June 15 was a day of great anticipation for Shanghai Shenhua. They finally had good news: after nearly two months of isolation, second foreign aid Bolaños would be released from isolation at noon that day and return to the team family.
If Bolaños can quickly find his form, he will undoubtedly inject a strong impetus into Shenhua's attacking power in front of the field. It is worth mentioning that the Ecuadorian international was not included in Shenhua's reinforcement plan for this season, and he had returned to his home country in advance. However, due to the club being penalized by FIFA's ban on aid, Shenhua had to temporarily change their strategy and recall Bolaños to prepare for the Chinese Super League.
Due to the recurrence of the epidemic in Shanghai, Bolaños' road back to China was exceptionally bumpy. He went through a long quarantine in Guangzhou, and after arriving in Dalian, he underwent a 7+7 quarantine observation in accordance with the requirements of the local disease control department. 8, Bolaños stayed in the hotel of the competition area, but had to be alone in the room quarantine for a week, during which he was not allowed to go out, and could not have contact with his Shenhua teammates.
As per the rules, Bolaños' quarantine will officially end at noon on the 15th, and he will meet with the full team to begin his return to training. However, due to the long isolation time, it will take some time for him to return to the field. According to team sources, it will take 10-15 days at the earliest for him to be in a position to play.
Nonetheless, Bolaños' return is undoubtedly an important personnel addition for Shenhua. His delicate footwork, comprehensive techniques and precise free kicks will bring rich changes to the team's front field tactics. (Sohu Sports Pei Li)
