Beijing Guoan refreshes squad, locks in Taishan star and hunts for Sanyang generals
In the latest sports program Soccer 100, guest Wang Yi and host Wei Yidong disclosed the latest development of Beijing Guoan. It is reported that Guoan has successfully signed former Shandong Taishan star Fang Hao, who will officially wear Guoan's uniform when the winter transfer window opens. Fang Hao has just been included in the Chinese national team's Asian Games roster. Despite making only three appearances as a substitute for Taishan last season, he scored eight goals in the U21 League and was honored as the top scorer. Fang Hao even showed his goal-scoring talent when he faced Thailand in the U21 national football team's confrontation with the Dubai Cup.
Regarding the introduction of foreign aid, Soccer 100 also revealed some information. Guoan will probably give up Dablo, but since he has a long-term contract with the team, the specific way to terminate the contract needs further discussion. Guoan is aiming to bring in three foreigners, targeting the center back, midfield and double back positions. Given the departure of Memisevic, Guoan is in dire need of a foreigner who can play in the center back. However, the program did not reveal the potential candidates for Guoan's reinforcements.
Where does the road to return for Harbor players go from here?
In the new season, Shanghai Seaport will not only have to deal with the challenge of finding a new partner for Wu Lei, but also the return of loaned out players. Last year, Seaport sold out in the transfer window, and now that most of the loaned out players' contracts have expired, they will be returning to Seaport, including He Hubu, Fu Huan and Chen Binbin. He Hubu quickly became the core of the team after his loan to Yatai, while Fu Huan won the Central League title with the help of Kunshan FC, and Chen Binbin had no chance to play in the J3 League in Japan.
Even though these players have completed their loan returns, they still have to pass the test of their new coaches. At the moment, the seaport has not yet decided on a new coach, which is the biggest challenge it is facing at the moment.
