With only three days left before the summer transfer window opens, most of the clubs in the Chinese Super League have seen the first results of their attraction efforts. Two of the transfers that have attracted the most attention are related to two national team members. The first is new midfielder Dai Weijun, who has regained his free agency after his dispute with Shenzhen was resolved. He has already completed his medical and signing procedures at Shenhua, and it is expected that fans will be able to see Dai Weijun make his return debut in July's matches, barring any surprises.
The other player is 34-year-old international Allan, who has not had a good return to the Brazilian league, neither getting recognized nor getting a chance to play. As a result, Allan has moved back to the Chinese Super League as well. Of course, he needed an accepting team. After all, his old team Guangzhou has entered China's first division without enough money to support the assistance, so Allan is also looking for a new foothold.
At this time, the promotion horse Qingdao Hainiu continued to improve the front line of the attack, and Alan has become the club's main recruitment target. The two sides entered the negotiation phase very early. However, during this time it involved player treatment and other contractual issues, so the negotiation process was relatively protracted and fans have been waiting for news.
Before the summer, the exchanges between the two sides finally came to fruition. According to informed media reports, Qingdao Sea Bulls reached a preliminary agreement with Alan. The latter accepted a contract with the Sea Bulls. After Eckerson and Fernando, Alain will also return to CSL. these three belong to different teams. Rongcheng and Taishan are both at the championship level, while the Manatees are a relegated team, which predisposes the three to different tasks.
Alan joined the team to show his role more on the offensive end, and only by scoring more goals, especially in the key battle of relegation, can Alan show his value. However, compared to previous Guangzhou teams and Guoan, Hainiu's playing style is different. The midfield will not provide more support to Alan, who sometimes needs to rely on his individual ability to solve the attacking problems. Therefore, it will instead pose a greater test for him.
When playing against strong teams, Manatees usually adopt the tactical play of defensive counterattack. As the forward line needs speed, 34-year-old Alan is no longer good at this skill. Therefore, since they decided to bring in Alan, Manatee's coaching staff needs to develop a more suitable lineup and style of play for him, in order to help him get more chances in the penalty area. Only then will the team be able to maximize the player's value.In 2015, Alan joined the Guangzhou team and made 113 appearances on the pitch with his outstanding performance, scoring 61 goals and contributing 32 assists.
