In the Chinese soccer world on May 22, a bombshell detonated instantly - Coach Li Jinyu, the leader of the first division club Yunnan Yukun, announced his resignation. This sudden change came as a shock. Li Jin Yu has led the team to an outstanding performance in this season, with 7 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in 10 matches, with the number of goals scored and conceded at the top level, however, his resignation seems to indicate another way.
The official statement revealed that Li Jinyu submitted his resignation to the club for personal reasons and the club had to accept this decision after careful consideration. The club is grateful for the efforts of Li Jinyu and his team during his tenure and wishes them all the best for the future and brilliant achievements.
Li Jin Yu's departure has caused quite a ripple in the industry. If he can lead Yunnan Yukun to a breakout season, it will undoubtedly be the pinnacle of his coaching career. Looking back at the success of former national soccer coach Li Tie, it was by leading Huaxia Happiness and Wuhan Zhuoer to break through that he rose to fame. Despite the skepticism, it is undeniable that the experience of China's first division is crucial to the coaches' reputations. With this decision, Li Jinyu seems to be aiming for higher goals.
The media and fans have been speculating about Li Jin Yu's next home. There are three teams in the Chinese Super League that could be his new owners, Henan, Nantong Zhiyun and Qingdao Hainiu. Considering the situation of Qingdao Hainiu, it seems unlikely to be Li's choice. Henan and Nantong Jiyun are more likely to be his next stop.
Henan looks particularly likely in the list of potential underlings for Li Jin Yu. With the departure of Li Wei Feng, Yang Chen has taken over as Henan's deputy general manager and has been actively contacting a number of famous Chinese soccer players on the internet. The Henan team is currently dominated by local retired players, and Yang Chen and others are expected to attract Li Jin Yu to join the team.
Henan lost 1-2 to Shanghai Shenhua in the latest round of matches, but have won five in a row. There are only two games left before the Nanki cordon. With the national team's match day coming up, the situation in Nanki will be even more tense. After the 14th round of matches this weekend, we will have the national team tournament, when Henan is expected to continue winning, and Li Jin Yu may be the new coach of this team. Anything is possible, let's look forward to it together.
