On March 20, 2024, the drums of war for the AFC Asian Champions League Women's Football Championship are about to beat in August. Wuhan, the winner of the last Women's Super League, will be seeded to advance directly to the group stage. According to Tonight Newspaper, Wuhan women's soccer team will be mulling over the introduction of powerful foreign aid.
Similar to the men's AFC Asian Championship, the first women's AFC Asian Championship will also be held across the year. In terms of the schedule, the qualifying rounds will start at the end of August, while the group stage will kick off in early October. The knockout rounds will officially open in March next year, and the winner will be announced in late May.
According to the tournament system, each association of the AFC can only send one team to participate in the first four Women's AFC Champions League tournaments. Wuhan will represent the Women's Super League clubs by virtue of their four consecutive Women's Super League titles. According to the current standings of the Women's Football League of each association, Wuhan has been seeded to start their journey directly from the group stage.
However, according to the new regulations, women's super teams are not allowed to bring in more than five international players this season, which creates some challenges for Wuhan's reinforcement strategy. In the National Women's Soccer Championship, Wuhan, as the defending champion, only ranked 9th, and its overall performance was not satisfactory. Looking ahead to the upcoming intercontinental tournaments, Wuhan plans to increase the introduction of foreign players in order to make a breakthrough in the Asian Championship.
