Fresh blood has been injected into the leadership of the Chinese Football Association (CFA), and the new president has launched a series of remarkable innovations since taking office. The latest disclosure shows that the foreign aid policy of the Chinese Super League has undergone a drastic change, which, like a wave, has had a profound impact on the foreign aid team. Now, the Chinese Super League foreign aid policy has been aligned with Asian soccer, and the naturalized player policy will also be adjusted. Shandong Taishan team has two naturalized players, they are going to play next season, the team is expected to get rid of this season's unfair treatment under the new policy.
Song Kai, the new CFA president, is known for his practical approach and announced a series of new league policies shortly after taking office. The first was a change in the rules for the use of foreign aid in the Chinese Super League. In the past, the league was allowed to register six foreign aiders, but only five could play in each game, and only four could actually be used. After the implementation of the new policy, this ratio is adjusted to five plus one, that is, one of the six foreign aid quota must be Asian foreign aid. Registration and on the field are not limited, which is undoubtedly good news for Shandong Taishan team.
The number of players per game is no longer limited, the team can flexibly send foreign aid according to their own situation, which will improve the appearance rate of foreign aid, foreign aid itself is also a great gospel. After all, the level of domestic players in the Chinese Super League needs to be improved, and the quality of foreign aid is crucial for the team to achieve good results. At the same time, this policy is also in line with the guidelines of the AFC, Shandong Taishan team, the Asian foreign aid restrictions canceled especially favorable.
Shandong Taishan team can adjust the lineup according to the actual need. At first, Son Junho occupied the Asian foreign aid position, but now he cannot return. Currently the team has no Asian foreigner, and Choi Kang-hee may bring in a Korean foreigner to fill the vacancy next season. The foreigner can be a back or a defender, and Jadson's role will be flexible. The team is expected to improve its overall strength and add more possibilities to its AFC Champions League journey through its six foreign aid configuration.
Another new policy involves naturalized players. Shandong Taishan had personally naturalized a player, Delgado, during his loan as a foreigner. Since he has been in the Chinese Super League for less than five years, he is still considered a foreigner. In the past, Chinese Super League teams could only register one non-Chinese naturalized player. Under the new policy, both Chinese and non-Chinese naturalized players will be considered as internal reinforcements and there is no limit on the number of years. Delgado, even if he joins late, will be an inside backer next season. Both Delgado and Fernando are likely to stay in the team as long as they meet the requirements of head coach Choi Kang-hee. This is undoubtedly good news for Shandong Taishan, although the strength of the two is not as good as foreign aid, but definitely better than domestic players. If Cui Kangxi is able to train them, they will be able to bring more contributions to the team.
