Chengdu Rongcheng performed well in last season's Chinese Super League and FA Cup, finishing in the top four in both competitions. As a result, the coaching ability of Chengdu Rongcheng's head coach Xu Zhengyuan has been recognized by fans and the media. Despite this recognition, Xu Zhengyuan remains humble and has already renewed his contract with Chengdu Rongcheng ahead of time. After renewing his contract, Xu Zhengyuan began to strengthen the team through new signings.
Xu Zhengyuan's efficiency in signing new players for Chengdu Rongcheng is very high, securing the additions of Liu Dianzuo, Han Pengfei, Liao Li Sheng, and Yuan Mincheng among others. Among these signings, Liao Li Sheng's arrival is expected to accelerate Yan Dinghao's loan transfer to Beijing Guoan. Liao Li Sheng's technical characteristics are very similar to Yan Dinghao's, and Yan Dinghao did not perform convincingly after joining Chengdu Rongcheng last season. Consequently, Yan Dinghao has become a substitute in the latter stages of his time at Chengdu Rongcheng.
Yan Dinghao's demotion to the bench at Chengdu Rongcheng has made him a hot candidate for departure. After all, Yan Dinghao is in his prime and cannot afford to sit on the bench at Chengdu Rongcheng indefinitely. Additionally, Liao Li Sheng's arrival at Chengdu Rongcheng has made Yan Dinghao's position even more awkward. Therefore, Yan Dinghao will indeed need to consider whether to leave on loan.
If Yan Dinghao were to leave Chengdu Rongcheng on loan and wants to ensure a starting position at his new club, fans suggest he go to Beijing Guoan. Li Ming, the general manager of Beijing Guoan, was Yan Dinghao's mentor during his time with the 97 National Youth Team, and he knows how to use Yan Dinghao correctly. Yan Dinghao once reached new heights in his career under Li Ming's tutelage. In this context, going to Beijing Guoan would be the best choice for Yan Dinghao.
Finally, Beijing Guoan faces the challenge of competing in multiple fronts next season, including the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League, and they also hope to compete for the championship in the Chinese Super League. Therefore, Beijing Guoan can consider strengthening their squad by bringing in Yan Dinghao, hoping that he can take on the core responsibilities of the team. For fans who like Yan Dinghao, they hope that no matter where he goes next season, this idol star can explode with potential.
