Shaanxi Chang'an Athletic announced today that the management has decided to appoint Wang Baoshan as the head coach of the team, and Feng Feng, the acting coach who led the team with good results last season, has been changed to the first team leader.
Wang Baoshan, who was a player, was selected for the Shaanxi team and the Chinese national team, and after retiring, he took up the coaching whip in the Xi'an team for nearly three decades. In his long coaching career, Wang Baoshan has experienced almost the entire process of professionalization of Chinese football. More than ten professional teams such as Yunnan Hongta, Jiangsu Sainty, Chengdu Sheffield United, Chongqing Lifan, Shenzhen Kaisa, Henan Jianye, Tianjin Teda and so on have left wang Baoshan's footprints.
Coaching in the top league for many years has allowed Wang Baoshan to accumulate enough experience, and repeatedly leading the team to complete the task of promotion also gives fans reason to believe that Shaanxi has the ability to attack a higher goal in the new season. It is worth mentioning that Wang Baoshan was born in Baoji City, and returning to his hometown to coach his hometown team this time must be of great significance to this veteran coach.
Previously, some media people said that the Shaanxi team considered Li Tie when selecting the coach. However, due to the poor evaluation of Li Tie during the round of 12, this plan ultimately failed to come to fruition.
Professor Kang Zhen, a professor at Beijing Normal University and also from Shaanxi, wrote an inscription for the team: "Finally the south of the south into Chang'an, weishui rushing to look forward to Baoshan!
