Reporter Lu Mi reported that just after the New Year's holiday, Tianjin Jinmen Tiger was caught in the old account storm. Recently, due to the failure to fulfill due payment obligations, after June last year, Jinmen Tigers received a transfer ban from FIFA prohibiting the registration of new players. Although in the middle of last season, the Jinmen Tiger Club stripped the domestic personnel debt problem that occurred during the "TEDA period" by splitting the company, at the FIFA level, the debt lawsuit involving former foreign aid and foreign teachers, the board eventually fell on jinmen tigers.
During the second transfer of the Chinese Super League last season, the Disciplinary Committee of the Chinese Football Association issued a similar transfer ban to the Jinmen Tiger Club after receiving the notice from FIFA, and since then, Teda, who has substantially withdrawn, has taken out nearly 20 million yuan to solve the debt lawsuit including former head coach Stilik, and the transfer ban has also been lifted, and the Jinmen Tiger Club has successfully introduced the Dutch midfielder Vicnovitch.
But just half a year later, the Jinmen Tigers received the same ban again. According to the reporter's understanding, the ban involves a lawsuit related to former foreign aid Jonathan, and the amount is also more than 10 million yuan. The solution is equally simple, as long as jinmen tiger pays the arrears, the ban is lifted immediately.
As we all know, it is precisely because TEDA is unwilling to continue to bear the capital investment, a large number of wage arrears occurred at the end of the "TEDA period", and it is precisely because of the impact of these huge debts that TEDA will give up the idea of football clubs so decisive. After the club was reborn as Jinmen Tiger, TEDA has actually stopped investing funds in operation. In this context, it is self-evident how much the subjective enthusiasm of TEDA to solve the debt problem can be.
Because the matter happened in the "TEDA period", and TEDA is still one of the nominal investors of the club, therefore, this problem should still be solved by TEDA. If TEDA is unwilling to continue to fund the solution, then this transfer ban may have a very huge negative impact on jinmen tiger club.
The Tsumen Tigers hastily regrouped last season, with a number of loan players in the team, including foreign aides, who have returned to their respective clubs after the end of the season, so the reinforcements in this transfer market are crucial for the new season's Jinmen Tigers.
The winter transfer window of the 2022 Chinese Super League is from January 17 to April 15, and the Jinmen Tigers have already planned and put into action, especially in terms of foreign aid. It is understood that a Slovenian centre forward has reached an agreement with the Tianjin Tiger Club on joining the club, and according to the plan, he will leave for China early next month.
Before receiving the latest ban, Jinmen Tigers announced that it had completed transfer negotiations with last season's loan player Barton, but because the formalities had not yet been completed, Barton's joining would also be affected by the ban. If the ban is not lifted, including Barton and the new center's foreign aid, the addition of all new players will be affected.
After paying the arrears according to the FIFA ruling, the transfer ban against Jinmen Tiger can be lifted. The procedure is not complicated, the key is money. Whether the transfer ban can be resolved as soon as possible is also related to the team's entire winter preparations, and even the plans for the entire season.
In addition to being punished by FIFA for not being able to register new players, whether the remaining debt problem can be properly resolved is also one of the important factors affecting the share reform of Jinmen Tiger Club.
Last season, Jinmen Tigers was successful in the thrilling relegation of the Chinese Super League, but the club's share reform has not yet made substantial progress, and like other Chinese Super League clubs that are in the process of stock reform, whether they can solve the debt problem is a major prerequisite for the smooth progress of the stock reform. Throughout the 2021 season, Jinmen Tiger has not been able to find a stable investor, with the assistance of relevant parties, the work of finding a company to take over in Tianjin has been ongoing, but it is understood that as of now, it has not received any positive feedback. At this time, the FIFA transfer ban received due to debt problems broke out, casting another shadow on the prospects of the share reform of the Jinmen Tiger Club.
A paper ban, the new year has an unfavorable start, the ill-fated Jinmen tiger in the year of the tiger to face difficulties do not seem to be easier than the previous year, the test of related aspects is still continuing.
