On May 1, a scene of emotion and change intertwined in the Chinese soccer world. Sichuan Jiuniu's new star, Luning, took to social media platforms to fondly recall the emotional bond he had with his old boss, Heilongjiang Bingcheng, while his path to transfer was like a symphony of ups and downs.
In Lu Ning's soccer career, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers of the Chinese Super League was the stage he used to be on. He had been training with the team for several weeks, but failed to anticipate that the addition of Xu Jiamin on the eve of the closing of the transfer window would disrupt his plans. The Tianjin Jinmen Tigers coaching staff had been concerned about Xu Jiamin for a long time, however, it was only at the critical moment that news of Xu Jiamin's transfer surfaced, which led to the Jinmen Tigers taking action in a hurry.
However, before the news of Xu Jiamin came, the joining of Lu Ning has been basically finalized by the Jinmen Tigers. The media had already witnessed the player's figure during the team's open training sessions. The coaching staff had sought his opinion on Lu Ning's stay and departure, and in the end, Lu Ning chose to bid farewell to the familiar team and start a new journey.
At the last moment of the transfer window closing, Lu Ning chose to join the Sichuan Jiuniu team in the Central League. His gratitude to the Heilongjiang Bingcheng team was overwhelming: "Although it is difficult to say goodbye, I would like to thank all the Heilongjiang fans who supported me, and Duan and Li for helping me, I wish all the best, and cheers for the new season!"
As he said goodbye to the Heilongjiang Bingcheng team, Lu Ning recalled his time there. He wrote: "In that case, let's say goodbye ...... From 2018 to 2021, it can be said to be the start of my real career. From the FA Cup and the debut of the Central League in 2019 to pounce on the point, to the relegation in 2020, and then to the 7th place in the Central League in 2021, I remember that my first year of Heilongjiang was ranked seventh, and in the last year it was also the seventh ...... It may be regarded as a small cycle. This four years happened too many things, met our respected Duan guide, Li guide and coaching staff, very grateful for their help over the years, but also met a group of good brothers, more importantly, met Harbin so good fans, thank you have been on my support and help, I hope that all is well, I believe that in the near future we will see each other again! Goodbye Heilongjiang! Let's cheer together in the new season! Fight Dragon River! Fight Nine Bulls!"
