Is Zheng Zhi set to bid farewell to the national team? It was during the March 6 AFC Champions League match between Shandong Luneng and Japan's Yokohama Marinos that Ivankovic's brilliant response sparked the debate. What exactly does this mean? Will Shao Jiayi and Chen Tao also leave the Chinese coaching staff? Nonetheless, Zheng Zhi's appearance on the sidelines of Shandong Luneng with Ivankovic, observing the players' performance, seemed to suggest the latter's approval of Zheng Zhi. Zheng Zhi seems to be staying in the national team coaching team. According to the FA, they intend to keep the current coaching lineup, and with the two getting along so well, it seems that Ivankovic will also choose to keep Zheng Zhi.
It is worth mentioning that, according to media personality Qin Yun, the new coach of the national soccer team, Ivankovic, will hold a meeting with the media in Tianjin on the morning of the 8th. At that time, Ivankovic will not only share his team building philosophy, but also announce the selection guidelines and objectives of the new national team.
On the 8th, Ivankovic will face the media for the first time as the head coach of the Chinese national men's soccer team. In this media meeting, he will respond to the future of the Chinese men's soccer team. Many fans are eagerly awaiting this event, after all, the Chinese men's soccer team has been through the trough, even if it is difficult to turn around in the short term, but at least to understand Ivanovic's planning can also bring a ray of hope, right?
