A few days ago, according to Brazilian media reports, Paulinho will not be able to get a new contract with the club after the expiration of his contract with Corinthians. At the same time, the media also broke the news that Paulinho has received offers from Chinese Super League teams, and if this news is true, Paulinho may become the first superstar ushered in by the Chinese Super League summer window. Although Paulinho is already an outdated veteran, his experience of playing as the main player in Barcelona will still be regarded as an absolute superstar after he returns to the Chinese Super League.
Paulinho used to play for Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League, but he didn't fit into the team's technical and tactical system. So in this case, Paulinho was watched by Evergrande's meritorious coach Scolari. Paulinho joined Evergrande with a high salary and opened a new chapter in his career. Facts have proved that Paulinho's joining Evergrande is a correct choice. Paulinho put on a world-class performance at Evergrande and returned to the Brazilian national team.
At the same time, Paulinho also got the opportunity to play for Barcelona, which brought his career to a new peak. Paulinho has played for Evergrande for many years and has become the team's meritorious captain, and has made great achievements for the team to win the AFC Champions League and the Chinese Super League championship. Considering Paulinho's familiarity with the advantages of the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League, if he returns to Chinese football in the summer window, it seems that the new club should be a giant team.
Among the giants of the Chinese Super League, the Luneng team is in urgent need of reinforcement in the back position. The Luneng team also had an affair with Paulinho some time ago, which caused heated discussions among Shandong fans. Shandong fans feel that if Paulinho can recover his eight-success ability, there will be no problem playing the core in Luneng. Luneng was plagued by the weakness of the back midfield in both the AFC Champions League knockout round and the Chinese Super League, allowing the team to go further in the AFC Champions League knockout round.
So in this case, Luneng can indeed consider bringing in Paulinho. However, Paulinho has not trained and played systematically for a long time, which requires Luneng coach Cui Kangxi to train well. Since Cui Kangxi can activate Fernando, who has not played for two years, Paulinho, who has not played for half a year, is activated by Cui Kangxi, it is also a matter of time.
