Recently, the news that Fan Zhiyi, the former captain of the national football team, is about to bid farewell to the entertainment industry and officially go out of the mountain to serve as the head coach of the Liaoning Ironman football team. Although it is not an official announcement issued by the club, there is a picture and a truth. Fan Zhiyi did come to Shenyang and watched the team's training and games.
According to people familiar with the matter, Gao Mingqi, the former head coach of Liaoning Iron Man, was resigned due to poor performance in leading the team. After research, the club decided that Fan Zhiyi, the former captain of the national football team, would take over Gao Mingqi's position as head coach. However, the club gave General Fan the title of head of the coaching staff and technical director, and Sun Wei served as the deputy head of the coaching staff and deputy technical director and the first executive coach.
However, when the news of Fan Zhiyi coming out to coach the first team came out, the outside world was not optimistic about Lao Fan's coaching prospects. After all, he has completely distanced himself from football in recent years, and is a bit out of touch with the latest football coaching philosophy. The most critical point is that he has been loyal to many variety shows in the past two years, has become a celebrity in online live broadcasts, and even began to try to test the waters in some hit dramas.
Therefore, when the news of Fan Zhiyi's return to football and serving as the head coach of Liaoning Iron Man was released, many people were also a little surprised by this. thinks that although he has made great achievements in the player era, he is still a little less enthusiastic as a head coach, and he may not even be better than his predecessor Gao Mingqi. Just as he said when he was the coach of the national football team, Gao Hongbo, when he got out of class, "Xiao Gao is quite good, what are you going to do with him"! Now Gao Mingqi, who has left the class from Liaoning Iron Man, also happens to be surnamed Gao, if Lao Fan really wants to replace Gao Mingqi, there is no doubt that his unintentional divine prophecy will be repeated in himself.
However, just when the outside world was hyping the news that General Fan had become the head coach of Liaoning Ironman, just last night, Fan Zhiyi gave everyone an unexpected official announcement. He can't bear the hype that is constantly fermenting in the outside world, and "don't even want to lose face" is his harshest criticism of rumor-mongers. He also responded to this by posting an announcement on his personal social media. He said that he only helped Liaoning Iron Man build a coaching team out of his personal love and feelings for football, and did not hold any actual position in the team.
General Fan's official announcement of the decision undoubtedly put an end to the topic of his re-emergence from the mountain. There is public opinion that Liaoning Iron Man did intend to let Fan Zhiyi take over the team, but Lao Fan himself may also lack psychological preparation for this, after all, he himself has not coached in the first team for many years, and he is not sure whether he can lead the team. On the other hand, Liaoning Tieren's internal equity relationship is very complicated, and he doesn't want to be involved in the complex network of Chinese football because of this.
