China Super League (soccer league)
A number of teams in the league are in operational difficulties, and the phenomenon of unpaid wages is getting more and more serious. Renowned media personality Chen Hua has publicly published an in-depth analysis of the current Chinese soccer situation on social media.
Chenhua noted on his social media:
Chinese soccer seems to be linked to the topic of "power cuts" lately. In order to emphasize the financial constraints of the clubs, they either cannot afford to pay the electricity bill, or they save money on electricity during training.
I think this may be an over-interpretation by certain media in order to attract attention. Of course, the club's modest "complaint" is also a way to play the game with the local government, the implication being that we are already in such a difficult situation, someone has to lend a helping hand.
In fact, soccer clubs are themselves a product of the market economy and soccer reform. The enthusiasm of investing huge sums of money at the beginning will most probably be difficult to sustain in the future from the perspective of the laws of soccer. Like a gamble, the result can only be accepted.
When the clubs are burning money, the people concerned are earning millions of dollars a year but quietly making profits; and when the clubs are strapped for cash, the media will make a big fuss about the clubs' plight - behind this strong contrast, there seems to be too much hidden gaming.
Frankly, compared to the past, those well-paid

Players who are now facing interruptions in their income and have to cope with "life changes" such as divorce. This is not only part of soccer, but also part of life.
Many things have changed under the impact of the epidemic. In the future, when clubs are spending, if the salary cap system is strictly enforced, the highest annual salary of a domestic player may only be 5 million dollars before tax. I think this is exactly a process of returning to rationality.
Who does not like money? In the past, the annual income of ten million, is to enjoy the dividends of the times; now the income is reduced, but also the inevitable result of the policy adjustment. The key is that the ball market is like the stock market, as long as you really have the ability to hold on, this market will always be prosperous again one day. The past 20 years of the league market, but this is the ups and downs, up and down cycle.
Of course, we must recognize that by Guangzhou
Evergrande (name)
The golden age of Chinese soccer players making money, led by the team, is gone. Tighten your belts, save money and spend rationally, a phrase that applies not only to the soccer world, but perhaps to everyone.
