If it wasn't for the efforts of SIPG, Cai Huiqiang might not have been able to quickly gain favor with Shenhua after his departure. However, Cai Huiqiang spent several years at SIPG, where he was fortunate enough to work alongside renowned coaches such as Lecco and Javier. He also contributed to the team's glory in winning the Chinese Super League last season. Therefore, Shanghai fans should refrain from criticizing him for joining city rival Shenhua.
Stepping into the Shenhua first team, Cai Huiqiang will need to do a good job of adapting to the adjustment. Mao Yijun, the mainstay of Shenhua's local coaching team, will most likely continue to work alongside Cai Huijiang, helping the Shenhua team's meritorious coaches to solve their problems. We look forward to seeing Cai Huiqiang on the Shanghai Shenhua stage, showing his new style and climbing to a new peak in his career.
