In the year just gone, the Chinese soccer world has been in a state of flux. Not only were there team name changes and the introduction of the foreign aid salary restriction policy, but we also witnessed teams like Jiangsu and Tianjin Jinmen Tigers competing fiercely at the end of the season. After a lot of twists and turns, all the changes finally settled. The Jiangsu team made a historic exit from the Chinese Super League, while the Tianjin Jinmen Tigers were able to reorganize at the last minute and continue to sail in the Chinese Super League. The Cangzhou Lions, who were facing relegation, were also spared by Jiangsu's exit and will continue to compete in the Super League in the new season. Meanwhile, Changchun Yatai, who were promoted from the first division, have also joined the Chinese Super League family, and the top 16 teams of the Chinese Super League are now basically ready. The new season will be played in Guangzhou and Suzhou, with the opening match on April 20 featuring Guangzhou and Guangzhou City.
Recently, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers (formerly Tianjin Teda) also released a brand new team logo. This logo is centered on the image of the Jinmen Tigers, with the tiger's head held high and majestic.
