On April 8, Chengdu Rongcheng officially announced the arrival of naturalized international player Ekson yesterday. The Japanese media "Yahoo Japan" wrote an article titled "Chinese International Striker Ixon Officially Moves from Gremio to Chengdu Rongcheng", the player scored 122 goals in the Chinese Super League, reported this.
Here are some comments reported by Japanese fans:
Fan A: I remember from 2013 to 2015, Elkeson was always a threat on the pitch, but in the Asian qualifiers for the World Cup in Qatar, he was a completely different player and didn't perform as well as he used to.
Maybe it's because of age, weight gain, and playing in a low level Chinese league for a long time. It's hard to say exactly why, but the previous Elkeson will never come back.
Fan B: He's been mediocre at Gremio as well, and it would be a good thing if he could still be wanted by a Chinese team right now.
Fan C: Although the level of the CFL is very low, it's not a reflection of his ability to have the kind of results he has.
Fan D: He was a member of Guangzhou Evergrande, and in fact J-League teams could consider bringing him in at a low price.
Fan E: Go for it and try to play for a European team.
