He Longhai stepped into the world on October 8, 2001, and now, before he has passed the age of 21, he has already made a name for himself in the soccer world. According to veteran media personality Bai Guohua, when He Longhai was just 16 years old, scouts coveted his talent and were willing to pay him 30 million RMB. As a result, He Longhai earned the reputation of "Mr. 30 million".
Looking back at last season, He Longhai appeared in five games as a Shenhua player, starting three of them and recording one assist. However, it is clear that he still needs to fight hard to secure a place in the Chinese Super League.
As the future force of Chinese men's football, the U21 national team is about to take a short break for three days before they continue to put in intense training. The long-term goal is to qualify for the 2024 Paris Olympics, where they will also compete in the U23 Asian Cup. Although the chances of qualifying for the Paris Olympics are extremely slim, the team is still underpowered after all, having practiced overseas. In fact, it is doubtful whether such training can be compared to letting the players play in the Chinese Super League and the Chinese First League. Undoubtedly, the players of the U21 national soccer team have few starting positions in the league, and it is difficult to expect them to contribute to the qualification for the Paris Olympics.
