Shanghai Shenhua has a commendable performance in the Super League this season, and the team is also leading the way in the standings. Therefore, Shenhua is expected to win the Chinese Super League championship this season. Shenhua coach Slutsky's coaching ability has been recognized by fans and the media. At that time, after Slutsky became the head coach of Shenhua, his coaching prospects were not optimistic. Slutsky's predecessor, Wu Jingui, led the team to a good record last season and won the FA Cup.
Therefore, Shenhua fans feel that Slutsky should not replace Wu Jingui. Fortunately, after a period of adaptation, Slutsky showed a convincing performance. Especially in the Super Cup final between Shenhua and SIPG, he also led the team to win the championship against SIPG. This allowed Slutsky's coaching ability to be recognized by fans and the media.
Slutsky was rumored some time ago to introduce big-name center Djuba to strengthen the Shenhua striker, which caused a lot of heated discussions among fans. Because, Shenhua's original main striker Malele is indeed in average condition, while Djuba is a player with outstanding strength and ability. Dzyuba used to start for the Russian Premier League champions and has a Golden Boot-level scoring efficiency.
It is worth mentioning that Dzyuba also had a good performance when he represented Russia in the World Cup. So in this case, Djuba has become the object of invitation from many giants in the Chinese Super League. Shandong Taishan team once wanted to introduce Jiuba to strengthen the center, but unfortunately he was in the prime of his career at that time and did not want to come to the Chinese Super League for retirement.
For this reason, Jiuba missed the opportunity to come to the Chinese Super League to make a lot of money, and if the big-name center came to Shenhua in the summer window, there was a high probability that he would not be able to enjoy a sky-high annual salary. At the same time, the decision on whether Shenhua can bring in Djuba is up to the club's top management. If, the top management of the Shenhua club is not interested in an outdated veteran like Dyuba. Then, Slutsky's strong recommendation of a big-name center forward to Shenhua can only be useless.
