With the second transfer season and registration window approaching in the domestic soccer market, we will witness a wave of player movement and the league's battle will continue to burn. In this wave of transfer frenzy, heavyweights such as Alan, Dai Weijun, Zhang Xiuwei and Li Xuepeng are in the spotlight. Alan's transfer negotiation with Qingdao Hainiu has reached a preliminary agreement, and he is about to return to the field and unveil his uniform in Qingdao. And Li Xuepeng's joining the team makes the road to the Super League brighter for Guangxi Pingguo Ha Loud and Clear in the Central League.
The 27-year-old Zhang Xiuwei is at the peak of his career, but his form has been a mystery due to a year of inactivity. Nevertheless, Qingdao Manatees are keen on him. With the pressure of relegation on the Hainiu team, Zhang's arrival looked to be a foregone conclusion. However, in a reversal of the plot, Zhang Xiuwei, after joining the Qingdao Sea Cowboys general manager confirmed, has moved to Qingdao West Coast in the Chinese First Division, a sudden change reminiscent of Iguaín's transfer from Arsenal to Napoli.
In a dramatic reversal of Zhang Xiuwei's transfer, he chose to stay in Qingdao, but joined Qingdao West Coast, another Chinese League One powerhouse. The team is ranked second in the Central League, and beat Cangzhou Lions of the Chinese Super League in the AFC Cup to reach the round of 16. Shenhua will host Nantong Jiyun in the 13th round of the Chinese Super League, where newcomer Dai Weijun will make his debut, but he will have to wait until July 1, when the registration window opens, to officially represent Shenhua.
Dai Weijun's jersey number has been changed from No. 8 during his Shenzhen days to No. 9, which symbolizes the main center forward, which undoubtedly increases the pressure on him at Shenhua. Shenhua is currently second in the table, and Dai's addition to the team will fill the void left by Wu Xi's departure and help the team continue to compete with Harbor for the title.
