The Super League competition is about to start this week. Despite some difficulties rumored during the preparation of some teams, with the joint efforts of investors, management, coaching staff and players, all participating teams still played as scheduled. Among them, Guangzhou City and Kunshan failed to participate because they failed to solve the rigidity problem and could not stay in the league to compete. Compared with the past, the number of teams with championship strength has increased this year. In addition to the three towns and Taishan that won the championship last season, Harbor, Guoan, Rongcheng and Zhejiang have improved significantly and have the power to make a move.
As a veteran powerhouse, Taishan has performed consistently over the past three seasons, with a continued desire for the title, and the transfer period will prove it in action, with 34 generals making their debut in 2023 in the traditional Taishan prayer, and the official announcement of the emergence of seven new assistants, Sun Guowen, Tong Lei, Hu Jinghong, Fei Nanduo, Liu Shibo, Li Yuanyi, and Huang Zhengyu, to cover all three lines.
Apart from Liu Shibo, the other six have competed for major positions. The addition of Fernando rewrites the history of Taishan bringing in international players. Although he is still lacking in physical fitness, outsiders believe that Fernando will rely on his talents to return to the top. According to statistics, a total of 33 Tarzan climbers made their debut. Although Delgado also climbed Mount Tai, they were unable to register due to the limited quota of foreign players. There were also two familiar faces who did not show up, and two international players, namely 30-year-old Kim Kyung Do and Wu Xing Han, which actually matches the previous rumors.
Currently, Jin Jingdao is no longer on the registration list for the new season due to the possible retirement of the international player, and Wu Xinghan can come back, mainly depending on his personal disputes can be properly resolved, after all, no club likes a problem player, let alone want to be affected by off-field disputes, so Wu Xinghan needs to give an answer as soon as possible. According to the rules, clubs in the Chinese Super League can register a maximum of 35 players, so Taishan still has two prime seats, namely non-U21 players and U21 players.
It is speculated that Wu Xinghan has a chance, while young players such as Abdul Meat Suli, Chen Zhexuan and Yu Jinyong are also expected to give an answer after Hao Wei's coaching staff weighs in. Compared to last season, the biggest loss for Taishan is the departure of Jin Jingdao. The overall age of the foreigners has increased by one year, which may lead to a decrease in Taishan's ability to intercept and switch from defense to offense in the midfield. However, the addition of Tong Lei and Sun Guowen will increase the strength of the two wings, making the sides a new major attacking channel for Taishan.
