With the warmth of the winter sun, the Chinese Super League kicked off on January 10th with the official unveiling of the Model of Discipline for the 2023 season, and former Shenhua defender Yan Xinli was honored, even though he has already bid farewell to the team.
Looking back at Yan Xinli's 2023 season at Shenhua, he has shown remarkable consistency. In 27 rounds of matches, Yan Xinli was solid and never drew a red, which is unique among Chinese Super League defenders; even more rare is that he did not receive a yellow card in more than 2,000 minutes of matches in the whole season.
Below are Yann Sinclair's detailed stats for the 2023 season:
-- Played a whopping 2,136 minutes, which was third on the team;
-- Successfully completed 23 steals, becoming the team's third-leading contributor on the defensive end;
-- totaled 1,075 touches, again third on the team;
-- Solidified the team's backcourt with 55 clearances.
