The deadline set by the Chinese Football Association (CFA) for teams to submit progress reports on the handling of salary arrears is coming up on the upcoming July 18th. Soccer reporter Lumi disclosed the latest developments of five teams in the Chinese Super League on air. She revealed that Chengdu Rongcheng, Tianjin Jinmen Tiger, Henan Songshan Longmen, Changchun Yatai, and Wuhan Sanzhen have no wage arrears problems, and gave a detailed account of each team's home stadium site selection.
Chengdu Rongcheng: It has been analyzed that there is up to 90% probability of having the home stadium in Phoenix Hill, with Shuangliu Stadium as an alternative.
Tianjin Jinmen Tigers: It is expected to continue to use the Water Drop Stadium, and the club is actively negotiating with the government and the Sports Bureau to resume the home-and-away match system.
Henan Songshan Longmen: first choice Navigation Stadium, second choice Luoyang Stadium. Currently, the team has submitted applications to both Luoyang and Zhengzhou. The Nautical Stadium has been inspected by the CFA, and the key to approval lies in the decision of the local government. The stadium's turf is in good condition and only needs minor seat repairs.
Changchun Yatai: The municipal government has approved the resumption of the home-and-away system, and the home field has been determined to be Changchun Stadium. The Football Association has inspected the stadium and the club is working hard to get fans to attend the matches. Yatai has no history of unpaid wages and coach Chen Yang's position is relatively secure.
Wuhan Three Towns: The home stadium is expected to be located at the Chaokou Sports Center, which is currently waiting for the local government to complete the final approval process.
