Since Meizhou Hakka's success in the Chinese Super League, Liang Xueming's playing time has suffered a significant slide. Last season, he only made two league starts, posting one goal and one assist. However, at the beginning of the preparation for the new season, he was dropped from the club's participation list. Although Liang Xueming is in his prime, skillful and experienced, it does not seem difficult for him to seek a place in the lower reaches of the Chinese Super League or the Central League. But sadly, he is now in the training ground of China's championship division, Guangzhou Shadow Leopards.
Guangzhou Shadow Leopards, a billion-dollar powerhouse invested in by Guangzhou Automobile and seven other companies, has hired former international soccer player Li Bing to take charge of the coaching staff, and is aiming for a quick promotion. Against this backdrop, it is not entirely impossible for Liang Xueming to continue to play for Guangzhou Shadow Leopards. This is not only because of his deep affection for his hometown team and his expectations for its growth, but also to avoid the risk of salary arrears that he might encounter at a well-funded club, even though it would require him to play in a lower league for several years.
