Recently, the soccer world in China has been in turmoil, with the Football Association (FA) and the national team in serious trouble, suspected to be involved in gambling, match-fixing and corruption. Fans are deeply disappointed, and their confidence in the national soccer team and the Football Association has suffered a severe blow.
However, under this wave of turbulence, there are still quite a number of quietly dedicated footballers. Not long ago, the young players of our national team performed well in the U20 Asian Cup, and the U20 team won the praises of the fans by making a number of successes in the tournament, and even making the strongest teams, such as South Korea and Japan, feel the pressure.
In fact, Chinese soccer is not hopeless. Recently, Gao Hongbo, who is highly anticipated by fans, has been rehired by the Football Association and will be promoted to a key position to help the Chinese Super League and promote the rise of Chinese soccer.
According to media reports, the FA has recently made a major appointment that is closely related to Gao Hongbo. Prior to this, Gao Hongbo has been working on youth training, including the organization of soccer leagues. Now, he has been officially rehired and has been revealed to have been appointed as the head of the CFA's preparatory team for the preparation of the Chinese Super League related leagues.
Although some fans think that this position is not important, it is not. The development of the Chinese Super League involves all levels of the league and has delivered a large number of talents to Chinese soccer. The FA gave this important task to Gao Hongbo, valuing his contribution to youth training and believing that he is capable of developing a talent development program.
Obviously, the Football Association has high hopes for Gao Hongbo. With the exposure of his position as the head of the preparatory team, it is widely believed that the Association will learn from the management experience of the Chinese Basketball Association, to achieve the marketization of the league and professionalization. If under the leadership of Gao Hongbo, Chinese soccer can realize the marketization of the professional league, the Association will be expected to let go of the Chinese Super League will usher in a better opportunity for development.
Gao Hongbo has a huge responsibility on his shoulders and I hope he is up to the job. In terms of the importance of the position, his responsibilities even surpass those of his predecessor Cai Zhenhua. Therefore, we expect Gao Hongbo to continue to work hard and become the head of CFA in the future.
