In the spring breeze, the teams of the Chinese Super League have successively sounded the rallying call and begun to prepare for the new season. But there are also a few teams that have been slow to move. On February 26, another team came to the new dynamic, that is, the Cangzhou Lions. On the same day, the Cangzhou Lions officially released a video recorded by coach Sablic, who greeted fans and friends while also introducing the team's preparations.
It is reported that Sablić is in quarantine in Guangzhou. It is expected to lift the quarantine in early March and meet the team. In addition to goalkeeper coach Košic, Sablic brought two new coaches, namely physical coach Chris and assistant coach George. In the new season, they will form a new coaching team to lead the Cangzhou Lions to compete in the Chinese Super League.
According to the news released by Cangzhou Lions Football Club, the team has officially completed the assembly in Foshan, Guangdong Province on February 21 and began to prepare for the new season. The team is currently training as planned under the leadership of the domestic coaching staff.
In the 2021 season of the Chinese Super League, the Cangzhou Lions fell into the relegation group, and finally scored 25 goals, 32 goals, 32 goals and 24 points with 6 wins, 6 draws and 10 losses, and successfully completed the relegation.
Coach Sablic took over the team in the middle of the way, from the situation of leading the team to complete the relegation, he still took up the heavy burden, and like the previous coach Changchun Yatai, played the role of "firefighting coach". However, in the new season, Sablic and Cangzhou Lions will face severe tests. Especially under the rumored resumption of the home and away game format, where the Cangzhou lions go, has attracted much attention.
