Taishan's foreign aid will return to the team one after another, and the elite echelon will play in the AFC Champions League
On April 1, Shandong Taishan continued to train at the base, affected by the epidemic, the taishan team's training plan was forced to adjust, and in the near future, it can only conduct internal confrontation matches to adjust the state of the players. In April, Taishan's foreign aid will return to the team one after another, which is good news for Hao Wei, as for the team's lineup changes in the new season, there are still some variables.
Taishan won the double title of the Chinese Super League and the FA Cup last season, and Hao Wei also won the Chinese Golden Coach Award again, and his goal in the new season is still to lead the team to achieve better results, but the team also faces many practical problems. Especially on the offensive end, Guo Tianyu stayed in the Portuguese Premier League, he has arrived in Portugal, and participated in Vizzella's training, is expected to make his Portuguese Premier League debut on April 3. Guo Tianyu scored 10 goals for Taishan last season, tied with Fellaini for the top scorer in the team, and his departure will definitely have a big impact on Taishan's attack.
In addition to Guo Tianyu, Moises' contract is about to expire, he has no clear return time, Xu Xin has not renewed his contract, and leaving the team is almost a foregone conclusion, both of which were the main players of the Taishan team last season. In the new season, the Taishan team's offensive line is facing new changes, gossip foreign aid Kresan has not yet arrived in China, internal aid Liao Lisheng can not arrive until late April, plus at least 6 international players have not participated in the joint training, Taishan's lineup is also a problem, Hao Wei can only race against time.
In terms of foreign aid, Jia Desong returned to China as early as possible, he expects to return to the team for training in early April, Fellaini and Sun Zhunhao will return to the team one after another, Taishan is expected to have 3 foreign aides before mid-April, but after a long period of isolation, they still need time to recover their state. If the Chinese Super League starts at the end of April, the three foreign players will have nearly half a month to adjust.
In the AFC Champions League, The Taishan team decided to arrange an elite echelon to play, with the elite echelon dominated by U21 players, and there were many young players in 2003 and 2004. The manager of the elite echelon is Yu Yuanwei, and many national players who have participated in the U21 national youth and U19 national youth training before are expected to participate in the AFC Champions League, including Tian Yuda, Xie Wenneng, Yi Xianlong, Shi Yan and many other players who have returned from loan. In addition, Ji Shengpan and Liu Chaoyang in 1999 are also expected to participate in the AFC Champions League, and the specific list of The Taishan team has not yet been announced.
If all goes well, the Taishan elite team participating in the AFC Champions League will depart for Buriram, Thailand, around the 10th, the first match is against Daegu FC on April 15, followed by Urawa Red Diamonds in Japan and Singapore Lion City Mariners, 6 group games are all over in 16 days, for the young players of The Taishan team, this is also an opportunity to improve, looking forward to the boys can show their abilities in the AFC Champions League.
