Xu Xin wants to go, Taishan does not stay, the spare tire is basically finalized, he is Evergrande footballer Liao Lisheng. According to Kang Bing, president of luneng Taishan Beijing Fans Association, Liao Lisheng will become Taishan's first signing in the new season.
For Liao Lisheng, Evergrande fans can be said to be quite familiar. As early as the 2014 season, Liao Lisheng, who was only 21 years old at the time, turned out to be famous with his outstanding performance against Jeonbuk Hyundai in the AFC Champions League. Since then, Liao Lisheng has won the trust of the then Evergrande coach Lippi, and has been entrusted with heavy responsibilities many times, becoming a member of the regular rotation of the team, and even being named "Zheng Zhi's successor".
After the club became famous, Liao Lisheng was successfully selected for the U23 national football team and participated in the U23 Asian Cup as a captain, although the team performed poorly, he played well personally, scoring direct free kicks in 2 consecutive games. Unfortunately, after that, with Lippi's withdrawal from Evergrande, Liao Lisheng's situation also declined all the way, and he was even loaned out to Tianjin for a time.
After returning to Evergrande in the 2020 season, Liao Lisheng was reused by Cannavaro. Last season, he made 19 appearances for the team, including 18 starts, contributed 1 goal and 2 assists, delivered 21 key passes, 26 steals, 27 interceptions and 16 clearances, making him the best of the domestic Mesozoic backs. Because of this, he was recruited into the team after the fiasco of the national football team to Vietnam, as the core training of the team's future midfield.
For the Taishan team, since Xu Xin's departure is inevitable, they must finalize their stand-in as soon as possible. Since Liao Lisheng's contract with Evergrande expired as early as the end of October last year, it did not cost any transfer fee to transfer taishan. This is a very cost-effective signing for the Taishan team. Not surprisingly, next season Liao Lisheng will partner Sun Zhunhao and become one of the main backs of the Taishan team. As for Fellaini, it is more likely that he will appear in key events.
