Rosa, the 28-year-old Brazilian-Portuguese dual national, arrived in Shanghai on March 8 to begin his 14-day medical quarantine. Yesterday evening, he had arrived in Tianjin by high-speed train to begin his one-week self-quarantine. Although winger Rosa has yet to complete the full process of signing a contract with Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, his "next stop" since his departure from Israel's Tel Aviv Workers is undoubtedly Tianjin, and his professional goal is clearly to play for Jinmen Tigers in the Chinese Super League this season.
Rosa has bounced around multiple teams in his career, has UEFA Cup experience and remains highly active on social media. This activity has made him the center of attention for Tianjin fans, who have been able to keep up to date in real time with Rosa's travels, his quarantine, and all the developments that have taken place since the end of his quarantine. It is calculated that Rosa will complete all quarantine processes and begin his return to training by the end of this month.
While strictly enforcing the rules on epidemic prevention and control, Jinmen Tigers FC is working hard to ensure that the team prepares for and brings in reinforcements in a safe manner. Inevitably, there are some challenges in the process, especially due to multiple factors, the entry of foreign aid and foreign coaches have been delayed compared to the original plan. For example, it was rumored that Spanish defender David Andujar, who has received a lot of attention lately, arrived in China on Tuesday, but this news has not been confirmed and is more like a good expectation of the fans. We are all waiting for the arrival of foreign coaches and foreign aiders, the addition of internal reinforcements, and the finalized plan for the new Chinese Super League season....... During this long wait, although there is still uneasiness among the Zimmen Tigers, everything is moving in a positive direction compared to last year's hasty and difficult preparations for the tournament.
