In the ever-changing soccer world, Shenhua Club today unveiled the mystery of the 2021 season, not only announced the new season's first-team lineup of family photos, but also heralded a journey that will soon kick off. Next Monday, the team will hold a marching ceremony, and then embark on a bus to Gusu Taimei Xiangguli Hotel, marking the official start of the 2021 Chinese Super League season.
With the whistling official announcement of Jin Yangyang and Xue Qinghao, Shenhua's big list of first-team players for the new season is fixed at 32 valiant warriors. They are: Ma Zhen, Eddie, Bi Jinhao, Jin Yangyang, Zhu Chenjie, Feng Xiaoting, Qian Jie to, Zhang Lu, Adrian, Moreno, Yu Hanchao, Wu Xi, Zhao Mingjian, Yang Xu, Li Yunqiu, Bassogo, Wang Yi, Zeng Cheng, Jin Xinyu, Zhu Baojie, Joniqi, Bo Jiajun, Peng Xinli, Qin Sheng, Li Shuai, Cao Yunding, He Longhai, Xue Qinghao, Wang Haijian, Zhu Yue, Sun Shilin and Wen Jiabao. Among them, Shenhua has a full complement of five foreigners in the team, making the team unique among the top 16 in the Chinese Super League.
Among these 32 players, veterans aged 30 and above occupy 20 seats, and their rich experience and stable form are valuable assets of the team. However, with the increase of age, their body recovery speed is relatively slow, which is also a problem that can not be ignored. In the new season, how to let the veterans keep their fighting strength has become a big challenge for Shenhua.
In the family photo released today, the photographer cleverly placed three soccer balls in front of the camera, signifying all three points and wishing the team excellent results in the new season.
With only four days left, Shenhua will be staying at the Gusu Taimei Xiangguli Hotel, the site of the Gusu tournament, to begin a month-long closed-door training and competition. This hotel is no stranger to Shenhua, last year, before the start of the league, the team was here for 10 days of closed training, stayed in Building 6. Last season, the second stage of the league's championship group, Shenhua from Dalian to Gusu, and Luneng stayed together in the hotel's Building 9.
In the first phase of this season's league, Shenhua was placed in the Gusu Division with strong teams such as Beijing Guoan, Shanghai Harbor, Hebei, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, Dalian People's, Wuhan and Changchun Yatai. Based on last season's results, Shenhua, as the third-placed team in the Gusu Division, chose to stay in Building 5. Beijing Guoan chose to stay in Building 8 last year, and Shanghai Seaport chose Building 6, which is also the building that the Chinese men's and women's soccer teams chose to stay in. For the women's Olympic soccer tournament, both the Chinese women's soccer team and the South Korean women's soccer team are staying in the red zone, so Shenhua and Seaport will not be able to move in until the two buildings have been fully decontaminated.
