Sichuan Jiuniu new season outlook
Last season, Sichuan Jiuniu soared to the top of the league, winning the Central League and returning to the Chinese Super League. Behind the team, City Football Group controls most of the shares, which owns many teams around the world, from Manchester City in the English Premier League to Girona in La Liga, to Melbourne City in Australia, and even New York City in the American Football League, all of which show the magnitude of its soccer territory. Sichuan Jiuniu, has become the only foreign-controlled team in the Chinese Super League in the new season. The strong City Group will provide sufficient financial support to Sichuan Jiuniu, helping the team to recruit in the transfer market, and strive to stand out in the relegation battle of the new season and strive to take root in the Chinese Super League in the long term.
Hong Kong international soccer player An Yongjia, who used to play for Guangxi Pingguo Ha Loud and Clear in the Central League A, has seen his contract expire at the end of last season, according to Soccer Daily. An Yongjia had an eye-catching performance in last season's Central League, scoring 15 goals and winning the Central League Silver Boot Award. In order to retain the star, the club offered a top salary contract in the Central League. However, An Yongjia, who has his sights set on a higher platform, has decided to turn down the contract extension and leave the club as a free agent. According to soccer blogger "Leicester City Fox" microblogging revealed that the Hong Kong international footballer will join the Chinese Super League newcomers Sichuan Jiuniu, which has become the first signing in the off-season Chinese Super League.
With the promotion of Sichuan Jiuniu, Sichuan fans are looking forward to the Sichuan derby in the new season. However, JiuNiu club does not plan to stay rooted in Sichuan for a long time. Recently, some media revealed that the Chinese Football Association (CFA) may introduce a policy that allows clubs to relocate to other places. Sichuan Nine Bulls intends to move to Shenzhen to set up their home stadium. Currently, the unfortunate relegated Shenzhen team is facing dissolution, and the Shenzhen Municipal Government welcomes the relocation of JiuNiu. Sichuan Jiuniu is expected to replace the Shenzhen club and continue the Guangzhou soccer's Chinese Super League flame. If the relocation is successful, Sichuan Jiu Niu will pick up the slack for the revival of Guangzhou soccer.
With the financial support from the Shenzhen Municipal Government and City Group, Sichuan Jiuniu will go all out in the transfer market to strengthen their squad and defend the dignity and honor of Guangzhou soccer. If the relocation to Shenzhen is successful, An Yongjia, the silver boot of the Chinese Super League, will be across the river from Hong Kong, which will inspire him to achieve further success. We look forward to more Hong Kong players joining the Chinese Super League to promote the exchange and development of soccer talents between the three places on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
