On November 6, Beijing time, according to the news from Yuan Ye, a well-known journalist in China, although Ji Xiang, who played for Shandong Taishan, was called up for the national team, he would not participate in this training camp because of his injury, and naturally would not follow the national team to Sharjah, THE UNITED ARAB Emirates.
Previously, the Chinese men's national football team has announced that Guo Tianyu, Wei Shihao, Wang Shangyuan, Yin Hongbo and Gao Zhunyi and other 5 people have temporarily left the national team. The top four internationals were due to family reasons, while The High Precision Wing was due to injuries. With the departure of 5 countries, the national team also needs to replenish "fresh blood". Therefore, it is reported that Ji Xiang of Shandong Taishan team will be urgently recruited into the national football team.
As an international player introduced by The Taishan team for free from the Jiangsu Suning team in March this year, Ji Xiang has already sat firmly in the main force after joining the Taishan team. This season, he has made 13 starts in 15 appearances, contributed 4 assists, and he is also a contributor to the Taishan team's FA Cup promotion. Because of this, Li Tie hopes that the 31-year-old "golden oil" defender can return to the national football team and play with the team against Oman and Australia.
However, Yuan Ye said that Ji Xiang did not report to the national football team. The national team did send a notice to Taishan to recruit Jixiang, but Taishan Club replied to the national team: Jixiang was injured. Taishan Club also issued a report to the national team that Ji Xiang had an injury, so Ji Xiang did not participate in this training.
It is worth noting that Ji Xiang, who is injured, still appeared in the second leg of the FA Cup semi-final between Taishan and Henan, to which Taishan coach Hao Wei said that he had communicated with Ji Xiang and another taishan international player Zheng Zheng, who was willing to contribute to the club's FA Cup championship in the event of injury.
Injured, he cannot report to the national team, but he can represent Taishan in the FA Cup. Many netizens have ridiculed: "This is the Taishan team's silent protest against the Football Association!" "I don't know if Tarzan and Ji Xiang himself will be punished by the FA for this?" "Anyway, the round of 12 is basically unable to qualify!" Support the choice of Jixiang and Tarzan Club! “
