Yesterday afternoon, just promoted to the Chinese Super League, Zhejiang team made it clear that this season's budget is the same as last season. This means that the Zhejiang team will participate in the Super League with the input standards of the Central League. Given that Zhejiang is a relatively healthy financial situation among the 18 teams in the Chinese Super League, it is basically predictable that other Chinese Super League clubs will be more cautious in their investment. Previously, Guangzhou has made it clear that its total budget for the 2022 season is only 15 million yuan.
With regard to the match system, the CFA had initiated the resumption of the home-and-away system, and the clubs were in favor of it. However, the recent epidemic situation has become serious again, and the plan to resume home and away matches may be forced to be suspended. At present, the tournament organizers have suspended the inspection of alternative venues for clubs at all levels. From the perspective of safeguarding the health and safety of the personnel, the tournament organizers have always put epidemic prevention in the first place during the preparation for the start of the tournament. The possibility of resuming home and away venues seems increasingly remote at present, and clubs are prepared to participate in the tournament system for a long time.
