On January 3, according to Soccer Daily, after Guangzhou entered China's first division, some insiders believe that the dismal state of Chinese soccer is closely related to the phenomenon of Guangzhou's disorderly expansion and raising the value of its players.
A former investor who left the soccer circle commented, "Evergrande's new business concept has indeed promoted a new round of development in Chinese soccer, activating a pool of stagnant water and promoting the popularity of the league. However, due to the lack of effective supervision and proper guidance, the nature of capital profitability will inevitably make them walk on the boundaries of the rules, not to mention their personal behaviors, which may have some negative impact on the overall development of soccer."
"When Evergrande was founded, it was very efficient and the decision-making mechanism was unusually fast. The club's biggest expense is that Evergrande has done a pretty good job of buying and selling players and their wages. Ten years of investing in soccer and only one really watered-down foreigner has been bought, J horse. From an investment point of view, it has been a very nice answer." The investor also made the comparison, "Reading the signing files of many state-owned clubs, most of them are described as dismal."
Coach, on the other hand, sensed: "If Evergrande privately poaching, inflate the price of foreign aid transfer market, early warning, there may not be later China and Quanjian, nor Suning. Without these furniture music department will further enhance the market, there will not be a series of restrictive policies. Without the uncontrolled expansion and enhance the value of players, these furniture music departments may not disappear. They wouldn't have disappeared and the Chinese league wouldn't have been so dismal ......"
Evergrande has also spent a lot of effort on youth training. Their scouting system and youth evaluation system is more robust than CFA. Evergrande can drop millions for good 10 year olds. I have represented many cases related to Evergrande. The arrival of Evergrande has created many rich people in the soccer circle. Therefore, I firmly believe that those who thank Evergrande in the soccer circle must be more than those who hate Evergrande." A soccer lawyer commented this way.
"Chinese soccer needs capital, but the development of soccer itself is a sport based on long-term behavior, supplemented by short-term goals. It needs benign and long-term investment of capital. It cannot be short and quick. If you achieve something, you can show your face and leave. The problem is that if you get into soccer just for yourself, without considering the interests of the industry and its overall value, the result is short-term value, not long-term value. If the industry itself is not conducive to companies improving their positive impact, then the combination of capital and soccer is the current result." A former professional manager said.
