The birth of the new Evergrande? The upstart of Chinese football made a move to win the top stars!
After years of silence, the investment climate in Chinese football is finally showing signs of improvement. According to the latest news, the Chinese League A team Dandong Tengyue has been determined to be disbanded, and the replacement will be Yunnan Yukun, the second largest team in the second division. After qualifying for the Chinese League, Yunnan Yukun will also start a series of reinforcements, including some top stars at the Chinese Super League level, whose "arrogance" is impressive.
According to Li Ting, the captain of Dandong Tengyue, it was because the team owner received a sum of money from Yukun, Yunnan, and then announced the dissolution of the team. In other words, the reason why Yunnan Yukun was able to have the opportunity to make up for the middle league was entirely because the club had spent a lot of money! Although this method of "laying eggs through the backdoor" was not glorious, it was not prohibited in terms of rules, and it also showed the wealth of this club.
In fact, Yunnan Yukun showed the potential to become a "local tyrant team" as early as last year. Last season, Yunnan Yukun, as a Chinese B club, aggressively recruited from high-level leagues such as the Chinese Super League and the Chinese First Division, and won 9 fierce players, including the former Guangzhou R&F main defender Jiang Jihong and the former Chinese Super League best newcomer Li Xiaoming. The addition of these powerful players has made Yunnan Yukun's team value expand rapidly, reaching more than 1.7 million euros, which is twice as high as the second-ranked team in the second division of the Chinese Second Division!
In the case that it is a foregone conclusion to obtain the qualification of the middle league, Yunnan Yukun's reinforcement machine will start again. According to reliable sources, the team will bring in Mu Xiekui, the winner of the silver boot of the Chinese Super League last season and the legendary scorer of the former Dalian and Zhejiang teams! As a top scorer in the Chinese Super League, Mu Xiekui's joining will greatly enhance the strength of Yunnan Yukun.
With such a large amount of reinforcements, Yunnan Yukun's purpose is actually very clear, that is, to be promoted to the Chinese Super League as soon as possible. From this point of view, their approach is actually the same as that of Guangzhou Evergrande, Hebei Huaxia Happiness, Wuhan Three Towns and other teams, all of which are in the low-level league to eat a group of players with the level of the Chinese Super League, increase investment, and strive to achieve the goal in a short time.
