Despite the fact that N'Gadeu still has one year left on his contract with Guoan, rumors of his departure for the new season are rife. It has been reported that the strongest team in the Saudi League has extended an olive branch to the Cameroonian defender. The Saudi league is known for its star-studded, high level of competition and lucrative income, which is undoubtedly more attractive than the Chinese Super League. If Guoan does not intend to extend N'Gadeu's contract early, there is a high probability that he will move to Saudi Arabia in the new season.
At this stage, Guga and Fabio are expected to stay in Guoan's foreign aid lineup. Fabio in the last two seasons in the Guoan front field performance is particularly outstanding, scored 14 goals and contributed 12 assists, become the team's offensive end of the pillar.
Guga has had a mixed season. At the beginning of the season, fans were expecting a lot from him, however, the actual performance has not lived up to expectations. Despite his contribution in passing and organizing the attack, Guga's defensive contribution in the midfield was clearly lacking compared to other Guoan midfielders such as Augusto and Paulinho. However, given his €550,000 transfer cost, fans should not expect too much from him.
With the departure of the three foreigners, Guoan will focus on strengthening the midfield in the new season, bringing in high-level foreign center backs to improve the defense. In the midfield, the team is in dire need of a player with stronger confrontation and sweeping ability. Ji Zhongguo and Li Ke are both leaving, and Guga doesn't really have the strength of a defensive midfielder. Therefore, Guoan needs to bring in a foreign "beast waist" that can strengthen the midfield defense.
In addition, Guoan's front position is also in dire need of strengthening. It is rumored that the club has reached an agreement with Changchun Yatai's forward Sergio, who will become the third naturalized player in Guoan's history. Serginho's arrival will significantly improve Guoan's offensive organization in the Chinese Super League. If we can bring in more local reinforcements in key positions, I believe Guoan will have the strength to win the title in the new season.
