As the end of the Golden Autumn quietly descends, the Guangzhou team's preparation remains a mystery, the whole team seems to have fallen into a silence, a silence that chills the heart. However, in the midst of this seemingly hopeless wait, the careers of some players are quietly entering a critical turning point. One of the team's key players is nearing the end of his contract, and the proximity of his expiration date sends shivers down the spine.
According to Football Daily, Liao Lisheng's contract expired on October 31st, which means that tomorrow will be a watershed moment in his career. If the two sides fail to reach an agreement to extend his contract, then in November, Liao will officially become a free agent.
The news of Liao's contract expiration date is equally exact in the statistics of the German transfer market. However, with the team's future yet to be clarified, the possibility of a contract extension seems slim. Although Liao will undoubtedly be a target for many clubs due to his talent and experience, he will undoubtedly remain the preferred option to stay and play in his homeland if Guangzhou can pull through.
This season, after Paulinho's departure, Liao Lixiang has shouldered the team's burden and has been given a rare chance to play in his career. So far, he has made 11 appearances for the team and contributed goals for Guangzhou again after more than four years. As one of the few local players in the team, he is very popular among the fans, and everyone expects "Liao Kehan" to continue to play in the Guangzhou team.
Some other players, such as Deng Hanwen, Meifang and Huang Bowen, also have contracts that will expire in December. At present, the prospect of contract renewal is also not optimistic. For the team, the salary expenditure of local players only accounts for a small part, the real economic pressure comes from those naturalized players. Previously, celebrity journalist Bai Guohua revealed that the salary of naturalized players takes up half of the team's salary, and companies that want to take over the team need to prepare at least 2.5 billion dollars.

The Football Association is facing a common problem. Next winter transfer window, we may hear the dirge of "goodbye, never again" more than once, but as long as we can keep the team, other sacrifices will be made.
