Zhang Yuning, a 24-year-old domestic striker star, the young player who traveled across the ocean in the past. He has traveled to many top clubs such as the Dutch and German Bundesliga, and was once regarded as the future star of Chinese soccer by fans with high hopes. However, he eventually chose to return to his homeland and joined Beijing Guoan.
Zhang Yuning's talent is undeniable, having made his debut in the Dutch Eredivisie at the age of 18, scoring some spectacular goals. At the national team level, he played under the leadership of Lippi, who once said of him: "Zhang Yuning is the only player in the national team who is good at running without the ball."
The teenage talent, with his talent and hard work, has been in the spotlight in the Chinese Super League. Unfortunately, after more than two seasons, Zhang Yuning has not become stronger as expected, but has been assimilated to a certain extent. While he is young and energetic, his physical fitness has become a shortcoming that restricts his development, and he often struggles to last a full 90 minutes in intense matches.
In addition to fitness issues, Zhang Yuning also faces frequent injuries. In the past three years, he suffered three serious injuries, including muscle tears and ankle ligament ruptures, and accumulated 252 days of rest. As a striker, his shooting skills have also not improved significantly, and whenever he gets a chance to shoot in the penalty area, his first choice is always a powerful shot.
As a result, many fans are beginning to worry whether Zhang Yuning will become the next Yang Xu. His hairstyle is getting shinier and shinier, but his shooting skills are getting less and less satisfactory!
