In the past year, China's women's soccer team studying abroad has given the outside world new hope for improvement. The number of international players studying abroad once exceeded 10. Except for the goalkeeper, all other positions can form a set of starting positions, and Tu's growth has also made up for the center forward position that the team has been lacking before. Of course, studying abroad is a complicated process in itself, which is related to individual efforts, eligibility, transfer negotiations, and sometimes some coincidences. Therefore, it is not easy for the Chinese women's soccer team to study abroad.
However, while the world was expecting further expansion of the overseas army, news of abandonment came out of nowhere. The latest official announcement of the Shanghai Women's soccer team is the return of two international players, Tang Jiali and Xiao Yuyi. If the former could not continue to understand due to visa reasons, then the return of Xiao Yuyi will surprise the outside world. After all, they only joined in November 2022, only three months ago. For a new recruit, he didn't even make it through the acclimatization period.
The Shanghai women's soccer team has given an explanation for Xiao Yuyi's return. On the one hand, when Xiao Yuyi went abroad to study, the main lineup of his new owner Adelaide United was already mature. Although Xiao Yuyi didn't give up, he couldn't play as a starter judging from the results; on the other hand, Chinese women's soccer team needed to prepare for the World Cup. Xiao Yuyi decided to terminate his study abroad and return to Shanghai Women's Soccer to play more matches in order to maintain his position as an international starter. It should be said that the above explanation is a bit far-fetched and does not reflect logic.
Firstly, with any new boss, the main squad will mature and as a new aid must show performance, which is not only abroad, but even in the domestic league transfer, as a professional player, will not be considered; secondly, the intention is to participate in the World Cup, but the foreign players are working hard, and the above reasons as a reason to give up studying abroad is really far-fetched.
Finally, as the first Chinese women's soccer player in the Australian Premier League, 27-year-old Xiao Yuyi should set an example for future generations. She should not give up on the position and injury factor. It's a surprise to the outside world that she gave up after just three months. On the contrary, Wu Chengshu, who also went to the Australian Premier League, suffered a serious fracture but persisted after a long-term injury. Now back to the field of play, deserves the respect of the outside world.
