With the new Chinese national soccer coach Yang Kovic, naturalized player Eckerson has returned to the national team. This is a naturalized player after more than a year in the national soccer team, but the naturalized player strategy of the Chinese men's soccer team is still a complete failure. Recently, the Vietnamese media SOHA wrote an article about the frantic attack on the national soccer's naturalized player strategy. According to the Vietnamese, naturalized players are another manifestation of the "unjust" nature of Chinese soccer.
The media said, "Chinese soccer is in the doldrums and the news that Kado Golat is about to renounce his Chinese citizenship will be even more painful for them as it will remind them once again that they played an unjust role. The cost of Golat renouncing his Chinese citizenship is not high, only $250, but four years ago it cost Guangzhou Evergrande 800 million yuan after tax to get him to join Chinese citizenship, for a total cost of 1.6 billion yuan."
"Ironically, however, they did not understand FIFA's naturalization policy because Gallart did not comply with FIFA's naturalization process as he returned to Brazil to play in the meantime, interrupting his registration with the CFA. Finally, the player never played for the Chinese national soccer team. This huge investment of 1.6 billion dollars ended up making a useless player for Chinese soccer. Now, Gallart is about to return to his Brazilian nationality." Vietnamese media said.
Although the words of the Vietnamese media are hard to hear, I have to say that what they say is the truth. There are so many problems that Chinese soccer needs to reflect on when it comes to naturalized players, and it has become a huge joke in the world of soccer due to all the mistakes made during the operation, a fact that even Chinese fans must admit.
