As of today, 17 of the 18 teams in the Chinese Super League have kicked off their preparations for the new season. Hebei, however, remains a mystery. As a team that managed to enter the title race last season, it is still a mystery whether it can debut in the Chinese Super League this season.
According to the news, among the teams that have started preparations for the assembly, the Guangzhou team has officially assembled since March 6th. Although the team is currently young players as the main force, but for the new season and future planning has a clear plan. Even if the enterprise investment is limited, the club did not sit back and wait for death, has recently completed a number of investment, through the self-blood, to broaden the living space. Chongqing team has not clearly announced the assembly, but there are already more than ten players arrived in Yanghe base, under the leadership of the Chinese coach to prepare for the new season. There is even news that head coach Zhang Wailong has arrived in China on the 10th and started to receive isolation. Although the club is still waiting for the final decision, but the daily training has not been affected.
In contrast, the Hebei team is in a more dire situation, with no news of any assembly so far. Some of the players have returned to the team, international player Wang Qiuming has been training with Tianjin Jinmen Tigers for a long time, and although he still has a one-year contract with Hebei, Wang Qiuming has given up his contract and is more likely to play in his hometown. Veteran Hu Rentian is also looking for a new home. Yin Hongbo said via social media that he is training alone in Sanya to keep up his form.
Head Coach Kim Jong-Oh is still in South Korea waiting for news of his return to the team. Kim Jong-Fu has not yet been notified of his return to China. When communicating with the team, the old Kim made it clear that whenever the club exists, he will return to China and fight alongside the team.
Informed sources revealed that the Hebei team share reform has long had a clear program, but in the specific promotion of the lack of strength, the relevant policies have always remained on paper. Sources said that if the share reform can not be successfully promoted, Huaxia Wonderful Group may continue to independently operate the club, but the scale of investment is limited. Hebei team is likely to give up all the veterans, following the model of the Guangzhou team, with young players as the main team.
