Cangzhou Lions and Guangzhou FC failed to pass the entry requirements, and clubs that have passed should cherish their opportunities. Under the leadership of coach Xie Hui's coaching staff, Changchun Yatai is conducting physical training in Haikou, mainly focusing on aerobic running training, ball-running, passing, receiving, and other technical training. The players have met the training requirements set by the coaching staff during self-training, and the first phase of training has progressed smoothly. According to official news from Changchun Yatai Club, Beric and Rosic have arrived in Haikou to participate in joint training.
On the evening of January 6th, another foreign aid player, Su Zu, returned to the team after taking leave due to family matters. Changchun Yatai lost several players during this winter transfer window, including Serginho, Zui, Wang Jinian, Liao Chengjian, Zhang Yufeng, Yuan Mincheng, Yan Zhiyu, Cui Qi, etc., which had a significant impact on the team as a whole. While the club is working on new signings, Xie Hui will also tap into the potential within the team. Learning from past experiences, the team starts with physical reserves, focusing on improving physical fitness in the first stage.
After the opening of the first transfer window of the new season, Yatai Club will also make every effort to do well in the introduction of domestic and foreign aid. Starting from the second stage, the team will conduct tactical drills and test the results of training through friendly matches. There were rumors previously that Xie Hui wanted to sign Shan Huanhuan, the former Dalian Pro central forward, to serve as a substitute for the veteran Tan Long. However, Shan Huanhuan did not train with Changchun Yatai but is currently participating in winter training with Qingdao West Coast in Haikou, which is quite crowded!
Shan Huanhuan, the veteran Zhang Chengdong, and four young talents are joining Shao Jiayi!
On January 7th, according to reporter Sun Fei, Shan Huanhuan and Xiang Rongjun are currently participating in winter training with Qingdao West Coast. After completing self-conducted physical testing at Beijing Sports University, they proceeded to Haikou, Hainan for winter training. They will also travel to Dubai, UAE for training, fully preparing for the new season of the Chinese Super League. A group photo taken at Beijing Sports University has spread online, showing the return of Angolan former international Luís, with Zhang Chengdong, Shan Huanhuan, He Xiaoke, Li Hao, Yang Xi, and Xiang Rongjun training with the team.
Shan Huanhuan is currently 25 years old and was once known as one of China's three future center forwards alongside Zhang Yuning and Guo Tianyu. In 2016, Shan Huanhuan made his debut in the Chinese Super League with Beijing Guoan and later represented G.D. Chaves B in the Portuguese LigaPro. He was bought by Dalian Pro in the 2021 season but failed to fulfill his personal talent due to injuries, contributing only 2 goals and 1 assist in 23 league appearances, with 11 starts. After Dalian Pro disbanded, Shan Huanhuan had no football to play in the 2024 season. This time, he makes a comeback!
Xiang Rongjun is currently 20 years old and plays as a full-back. He made his debut in the Chinese Super League with Shanghai Port in the 2022 season. In the 2024 season, he was loaned to Suzhou Dongwu by Shanghai Port, making 29 appearances with 26 starts, contributing 1 goal and 3 assists. Adding He Xiaoke, Li Hao, and Yang Xi, four young talents have turned to Shao Jiayi, which is very noteworthy. According to reporter Gan Hui, Shanghai Shenhua's winter training in Haikou will continue until January 27th, with arrangements for four warm-up matches against Dalian Yingbo, Qingdao West Coast, Jinmen Tiger, and Beijing Guoan.
