As the Chinese Super League (CSL) transfer season nears its dawn, the big boys have stepped onto the track of recruiting new stars. Beijing Guoan's urgency is clear, after all, they've had a few flashes of success in their AFC Champions League campaign. Especially with the departures of Ademi and De Souza, Suarez is in dire need of a suitable successor in the lineup.
Looking back on this season, the crux of Beijing Guoan's poor performance lies in the instability of the back position. Ademi has not been able to adapt to the new environment, De Souza and Zhang Yuan are often plagued by injuries, and Zhang Xizhe has been absent for a long time due to a ban. Ji Zhongguo and Park Cheng have entered the twilight of their careers, while Gao Tianyi and Li Ke have fallen far short of expectations.
Now, Park Cheng retired, De Souza and Ademi also far away. In this context, Beijing Guoan to strengthen the back position has become particularly urgent. It is worth mentioning that Guga, the Portuguese back seems to have a hard time with Beijing Guoan, and the club has already thrown an olive branch to the Avi River club. Once the player agreed, join Guoan just a matter of time.
However, Suarez doesn't seem to be satisfied with just bringing in Guga. He is eager to bring in another back. According to Turkish media outlet TV100, a Chinese Super League (CSL) team has shown strong interest in Cameroonian international Kerman. Kerman has just terminated his contract with Kayseri Sporting due to his failure to receive the salary he deserves. Now, he is a free agent. The media is speculating that the team is likely to be Beijing Guoan, the team of Cameroonian captain Ngadeu.
The profile shows that the 27-year-old Kerman, who stands at 175 centimeters tall, is a versatile midfielder capable of playing as a forward, forward and back. He is technically distinctive with excellent footwork, precise passing, physicality and excellent tackling. This season, Kerman has made 13 appearances for Sporting Kayseri, contributing two goals and several assists. He is valued at €2.5 million in the Der Spiel.
Although TV100 did not explicitly state that Beijing Guoan is interested in bringing in Kerman, considering Li Ming's preference for foreigners from the Turkish league and Beijing Guoan's relationship with Engadeu, this team could very well be Kerman's next stop. It's worth mentioning that Kerman is currently a free agent, so Beijing Guoan won't have to pay a transfer fee to get him.
If Kerman and Guga join Beijing Guoan, the team's midfield strength will undoubtedly jump to the top of the Chinese Super League. Kerman and Guga will also have the strength to play alongside Zhang Xizhe and Zhang Yuning to help Beijing Guoan win the championship.
