The fate of the club is like being shrouded by a storm, the epidemic, payroll restrictions, expansion policy and other multiple pressures superimposed on a decade of prosperity bubble is gradually bursting, the general environment of the change in the situation so that some of the clubs in the new season to face unprecedented challenges. However, in the face of adversity, Changchun Yatai has shown a different picture.
The turning point in all of this can be traced back to Ateneo's move from the
China Super League (soccer league)
The year the league was relegated. Although there was no official and clear statement, the root cause of Ateneo's relegation was the pressure to invest. At the time, the
China Super League (soccer league)
Being at the tail end of an arms race, Ateneo has been investing more for several years in order to cope with the competition. It is rumored to be in

Relegation, at the very least, requires an investment of about 300 million RMB, and the Yatai Group, faced with an economic crisis, has struggled to sustain this investment and has had to retreat to hibernate in the Central League. During this time in the Central League, Yatai got a financial breather, and by selling players such as Ighalo and even feeding the group, the team was optimized in terms of payroll and age structure. In this context, a series of policies of the CFA is undoubtedly very favorable to small clubs, just as the boat against the current, not to advance is to retreat, and now Yatai is meeting the downstream, become healthier, and perhaps go farther. First of all, this season's relegation policy is conducive to the team's release of pressure. In the past, Yatai has been under the pressure of the league, unable to smoothly carry out the transition of the old and the new, and the middle-generation players appeared to be broken. But this season, Yatai has more space to cultivate newcomers, and is expected to play the advantage of youth training in the second half of the season. In the latest edition of the national team list, there are nine Yatai players selected for the national team at all levels, including Tan Long, Diliyimiti Land, Wang Yushen, Shi Lishan, Wei Shengquan, Luo Chi, Tong Yandong, Abdullah Adili and Fan Chao. Among them, seven U18 youngsters are produced by Yatai Youth Training. This is Yatai since the 96 golden generation, for the first time more than seven people selected for the national team, heralding the future of Yatai can be expected! Secondly, from the personnel structure point of view, this year in the transfer market, Yatai's operation is more healthy. Unlike in the past, this year Yatai has more initiative, no longer passive to other teams to send players. In the past, Yatai is often forced to send talent to other teams, but now, Yatai has become the initiative in the transfer market. Such as last year will be Sosa, Park Yang and other players who can not participate in sending to the

At the same time, a number of national coaching players have come to Ateneo for tryouts. In the past, Yatai might have kept these players, but this year it is focusing on the results of the tryouts, such as bringing the former

First header Xiao Zhi was returned after a trial, and other ready-made players like Fan Xiaodong were also sold by the team. Chen Yang, as a coach leading Yatai in his first campaign, has perhaps never fought such a rich battle. Those who couldn't stay were due to lack of strength, while those who stayed were elite. Elected to the K-League's best XI for three seasons, last year's league and AFC Champions League double golden boot Junior, Danish international Okore, and J-League's 24 goals in 48 games scoring machine Erik Lima, from the

I don't believe anyone would be surprised if, in the new season, Yatai can make it into the top six, or even have a chance to enter the title contenders group.
