On November 22nd, there was a sudden change in the Chinese soccer world. Song Kai, the new head of the Football Association, announced that the construction of the professional league had entered the fast lane, aiming to reshape the management pattern of the Chinese soccer league. This news is like a spring breeze, let the Chinese Super League new life.
For a long time, the development of Chinese soccer has been seriously constrained by the chaotic phenomena of gold-dollar soccer and the controversy over neutral names, as well as frequent team dissolutions, unpaid wages, and fake gambling and blackmail problems. The FA's previous U23 policy and training arrangements for national teams have also been criticized for a lack of professionalism. After Song Kai took office, he was determined to get the league back on track.
Song Kai revealed that the Football Association is plotting to form a professional league, and this plan will be written into the Chinese soccer reform and development of the fifty articles. After the change of the FA is going all out to promote this plan, the establishment of the professional league is just around the corner.
Song Kai's statement has made the path of transformation of the CFA clearer. The establishment of the professional league will help the league's professional development, injecting a strong heart for Chinese Super League clubs such as Beijing Guoan, Shandong Taishan, Shanghai Shenhua and Shanghai Seaport, and winning the unanimous applause of fans.
Some fans said, "The league is professionalized, the Football Association to reduce the intervention, in order to move towards a healthy road. After all, the league is the foundation of soccer, its rise and fall will directly affect the level of the national team!" However, there are also fans of the past three years of the Football Association to question the work: "change soup but not change the medicine, year after year, shouting reform, but never see the effect. In contrast, Japan and South Korea's rapid development of soccer, but we are stagnant."
Some fans are even worried: "Every time the FA changes, there are always people talking about professionalization and youth training, but after so many years, Chinese soccer is getting worse and worse. Let's wait and see if Song Kai can lead the FA out of the woods and revitalize Chinese soccer!"
