They are using this training period to assess the performance of the players and start to finalize the 23-man squad for the Asian qualifiers. It is reported that goalkeeper Liu Shao Ziyang, who plays in the Austrian league, seems to be out of the picture for the Asian qualifiers.

The original plan was for Liu Shao Ziyang to accompany the team to Europe for training to observe his condition.
However, Liu Shao Ziyang's Klagenfurt team refused to release him early to participate in the national youth training. Currently, Liu Shao Ziyang has stabilized his position as the main goalkeeper in Klagenfurt's second team, which also proves that he has successfully established himself in the professional league.

It was thought that if Liu Shao Ziyang could not participate in the training, then it would be unfair to other players to include him in the 23-man list. Therefore, Liu Shao Ziyang said goodbye to the possibility of the National Youth Football Team to participate in the Asian qualifiers early.
Liu Shao Ziyang, the best goalkeeper in the U19 age group in China, attracted the attention of Bundesliga giants Bayern as soon as he debuted. Bayern offered him a lucrative contract and regarded him as a key development target. In order to give Liu Shao Ziyang more playing opportunities, Bayern loaned him to Austrian team Klagenfurt. Liu Shao Ziyang successfully locked the starting goalkeeper position of the first team with his outstanding performance in the second team.
Many fans believe that since Liu Shao Ziyang has already gained steady playing opportunities in Klagenfurt's second team, the national youth team manager

There is no need to call him up early. Waiting until the start of the Asian qualifiers to call him up will prevent him from losing his starting position at his club due to being called up by the national team and will also allow him to maintain his form in the Austrian league. Previously, Wu Lei suffered the trouble of early recruitment by the national soccer team when he played for Spaniards. Wu Lei revealed on air that Moreno, his manager when he was at Espanyol, had decided to make him a La Liga debutant. However, the early call-up by the national soccer team cost Wu Lei his chance to make his debut at Espanyol.
So it's easy to see why Wu Lei is having a hard time getting a starting role under Moreno. Fans don't want Liu Shao Ziyang to repeat Wu Lei's mistake. The national youth team is completely comfortable with keeping Liu Shao Ziyang in the starting lineup in the Austrian league, and manager

There's also no need to discard Liu Shao Ziyang because he couldn't join the training session early. A good goalkeeper is equivalent to half a team, and this saying also applies to the national youth team. At present, the National Youth Football Team really lacks suitable candidates in the goalkeeper position. If Liu Shao Ziyang is unable to participate in the Asian qualifiers, it will undoubtedly be a huge loss for the National Youth Football Team. I hope that Liu Shao Ziyang can communicate fully with the National Youth Football Team, and strive to take the last train to participate in the Asian qualifiers.
