Shenhua's reinforcement program for the new season is in danger of being turned upside down by the FIFA ban. Since the beginning of March when Shenhua assembled at the Kangqiao base to prepare for the new campaign, trial players have been joining the team one after another to be examined by the coaching team. With the transfer of goalkeeper Li Shuai and coaching change, the main foreign center back Jonic has left the team, while the former Changchun Yatai goalkeeper Shi Xiaotian and Shandong Taishan defender Li Songyi's joining has been basically finalized, and the relevant transfer formalities have also been completed.
However, in order for a new recruit to represent his new club, he not only needs to complete the transfer procedures, but also needs to complete the registration in the member associations. The current epidemic in Shanghai is severe, and from the end of March to the beginning of April, many neighborhoods continue to be closed and controlled, and most companies have suspended their operations, resulting in Shenhua not being able to send anyone to the Football Association for registration. Coinciding with the Chinese Football Association will be this season's Super League transfer registration of the first window from the original April 15 postponed to April 29, therefore, although Shenhua has been Shi Xiaotian and Li Songyi transfer procedures, but did not immediately for them to register in the Football Association.
Unexpectedly, the sky is the limit. FIFA recently issued a global ban, prohibiting Shenhua to register new players. It is reported that Shenhua in the ban before the release of Li Songyi and Shi Xiaotian for the transfer formalities, the follow-up of the two can be registered, but also need to wait for the Chinese Football Association and FIFA's communication results. If FIFA does not recognize, Shenhua's new season attraction and preparation plan will be seriously affected.
