to join Chengdu Rongcheng, has been doing quite well this season. In the first phase of the league, he not only maintained full attendance, but also scored four league goals for his team. Such a good form also makes fans hopeful for Alan's return.
Recently, besides Ickerson, the little motorcycle Fernando also joined Shandong Taishan and scored his first goal after returning to the Chinese Super League in the last round of matches. If Aixon, Fernando and Allan can all be selected for the latest edition of the national team, I believe that the strength of the national soccer team's frontcourt can be effectively improved. Hopefully, with their help, the national soccer team can make a difference in the Asian Cup!
