March 17 Express, Dalian People Football Club officially released the recruitment information seeking first team head coach. According to Soccer Daily, as of the completion of the draft on March 16, six coaches have submitted their applications for the job, namely Li Bing, Xie Hui, Sun Wei, Guo Hui, Jia Xiuquan and Zhang Yuning. Rumors pointed out that Li Tie, the former head coach of the Chinese national soccer team, had also joined the applicants, but the claim has not yet been officially confirmed by the Dalian People's Club.
According to the plan, it is expected that in the next two days today and tomorrow, the competent panel of experts in charge of the selection will evaluate the candidates' bidding speeches via web video conference. It is reported that around March 20, the club will announce the final selection of the head coach. Judging from the strength and popularity of the enrolled coaches alone, I'm afraid some people may mistake this as nothing short of a competition for the position of national team head coach. This undoubtedly highlights the strong attraction of Dalian People Football Club after the shareholding reform.
