On February 4, an official notice from the Football Association shocked the football world: the Chinese B team, Yunnan Yukun, successfully qualified for the 2024 season of the professional league.
Recall that a month ago, on the night of January 29th, the CFA unveiled the access list for the 2024 professional league season. Surprisingly, Yunnan Yukun, last year's top team in the second division, did not gain entry and at one point faced dissolution.
Despite Yunnan Yukun's wealth, they finished third in last season's China B League, but unfortunately failed to achieve their goal of promotion to the first division. With the Dalian people and Shenzhen team announced the withdrawal of the Central League, Wuxi Wu Hook and Jiangxi Lushan team was able to make up for the examination, Yunnan Yukun if you want to promote the Central League, the only way to wait for the Super League or the Central League of another club failed to pass the admission.
Against this backdrop, it was rumored that Yunnan Yukun was in contact with the struggling Dandong Tengyue, with the intention of using large sums of money to facilitate the dissolution of the other side. If this happened, Yunnan Yukun would be able to replace them and become a member of the Chinese League One. However, this news was reported to the relevant authorities by Dandong Tengyue's players.
Although Yunnan Yukun failed to gain access and Dandong Tengyue was not included in the list, the incident did not attract much attention in view of the seriousness of its salary arrears and widespread predictions that it would be dissolved early. However, in-depth analysis, the possibility of the two clubs being penalized at the same time should not be ignored.
