The opening day of the new Chinese Super League season is still up in the air, with players experiencing a succession of changes that have cast a cloud over the prospects for the start of the new season. The Super Cup is scheduled to kick off on April 8, with Shandong Taishan facing Wuhan Sanzhen. The start of the new Chinese Super League season is expected to be a week after the Super Cup, on April 15, according to Beiqing Sports. The national team will return home immediately after completing warm-up matches at the end of March, and each international player will also return to their respective families to prepare for the match.
Last season, although the Chinese Super League increased to 18 teams, but the team turnover is frequent, the situation this season is also the same, access time has been repeatedly delayed. According to the North Youth Sports reported that the new season of the Chinese Super League will be reduced to 16 teams, meaning that there will be two teams disbanded, the Football Association decided not to carry out replacement, the new season of the Chinese Super League would rather be vacant, the first batch of delinquent lists, many of the Chinese Super League team did not see its name, has been in the storm, the situation is difficult to reverse.
Among them, Chengdu Rongcheng has resolved the dispute and has no worries about access for the new season, with the focus shifting to Shenzhen and Guangzhou. The two teams were excluded from the access list due to unpaid wages. Up to now, the two teams have not yet found a solution, before the news announced the dissolution, Guangzhou and Shenzhen are still looking for ways to solve the financial difficulties, the current situation is difficult, but the two teams are still training normally, retaining a glimmer of hope.
Shenzhen team faces numerous disputes, including foreign and domestic players. Dai Weijun has become the center of attention for international players. He has filed for arbitration. In addition, the team's general manager Ding Yong was also taken away, Shenzhen team relegation hope is slim. Other teams also coveted numerous players, with Dai Weijun and Yuan Mincheng becoming popular transfer targets. Under the leadership of Li Weifeng, Guangzhou City struggled to stay in the relegation last season, but the share reform is progressing slowly. Similar to Shenzhen, we may just have to hope for a "miracle".
March 20, is the final deadline for access to the Premier League, but the Football Association seems to have turned a blind eye, next week will be announced the final access list, which means another week of extension. The FA move is really helpless, if the strict implementation of the time, fear that more than two teams will be dissolved and can not enter. Guangzhou team is difficult to make up for the reduction of the Chinese Super League to 16 teams, the relegation quota, timetable, etc. will be affected, some teams are facing dissolution, the signing of the problem has yet to be resolved.
Beijing Guoan brings in power players to return to the championship and is expected to host the opening ceremony. Although Shandong Taishan is facing many problems, the team has a solid foundation and the whole is not affected. Wuhan Three Town is preparing for the game in a low key, and the target of the new season is unknown. Teams such as Dalian Ren, Qingdao Hainiu, Cangzhou Lions and Nantong Zhiyun will compete for the relegation spot. If only one place is reduced, the pressure of competition will be greatly reduced. Whether or not to revert to 18 teams next year is still an unknown. The Chinese Super League should start as early as possible to complete a full season.
