Since Dong Yanfeng joined Chengdu Rongcheng FC last season, his performance has not met expectations. Many fans have questioned his role in the team, believing that he might just be a garnish in Chengdu Rongcheng's lineup. Coach Xu Zhengyuan seems to have reservations about Dong Yanfeng's future and he may rent him out at the right time. As for the center back position, Yang Yiming has had his ups and downs and his overall strength seems to be less than Yang Fan. Yang Fan was an international center back at the peak of his career, and has been selected for the national team several times and has had experience as a starting center back. If all goes well, Yang Fan is expected to be Chengdu Rongcheng's starting center back.
Li Yang may be a key replacement at center back for Chengdu Rongcheng. It is worth noting that Li Yang is not only capable of playing as a center back, but also as a defensive back. Coach Xu Zhengyuan can flexibly adjust Li Yang's position according to the specific situation of the game. It is worth noting that in order to join Chengdu Rongcheng, Yang resolutely terminated his contract with his old master Henan, thus earning a generous signing fee. He will compete with Hu Ruibao for Chengdu Rongcheng's third center back position in the future. All things considered, Coach Xu Zhengyuan may combine Reichert and Yang Fan as the main center back pairing, while the rest of the center backs will be on the bench for the time being.
