Due to the serious financial crisis of the club's parent company, guangzhou team (formerly Guangzhou Evergrande), the former hegemon of the Chinese Super League, also had a problem of unpaid wages last year. Under such circumstances, several non-blood naturalized players of the Guangzhou team have also terminated their contracts with the club and returned to Brazil.
While these Brazilian-American naturalized players have beaten the crowd in the middle of the game, with the exception of Gaulat, who officially joined Santos earlier this year, several other players have yet to find new jobs for themselves.
Therefore, the question of where they will go next season has also become the focus of attention of many Chinese fans. Naturalized players such as Fernando, Axon and Jiang Guangtai have also recently had a scandal with a number of Chinese Super League teams, and last season's Chinese Super League double champion Shandong Taishan was one of them.
At present, the most rumored with Taishan is the first non-blood naturalized player in the Chinese Super League, Axon, although the current Taishan team does lack forward players, but the 33-year-old Axon's state has long been much worse than before, and his poor performance in the national football round of 12 last year is enough to prove this.
According to the latest news, Axon, who can't find a job in Brazil, is indeed ready to return to the Chinese Super League to play, but the team he wants to join is not Shandong Taishan, but a Chinese Super League promotion horse.
It is reported that Axon's agent is currently negotiating with this club, the willingness of both sides to cooperate is very strong, if a consensus can be reached on the issue of Axon's salary, the possibility of him joining this new Chinese Super League army is still very large.
According to some people in the domestic football circle, this team has played in the Chinese Super League many years ago, and the club's willingness to return to the Chinese Super League has always been very strong. Last season they had a pretty good finish in the Chinese First Division and beat their opponents in the Super League play-offs to make a successful return to the Chinese Super League.
Although the above news does not directly name the new Chinese Super League team, it is not difficult for fans to guess who this team is. Right! They are the Zhejiang team (formerly Zhejiang Greentown).
As we all know, there were 4 successful Chinese League A teams last season, namely Wuhan Three Towns, Meizhou Hakka, Zhejiang and Chengdu Rongcheng. Of these four teams, only Zhejiang has played in the Chinese Super League before.
In addition, although the financial situation of Wuhan Three Towns and Zhejiang Team Club is quite good, Wuhan Three Towns has recently introduced a number of attackers, and they do not lack forward players, so Axon's new home is likely to be Zhejiang Team.
From the current situation, the biggest obstacle for Axon to join the Zhejiang team is the salary problem. Recently, the Chinese Football Association has just introduced the latest salary limit policy for Chinese Super League players, and the maximum salary of naturalized players cannot exceed 3 million euros. This is indeed too little for Axon, who earns more than 10 million euros a year at Evergrande.
However, the news said that Axon's annual salary at the new owner is likely to exceed 3 million euros. In addition to the maximum salary limit stipulated by the Football Association, the club can also increase Axon's income through forms such as portrait rights and other advertising endorsements.
In fact, this kind of disguised salary increase for players is not uncommon in the past Chinese Super League, the most typical example is the Shanghai harbor foreign aid Oscar, for well-known reasons, so that the Brazilian foreign aid has received a high annual salary of more than 10 million euros.
For Axon, who is now about to turn 33, it is quite tempting to get a high salary of more than 3 million euros in the Chinese Super League. You know, if he stays in Bajia to play football, his salary may not even be half of this amount.
Therefore, the possibility of Axon joining Zhejiang in the new season is still very large, and this will become the first non-blood naturalized player in the Chinese Super League, the last big contract he got in his career...
