On February 26, Beijing time, it was revealed from the well-known domestic media "Northwest Lookout" that after Xu Jiayin made a decision of 15 million yuan to operate the Guangzhou team for 1 year, coupled with a stricter "salary restriction order" announced by the football association, the main players of the Guangzhou team left the team collectively, which was inevitable.
Previously, in the salary restriction policy exposed by the Guangzhou team, the main salary of the club's first team was 600,000 annual salary, not only 3 players could get this maximum salary, but also before tax. Players probably only have more than 400,000 hands. This is obviously unacceptable to many players in the Guangzhou team who have become accustomed to getting millions of annual salaries.
Among the players of the Guangzhou team, veterans such as Zheng Zhi, Mei Fang, Liao Lisheng and other veterans whose contracts expire will certainly not renew their contracts. Zheng Zhi, who was also the temporary manager of the team last season, has clearly informed himself that he will not continue to lead the team in the new season. Mei Fang will return to Wuhan to join the Three Towns team, while Liao Lisheng is expected to become the first signing of Taishan in Shandong.
In addition, He Chao, Wei Shihao, Yang Liyu, Zhang Linpeng, Jiang Guangtai and other international players who still have contracts with Guangzhou will also leave the team, and they are likely to choose to leave with the help of their agents. Because the economic crisis of the parent company is still unresolved, the Guangzhou team does not set any restrictions on the departure of the main players, and acquiesced to leaving in freedom. Wei Shihao, Zhang Linpeng, Jiang Guangtai and other popular internationals who do not need to transfer fees will surely cause other Chinese Super League teams to rush.
Not only the international team, but also the football school players Tan Kaiyuan and Ling Jie, who performed well in the second half of last season, are unknown and are likely to leave the team. Although both are talents trained by Evergrande Football School, their annual salaries in the team are also more than one million, and many people are still after-tax contracts. Compared with other football school players, the two who have already shown their talent in the Chinese Super League naturally have the courage not to accept the low new contract of guangzhou team.
