One of the highlights of today's game is the defending champions Wuhan Sanshen. According to the Portuguese media "ojogo", 24-year-old striker Achiz, who plays for Rio Ave in the Portuguese Superliga, is about to move to Wuhan Sanzhen. The 1.87 meters tall player had a good performance in the Portuguese Super League last season, scoring 17 times and contributing 3 assists. Achiz's technical characteristics are similar to Malcolm's, with a combination of strength and speed, and a quicker start. After Malcolm's move to Saudi Arabia, Wuhan Sanzhen was in dire need of a replacement, and the addition of Aqizi solved that need. This is not only Wuhan Sanzhen's first signing of the off-season, but also heralds the start of the Chinese Super League in mid-April. Wuhan will challenge FA Cup champions Shandong Taishan for the Super Cup, and Achiez may make his debut in the final.
The issue of wage arrears in the Chinese Super League is also of concern. According to Northwestern Watchtower, seven Chinese Super League (CSL) teams have yet to pay their basic salaries for the 2022 season. The CFA has set a deadline of March 3 for approval for the new season, which runs from February 10th to March 20th. The seven teams are required to settle salary arrears within a month. Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Cangzhou Lions and other teams are under heavy pressure and may face relegation or even dissolution if they miss the access time. The number of teams participating in the new season of the Chinese Super League is still unknown, and if the three teams are unable to solve the wage problem, it is still unknown whether the new teams will be eligible for compensation or exclude these three teams from the competition.
The Dalian Ren club is also in turmoil. Under the leadership of Coach Xie Hui last season, Dalian Ren managed to get relegated, but the team lost a lot of personnel in the off-season. Players such as Sun Guowen and Tong Lei may leave the team, while Real Madrid Liga striker Lin Liangming may stay. Last season's outstanding performance of commercial hidden and veteran Yan Xiangbang will continue to play, Dalian people in the new season of the Chinese Super League journey is full of variables.
The news that the Shenzhen team is in debt crisis should not be ignored. South Korean media "Chosun Sports" reported that the Shenzhen team foreign aid Lin Caiming will be free to transfer to South Korea's K League Jeju United. Due to the impact of Li Tie's case, Shenzhen team's economic situation is worrying, owes Lin Caiming three months salary. According to FIFA regulations, Lin Caiming has the right to terminate his contract, so the transfer did not bring income to the Shenzhen team. The Shenzhen team is facing a huge debt, and the risk of dissolution or relegation has increased.
