It's worth noting that in addition to He Xiaoqiang, there are two other former Guoan players who also spent their soccer careers at Beijing Guoan. The 22-year-old young defender, He Xiaoqiang, has been honed by Guoan's youth training system since he was a youngster, joining the club's youth team as early as 2013 and playing as a main defender in the 02 age group. However, after failing to get a chance to play for the first team, he was loaned out to Qingdao West Coast last summer.
However, at the beginning of this season, He Xiaoqiang transferred to Dalian Yingbo again. With his swift speed, excellent running ability and precise passing, he quickly became the team's main left back.
Another midfielder, Lv Peng, also has a rich soccer experience. He came from the youth training system of Dalian Shide and played for Dalian Shide and Dalian Albin. 2015, Lv Peng transferred to Beijing Beijin, and two years later, he joined Beijing Guoan, and was highly recognized by German coach Schmidt.
In the 2022 season, Lv Peng returned to Dalian and joined Dalian Ren. However, last season, the Dalian Ren club was unfortunately dissolved, and Lv Peng then transferred to Dalian Yingbo. With his excellent defensive ability and rich experience, Lv Peng quickly became the core of the team's defensive midfield and played a crucial role in bridging the gap between defense and offense.
Jin Pengxiang also has a rich soccer experience. He played for Dalian Albin before moving to Beijing Guoan. After leaving Guoan, he joined Zibo Qisheng and Guangxi Hazhong Pingguo. Earlier this year, Jin Pengxiang returned to Dalian and joined Dalian Yingbo. As a tall center back, he plays an important role in defensive organization and scrambling for overhead kicks, and thus receives special attention from manager Li Guoxu.
For the time being, the renewal of the contracts of Dalian Yingbo team with He Xiaoqiang, Lv Peng and Jin Pengxiang does not seem to be a problem. In the current tough domestic soccer environment, the opportunity to play in a high-level professional league is already very rare. Unsurprisingly, these three former Guoan players are likely to continue to show their style in the Chinese Super League next season.
