Making mistakes is not unforgivable, the key lies in getting lost and knowing how to cherish them. Guo Tianyu, a former star of the Chinese men's soccer team and former international footballer, has experienced such twists and turns.
Thai Premier League club Chiang Rai United have officially announced that they have signed Chinese player Guo Tianyu for free, and he will wear the No. 18 jersey for the new season in the Thai Premier League.

Last year, the team finished 11th in the Thai Premier League (TPL), a mid-table position, and the 2024-25 season kicks off on August 9, with Chiang Rai United's first match scheduled for August 12 at 8:00 p.m. The team will have to start from the bench and work hard to integrate into the new team.

Regarding Guo Tianyu, in May 2023, Shandong Taishan's foreign aid Sun Junho was arrested on suspicion of match-fixing. Shandong Taishan then canceled his registration. Guo Tianyu's contract with Shandong Taishan officially ended in July 2023, and in May 2024, Guo Tianyu was released from prison, according to the Der Spiegel. After his release, he traveled to a training ground on the west coast of Qingdao in July to resume training and prepare for his return to soccer. This was no simple trial, as Guo Tianyu's current situation made it difficult for him to gain a foothold in the Chinese game. His training ground on Qingdao's west coast was designed to track his fitness and get back to his best form.
Guo Tianyu's career has experienced such a turnaround. Now, he has chosen to study abroad and re-launch his career. We hope that he will learn from this experience and cherish the opportunity, and at 25 years old, he still has unlimited possibilities for the future. He hopes to establish himself in the Thai Premier League and break new ground as a pivot center forward.
