In this team, there are both veterans and rookies with unlimited potential, who are vying for a place in the team by virtue of their outstanding performance. In terms of the introduction of local players, Jinmen Tigers emphasize on the cultivation of young talents, and 21-year-old midfielder Wu Hao Min is one of the best.
As one of the best of the local rising stars, Wu Haomin showed amazing potential and strength on the field last season. His blocking and stealing abilities on the defensive side were impressive, while his passing and ball handling skills on the offensive side were also outstanding. Coach Yu Genwei was full of praise for his performance and believed that he would become the representative of "potential stocks" in the new season. Unsurprisingly, Wu Hao Min will be given more chances to appear in the upcoming winter training and matches in order to improve his game.
Apart from Wu Haomin, another rising star from the Tsimshatsui Tigers' youth camp will also be favored by coach Yu Genwei. The 18-year-old goalkeeper, named Zhang Haoran, was honored with the Goalkeeper of the Year award after his impressive performance in the recently concluded U21 League. He impressed the audience with his quick reaction, precise judgment and stable goalkeeping skills. With his outstanding play in the U21 League, Zhang Haoran decided to join the first team for winter training. In the new season, although he may not be an immediate replacement for starting goalkeeper Fang Jingqi, he is still expected to be an important substitute for the team.
Looking ahead, we expect these two young talents to bring more surprises to Tianjin Jinmen Tigers fans in the new season.
