Yang Liyu has been a very optimistic player for Shanghai, and there was news in previous seasons that the club wanted to bring him in. But Yang Liyu still has a contract with Evergrande, so Shanghai can't bring him in. Last season, Yang Liyu played for Evergrande in the Chinese Super League and performed very well, bringing many key goals to the team. Unfortunately, Yang Liyu's excellent performance did not help Evergrande's relegation success.
After Evergrande was relegated to the Central League, Yang Liyu had the idea of leaving the team. Yang Liyu wanted to find a club that could develop steadily, so the ambitious SIPG, who did not owe him any salary, became his new owner. In the end, SIPG stepped in to take care of Yang Liyu. Hopefully, Yang Liyu and Wei Shihao can perform well after joining Shanghai Hong Kong and help the team win the Chinese Super League and FA Cup in the new season.
