The second stage of the 2021 chinese Super League season reignited the war, and Guangzhou still showed a strong desire to survive after losing to Beijing Guoan by one goal. Of course, fans still miss the players who have done a great job for this team. It is worth mentioning that corinthians, the traditional giants of the Bajia, officially announced that former Guangzhou and Barcelona meritorious player Paulinho signed a two-year contract with the team. He will play in the Chinese Super League next season with Guedes, Gill and Renato Augusto. What I never expected was that Luo Guofu, who was very eager to play for the Guangzhou team, was actually stopped by the "invisible hand" and could not appear. According to media person Yuan Ye's revelations, there is a network of interests behind the naturalized players, and Luo Guofu's playing in the Chinese Super League is not something he can decide.
Official: Paulinho joins "old club" Corinthians
The leaves fall to the roots, and these four words belong to Paulinho. According to foreign media sources, paulinho, a former Guangzhou team and Barca's meritorious player, joined his old club Corinthians after several twists and turns. Paulinho rose to fame at Corinthians, winning the Copa Libertadores title for the team and beating Chelsea in the Club World Cup final. Subsequently, he joined Premier League powerhouse Tottenham Hotspur without showing the strength he deserved. However, he was recruited by his mentor to the Guangzhou team of the Chinese Super League giants and achieved his legendary story. Paulinho played for Guangzhou from June 2015 to August 2017 and from July 2018 to June 2021.
He has won 1 AFC Champions League, 3 Chinese Super League titles, 2 Super Cups and 1 FA Cup for Guangzhou, becoming a meritorious player. However, Paulinho chose to leave West Asia because he could not bring his family into China in Brazil. However, because of the "backyard fire", he chose to terminate the contract with the team and return to his hometown. Now Paulinho has successfully joined the "old club" Corinthians, and he will play alongside a number of veterans of the Chinese Super League. Among them: Guedes, Gill, Renato Augusto and other players.
Uncontrollable! Luo Guofu wanted to appear but was stopped by an invisible hand
According to media person Yuan Ye's revelations, there is a network of interests behind the naturalized players, and Luo Guofu's playing in the Chinese Super League is not something he can decide. As soon as the news came out, there was a collective uproar. As we all know, the tide of naturalization hit Chinese football in 2019. The Guangzhou team bore the brunt of the attack, bringing in a number of Chinese and unrelated players for naturalization. Among them are: Jiang Guangtai, Axon, Fernando, Alain and Luo Guofu, who have put on the chinese men's football jersey. Most of them are the core players of the team participating in the "Round of 12". What I never expected was that in the second stage of the 2021 Chinese Super League, they actually parted ways.
Fernando, Alain, Gaulat and Axon, who left China and returned home in Brazil. Only Jiang Guangtai and Luo Guofu stayed in China and expressed their willingness to continue to fight for the national football team. Moreover, Jiang Guangtai and Luo Guofu were also selected for the Guangzhou team to compete in the second stage of the 2021 Chinese Super League. However, Jiang Guangtai also returned to the team smoothly after missing the first game, while Luo Guofu was exposed to the news that he was stopped by the "invisible hand" and could not represent the Guangzhou team.
As the saying goes: "The same people have different lives, the same umbrella has different handles." The championship title of Guangzhou team is what countless players have done their best to get back. However, some players are not only in a different situation than before, but even the current situation is completely different. Paulinho has been successful in many clubs, and the final choice of "falling leaves" can be said to be the perfect finale of his football career. Luo Guofu still has a "World Cup dream", and he hopes to contribute to the Chinese men's football team in the remaining "Round of 12". Unfortunately, there was an "invisible hand" that prevented him from playing on behalf of the Guangzhou team, which directly led to a great reduction in his game status, and even li Xiaopeng's national football training roster.
