As the end of the autumn quietly descends, the Guangzhou team's preparation seems to have fallen into a silence, about the team assembly of any wind blowing grass has not seen the trace, so quiet to let the heart chill. However, in the midst of this silence, the wheel of time is still rolling forward, and some players are quietly approaching the end of their contracts. The one that has attracted the most attention is the key player in the team.
According to Football Daily, Liao's contract expired on October 31st and tomorrow is his last day. If he fails to extend his contract, he will officially become a free agent in November.
Data from the German transfer market also shows that Liao's contract will expire on the last day of October. However, with the team's future uncertain, it seems that the issue of contract renewal can only be put on hold for the time being. With Liao's strength and experience, I believe there will be no shortage of suitors. But if Guangzhou can get through this difficult time, I believe he is still the preferred choice to stay in his hometown to play football.
After Paulinho's departure this season, Liao Lixiang was given the opportunity to carry the load, and he seized it, making 11 appearances and scoring again for Guangzhou after more than four years. As a rare local player in the team, he has always been loved by the fans, and everyone expects "Liao Kehan" to continue to wear the Guangzhou team's uniform.
At the same time, there are many players in the team whose contracts will expire in December, such as Deng Hanwen, Mei Fang and Huang Bowen, etc. At present, it seems that the possibility of their contract renewal is not optimistic. For the team, although the salary of local players is an expense, the real pressure comes from those naturalized players. According to the famous journalist Bai Guohua, the salary of the naturalized players occupies half of the whole team, and the enterprises taking over the team need to prepare at least 2.5 billion.
Coupled with the national football team's successive losses in the World Qualifiers, the situation of naturalized players has become more and more embarrassing. How to stream them has become a common problem for Guangzhou and the CFA. In the winter transfer window next year, we will probably sigh more than once that "it is better to see each other than to miss each other", as long as we can keep the team, any sacrifice seems to be no matter what.
