With the national football team to Dubai, is expected to June 16 at the latest before departing for home, the players need to follow the domestic anti-epidemic measures after returning to the country, through a long period of medical isolation observation, the resumption of the Premier League seems to be facing a delay in the projected date of the start of the tournament may be postponed to mid-July. Considering the possibility of the national soccer team to qualify for the 12-team tournament and the time constraints, the schedule of this season's Chinese Super League may also be forced to shorten, and whether it can complete the 30 rounds of matches has become an unanswered question.
According to the previously announced schedule, the Chinese Super League (Round 6) was scheduled to restart on June 21st. However, with the national football team's trip to the UAE, many international players will face a real challenge: after the completion of the Top 40 on June 15 (provided that the Group A matches are not further postponed), they will have to wait until June 16 at the earliest before they can depart for their home countries. After returning home, they will have to undergo an epidemic inspection and a long period of medical quarantine. As a result, it will be difficult for the Chinese Super League to restart on June 21 as scheduled.
According to informed sources, it seems that the possibility of delaying the restart of the Chinese Super League is greater. On the one hand, Guangzhou City, as one of the two major Chinese Super League tournaments, the epidemic situation is grim, the organizers and tournaments need to protect the lives and health of personnel in the first place, careful consideration of restarting the matter; on the other hand, the international footballers return to their home countries, such as a long period of quarantine, the organizers need to wait for players to return to the team in good health and then restart the league from the point of view of fair competition.
As of May 31, discussions on related matters are still ongoing. However, from the time projection, once the re-launch of the Premier League is delayed, then the specific start date may have to be postponed to mid-July.
