At 23:36 yesterday, Qingdao Football Club issued an announcement through the official WeChat public account, announcing that Wu Jingui would no longer serve as the head coach of Qingdao team, and in the remainder of the season, Yang Weijian, former assistant coach of the Chinese men's football team, would serve as the acting head coach of Qingdao team.
After Qingdao's 0:3 defeat to Shanghai Shenhua suffered an unprecedented ten-game defeat in the Chinese Super League, Wu Jingui retreated and lamented at the post-match press conference that "the main problem is in the coaching staff, and it is time to adjust the coaching team."
According to Qingdao Football Club, Wu Jingui submitted his resignation to the club that night. After the club's board of directors approved his resignation request, Wu Jingui left the Suzhou division yesterday with his assistants CocoTovich, Li Chengming, Chen Zhiyuan and others.
▲ So far this season, Wu Jingui's Qingdao team has played 15 league games, only delivering 2 wins, 1 draw and 12 defeats. In the first stage of the Chinese Super League, Wu Jingui briefly left the team due to heart problems, and there were rumors at the time that he might resign as the manager of Qingdao. Although the poor performance of the Qingdao team is caused by many reasons, even if it is difficult for a smart woman to cook without rice, Wu Jingui, as the commander, is also responsible and blamed.

▲ Yang Weijian will lead Qingdao team to participate in the remaining 7 rounds of the Chinese Super League relegation group this season as acting head coach. In the 1999 season, Yang Weijian was ordered to die at the end of the remaining 3 rounds of the A League, resolutely took over the Qingdao Manatee coaching whip, and then led the team to win three consecutive victories, thus miraculously relegating successfully. This season, can Yang Weijian turn decay into magic again? Let's wait and see, wait and see!
▲ Qingdao Football Club announced that Wu Jingui was no longer the head coach of Qingdao team late at night, and many fans had fallen asleep at this time.
▲ In the case of 7 rounds of competition left in the relegation group of the Chinese Super League, Qingdao team is 3 points less than the Cangzhou Lions, Dalian Renren and Tianjin Jinmen Tigers who rank fifth to seventh, if they can stop the fall and rebound in time, they have every opportunity to declare the relegation success in advance without participating in the promotion and relegation play-offs.
Because the news of Wu Jingui's resignation was first broken out by the media familiar with him as early as noon yesterday, so yesterday afternoon, many Qingdao fans were waiting for the official news of Qingdao Football Club, but the first thing everyone waited for was the official announcement of Qingdao Manatee Football Club.
At 16:45 yesterday, the press officer of Manatee Football Club posted an announcement in the media reporter group. According to the announcement, Huang Jian no longer serves as the general manager of Manatee Football Club, and Zhongneng Group has another appointment; Zhang Dong is appointed vice chairman and general manager of Manatee Football Club, presiding over the overall work of the club.
In addition, Yin Tiesheng, the veteran coach who led manatees to the Chinese Second Division championship this season, will continue to serve as the team's head coach and concurrently serve as the deputy general manager and youth director of Manatee Football Club.
The other two deputy general managers of Manatee Football Club are Xu Yani, who is in charge of administrative office, logistics service support, and Xue Jie, who is in charge of brand management and media.
▲ Zhang Dong, who previously served as vice chairman of Manatee Football Club, officially served as the general manager of the club yesterday.
▲ Last Saturday, Huang Jian, the former general manager of Manatee Football Club, attended the Qingdao Health Tennis Series "Qingdao Zhongneng Cup" tennis tournament as the assistant to the president of Zhongneng Group.
▲ Manatee Football Club issued an announcement yesterday afternoon.
Tomorrow night at 19:30, Qingdao will play against Wuhan, who has seven more points than themselves, who defeated the Cangzhou Lions 4-2 on Sunday.
It is worth mentioning that in the quarterfinals of the Chinese Football Association Cup this season, Wuhan team once defeated Qingdao team 4:0. In that game, both teams sacrificed the "All-China Class" lineup.
For the Qingdao team, the disadvantage is that the three members of the team, Vukovic, Zou Zheng and Wang Wei, left the field due to injury in the last round of matches, and it is very likely that tomorrow night will be a sideline watch.
