In Jeju Island, South Korea, a soccer feast was quietly staged. 13 February, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers ushered in the fifth foreign player Ademi, marking the team's complete foreign aid lineup this season. In the afternoon of the third day of the first month of the Lunar New Year, the team once again assembled and embarked on a journey to South Korea to build up their strength for the Super League sprint.
Upon his arrival in Jeju Island, Ademi became a new face in the team and the Zim Tigers held a short welcome ceremony for him. Head coach Yu Genwei revealed that the team's overall preparations will be put on the fast track with the foreign aid in place.
Ademi made his debut in South Korea with the coaching team communicating with him meticulously, focusing on his fitness and style of play on the pitch. It is worth noting that Ademi's last game in the Swedish Super League took place on November 12 last year, and since then he has been in a constant state of preparation, keeping pace with the Jinmen Tigers players. Comparatively, Compagno has been consistently playing high-intensity matches due to the Romanian First Division's cross-year format.
On Jeju Island, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers pressed on with three warm-up matches and made arrangements for the next matches, with two contests scheduled for February 17 and 22 respectively.
