With the arrest of Du Zhaocai and the return of more than 20 middle-level members of the Football Association, the anti-corruption in football has entered a new stage. Du Zhaocai is the biggest fish in this anti-corruption campaign, and he is even worse and more serious than Chen Xuyuan in all aspects. At present, he has been formally arrested by the relevant authorities for taking bribes, and he will face the final trial. More than 20 middle-level Football Association stolen goods are also considered a phased achievement, these more than 20 people should be exempt from punishment because the situation is relatively minor, and they will remain in their original positions, and even when a new department is created in the future, they will be promoted.
Du Zhaocai's situation is much more serious, whether it is the amount or the harmfulness, and his current age, I am afraid it will be difficult for him to be free again. According to domestic media sources, Du Zhaocai's case is particularly huge, more than 40 million yuan, which is already very terrifying. And that's just the cash part, the other assets are staggering, and there are many properties alone. Although it seemed that Chen Xuyuan always showed his face in front of the public, and many strange rules were also issued by him, in fact, Du Zhaocai's power was greater, and Chinese football was like this, and his influence was even more.
With more than 40 million yuan in cash, what kind of outcome will Du Zhaocai have for such a huge amount of money? According to the introduction of relevant professionals, accepting bribes of more than 3 million yuan is enough to be a particularly huge amount, and the sentence is 10 years, and the maximum sentence is life or death. If Du Zhaocai repents and takes the initiative to return the stolen goods, the punishment can be reduced, I believe that Du Zhaocai faces conclusive evidence and facts, and he has no choice but to repent well and actively return the stolen goods. But judging from the huge harm to Chinese football, fans hope that he can be punished severely.
The tenure of Du Zhaocai and Chen Xuyuan was the most serious period of decline in Chinese football, and although there were some objective reasons, their decision-making was very wrong. In fact, whether there is corruption or not, they have caused huge losses to Chinese football, especially the decline of women's football has a lot to do with them. In addition to the managers of the Football Association, we are really not suitable for the development of football, from top to bottom there is no special attention to football, other people's children are playing outside, our children are playing kings or learning Xi, how can it be possible to cultivate good players.
Judging from past experience, Du Zhaocai is unlikely to receive a particularly heavy punishment, 15 to 20 is about the same, but judging from their harm to Chinese football, if it is really such a punishment, there is no way to make up for their mistakes. Hopefully, current and future football administrators will take this as a warning and stop following their old path and disappointing hundreds of millions of fans.
