Recently, the discussion about Guangzhou Lions coach Guo Shiqiang has become a hot topic, the key word is youth recruitment, many media people have also confirmed and demonstrated this matter, and Guo Shiqiang himself has said to the general manager of Lions: You have to keep going out to find young players!
Encouraging the general manager to go out to find young players is mentioned in the interview after Guo Shiqiang renewed his contract, it is worth mentioning that after the loss of Liaoning semifinals G3, Guo Shiqiang broke the news through the media that he may not renew his contract in Guangzhou, and has contacted the northern team, but after Liaoning G5 won Guangsha, Guo Shiqiang quickly completed the contract with Guangzhou, which is very strange and confusing.
Guo Shiqiang, as the meritorious coach who brought Liaoning the first CBA championship and the first champion of the National Games, did contribute to Liaoning basketball, and was replaced by Yang Ming when he quickly left class, which once became hot news. But it was later confirmed that Yang Ming did not stay in the position of manager, and was also driven to the shelves, otherwise he would still be a well-paid and dashing vice president of the club.
This time, the media recognized by several clubs in Liaoning broke the news that Guo Shiqiang contacted the leaders of the 13, 14 and 15 age groups this time, they are Lu Shanglin, Li Luoyong and Dai Yanlong, of which Xiaodai is young but has a reputation and is a very potential insider seedling, so many fans have to sigh that Guo's guidance is also too ruthless, and wants to break the foundation of Liaoning youth training.
The only gratifying thing is that it is reported that the young players of the Liaoning Flying Leopard echelon have signed a training contract with the club, if outsiders want to dig the foot of the wall, it can indeed be carried out, but it must pay liquidated damages, so this time Guo Gui's "digging" is not smooth, the past routine has not worked, and now the children of the Liaoning Echelon are satisfied with the club conditions and are unwilling to go, so this time back to his hometown Guo Mentor can only see old friends.
Objectively speaking, although Guangzhou Longlion has improved its performance, the club operation is not good, and the 2022 annual report alone has a loss of 26.09 million, and the renewal of Guo Shiqiang is a large amount of money. The sale of Lif's contract renewal rights last season is a good example, the Dragons and Lions are taking the emotional card to pull in young players, and they can also sell at a good price after playing a good record to stay in the team, and those who do not play well will really leave home and be delayed.
Every time Guo Shiqiang returns to Liaoning, he will be warmly welcomed by local fans, and the old uncle banners full of the game are still in front of him, Guo Shiqiang, who is so loved by Liaoning fans, really should not always stare at the echelon young people in Liaoning.
