Dating back to June 12, Shanghai Jiading Huilong soccer team welcomed a new first team head coach - Yang Lin. The change means that former head coach Li Yi Nan has been eclipsed.
The Wuxi Wuhu Football Club also unveiled its new managerial candidate - Li Yi - on the same day that it announced Wei Xin's departure. More interestingly, Yang Lin had coached Wuxi Wuhu before Wei Xin returned to the team, both of which were in the relegation zone and swapped coaches early in the season.
It is worth noting that Wuxi Wuhu has had two head coaches leave this season. And on the evening of June 6, Guangzhou Football Club also announced that Liu Zhiyu will no longer serve as the head coach of the first team, followed by El Salvador to take over the baton.
The Jiangxi Lushan soccer team also experienced a coaching change at the end of May. Former head coach Liu Pingyu is no longer at the helm of the coaching staff and has switched to assisting in coaching; while Brazilian coach Bené Lima has become the new head coach.
Compared to Jiangxi Lushan soccer team's transition from local to foreign coach, Nanjing City Football Club has gone the opposite way. on May 23, Cao Rui was appointed as the new head coach, replacing Spanish coach Oscar.
To summarize, seven teams have replaced eight head coaches in the Central League this season. Most of the dismissed head coaches are from Super League or relegation teams, which reflects the fierce competition and great pressure in the Central League. We will see if the coaching seats will continue to change as the league progresses.
