Affected by multiple factors, this season's Chinese Super League has entered an unprecedented winter period, under such circumstances, the traditional pattern of the Chinese Super League has been broken. In the past few seasons, only Shandong Taishan (formerly Shandong Luneng) and Shanghai Haigang (formerly Shanghai SIPG) still have the strength to compete for the title, and whether the 8th champion of the Chinese Super League, Guangzhou (formerly Guangzhou Evergrande), will still exist next season is difficult to say.
Compared with the Guangzhou team, the current situation of Beijing Guoan, the veteran powerhouse of the Chinese Super League, is more embarrassing. Affected by the epidemic, All 4 foreign assistants of Guoan have left the team this season, and Bakambu, who still has a 2-month contract with the club, will definitely not return to the team.
Losing 5 foreign aides, coupled with 6 international players who have been training with the national team for a long time to participate in the World Preliminary Tournament, it is not easy for Guoan to enter the championship group this season. In the FA Cup match, Guoan, who had no intention of fighting, also lost to the Chinese League one team Sichuan Jiuniu in the first game, and was eliminated early.
Although the four have been empty this season, the Guoan club has not completely given up. With five foreign players leaving the team, Guoan brought in Brazilian striker Anderson Silva in the summer transfer window. The Brazilian high striker has flown in the country by mid-month and is currently under quarantine observation. If nothing else, early next month he could come to Beijing to meet the Guoan team.
Anderson's joining can alleviate the problem of no one in the Guoan front line to a certain extent, but only one foreign forward is far from enough for the current Guoan. The club also needs to bring in at least 1-2 attacking foreign aides to make up for the shortcomings in the team's forward line.
Recently, there has also been news that rojas, an international striker who now plays for Ecuadorian league team Emerek, has recently received an offer from a Chinese Super League team. Although the name of this Chinese Super League team is not mentioned in this news, from the current foreign aid situation and financial situation of the Chinese Super League clubs, this Chinese Super League team may be Beijing Guoan.
Rojas, 24, is a speedy winger. Although he is only 1.72 meters tall, his scoring ability is very outstanding. So far this season, Rojas has scored eight goals and two assists for Emerek in 10 league games, and his super attacking power is evident. And Rojas's ability and characteristics are also the types of players that the Guoan team, which has always lacked good wingers, need to strengthen.
Of course, at present, guoan is not the only team in the Chinese Super League that has the strength to introduce Roxas. This season, Shandong Taishan, who has achieved great success in the league, also needs a forward player with full attacking power.
As we all know, Brazilian striker Guedes, who helped the team win the FA Cup last season, has terminated his contract with Taishan, and Leonardo, who has been introduced by Taishan this season, has left the team because he has not been able to integrate into the team's tactical system. In the case that the main striker Guo Tianyu could not return to the team in time because he played the World Preliminary Round with the national team, Taishan coach Hao Wei could only use two local substitute forwards, Cheng Yuan and Tian Xin, in the FA Cup.
Although both scored goals in the game, their performances were difficult to meet Hao Wei's requirements. Therefore, after Taishan entered the 1/4 knockout round of the FA Cup, Hao Wei had to push the naturalized player Delgado to the team's front line.
Therefore, today's Taishan team also urgently needs to introduce a foreign forward to strengthen the team's front line. Fans familiar with Shandong know that the Luneng team has always liked to use South American striker players, so Roxas is a good choice for the Taishan team. As for whether Roxas will join Guoan or Taishan, I believe that there will be a clear result in the near future, because there are only 2 months left before the opening of the winter transfer window of the Chinese Super League...
