Today, heavy news came from the soccer world: our new soccer star Guo Tianyu is about to obtain a Portuguese visa within this week, and is expected to embark on his journey to the Portuguese Super League around 9...

Recall that on January 27, 2022, Shandong Taishan Football Club officially announced that Guo Tianyu will join Portuguese Premier League powerhouse Vizela FC on loan until June 30 of the same year. It is reported that Guo Tianyu is expected to get a visa this week, when he will go to Portugal to show his strength. If the performance is excellent, his possibility of staying in the ocean will be greatly increased.

However, before that, Guo Tianyu's visa issue has been pending. Despite the efforts of the CFA and Guo Tianyu's agent team, Portugal has been extremely strict in issuing visas to Chinese nationals due to its anti-epidemic policy and the principle of reciprocity. After a series of cumbersome procedures, Guo Tianyu's visa application has finally entered the final stage, only to be approved by the Portuguese National Immigration Office.

It is worth mentioning that Guo Tianyu's visa application process was quite convoluted. First of all, it is necessary to submit a double certification of criminal record, which routinely takes nearly three weeks. Secondly, the criminal record certificate must be submitted to a notary public for notarization, then certified by the Foreign Affairs Office, and finally certified by the embassy of the country of use in China. With many efforts, Guo Tianyu's visa is finally expected to be finalized.

For the upcoming journey to stay in the ocean, Guo Tianyu said: "Thank you to the fans for their support over the years. This year Shandong Taishan won the Double Crown, which is the most memorable moment in my life. Thanks to the Shandong Taishan Club and Luneng Football School for their training over the years, I will never stop on the road to excellence. In the future, I will work even harder to bring more wonderful performances to the fans!"
