With the end of the Women's Volleyball League, many players have further career planning, some have chosen to recuperate, treat injuries, some choose to play abroad, and some choose to retire. Among them, the main players of the Chinese women's volleyball team, such as Yuan Xinyue, Ding Xia and Gong Xiangyu, chose to recuperate or heal their injuries. Yao Di, Jin Ye and Chen Peiyan chose to play abroad, while Zang Qianqian chose to retire. If the players who choose to recuperate and choose to play abroad give people more expectations and hopes, Zang Qianqian's retirement is very regrettable, and I sincerely hope that the outstanding players who played in the year will no longer have to retire.
Careful fans will find that Li Yingying, who was the most widely rumored and the most vocal about playing abroad, did not appear in the ranks of players who went abroad to play, but chose to take a temporary break. As for the reason, some foreign media broke the news that it was because Li Yingying's quotation was too high, which led to the temporary stranding of her going abroad to play. However, the author personally believes that this statement is not valid. First, because Zhu Ting's value is used as a reference, Li Yingying's rumored offer of 650,000 euros is not high. Second, because the Fenerbahce club, which is rumored to be introduced to Li Yingying, has close cooperation with the Tianjin women's volleyball team, Li Yingying's offer will not be an obstacle for her to play abroad at all.
Since the offer is not an obstacle that prevents Li Yingying from playing abroad, what caused this matter to run aground? Some people say that the Tianjin women's volleyball team does not dare to release people in order to keep the championship, and some people say that Li Yingying's going abroad to play is originally illusory, and no team will fancy Li Yingying at all. These two arguments are actually untenable.
First, with the strength of the Tianjin women's volleyball team now in its own gear, even if Li Yingying does not win the championship, there is not much problem, at most it is not so easy. This can be confirmed by the lack of five main players of the Tianjin women's volleyball team in the National Championship and still being able to win the championship. Second, if Li Yingying wants to play abroad, the Tianjin women's volleyball team will only help and will not block it at all. This can be confirmed by Li Yingying's own polite decline of Fenerbahce's invitation in 2018. In 2018, Li Yingying could receive an invitation from Fenerbahce, and now Li Yingying Fenerbahce and other foreign clubs could not refuse, so it is nonsense to say that no team appreciates Li Yingying.
It is not that the Tianjin women's volleyball team refuses to release people, nor that Li Yingying has not been invited by foreign teams, then Li Yingying's failure to go abroad to play is only one possibility, that is, the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team, Cai Bin, does not dare to let Li Yingying go abroad to play. Because this year is the most critical year in the entire Paris Olympic cycle of the Chinese women's volleyball team. Whether it is the Hangzhou Asian Games, which is a hard indicator of winning the championship, or the qualification round of the Paris Olympic Games, there is no room for mistakes. Although Zhu Ting is expected to return to the Chinese women's volleyball team, whether the tacit understanding between Zhu Ting and Diao Linyu is tacit remains to be tested, so Cai Bin categorically does not dare to press the treasure on Zhu Ting alone, so Li Yingying has become the only guarantee that Cai Bin can trust at present.
In addition, if Li Yingying goes abroad to play, she will inevitably miss this year's training. However, so far, the tacit understanding between Diao Linyu and Li Yingying is still insufficient, if Li Yingying misses the training, it is equivalent to missing the opportunity to run in with Diao Linyu, which will cause Li Yingying to still not be able to play the strongest strength. Once Li Yingying cannot play her strongest strength, the results of the Chinese women's volleyball team will not be guaranteed. Under the premise of hard index requirements, this kind of result is obviously the last thing Cai Bin wants to see, so Cai Bin should not dare to rashly let Li Yingying go abroad to play in order to ensure his results and his future.
