On January 10th, Beijing time, new news came from the Chinese Super League transfer market. Shenzhen New Pengcheng officially announced that the team has signed Jiang Zhipeng from Wuhan Sanzhen. This former international is an excellent left-back and was still a key player for Sanzhen despite his age. It is a pity that Sanzhen lost Jiang Zhipeng. Looking at the player turnover at Sanzhen, quite a few players have left the team during the winter window. With Jiang Zhipeng's transfer, 9 players have left Sanzhen in the winter window
! Rongcheng and Zhejiang took advantage: each signing one national team player.

Jiang Zhipeng played 23 times for Sanzhen last season, scoring 2 goals and providing 4 assists. Sometimes he could single-handedly support the left flank attack for Sanzhen, and his offensive attributes were important to Sanzhen. At 35 years old, Jiang Zhipeng still has the ability to compete. He returned to Shenzhen and became a New Pengcheng player, helping New Pengcheng complete relegation in the new season.

Sanzhen had won four championships in three years during its glorious period, but due to economic problems, the team had to cut back on investment, leading to a decline in overall strength. Last season, they only ranked 11th in the Chinese Super League and faced survival issues, barely passing the FA entry requirements. Before the start of the new season, nine players have already bid farewell to Sanzhen, facing a major reshuffle of the squad. Like Jiang Zhipeng, Zhang Xiaobin, a midfielder from Sanzhen, also went to New Pengcheng.

Chengdu Rongcheng finished third in the Chinese Super League last season and will play in the AFC Champions League next season. Liu Dianzuo, the former Sanzhen goalkeeper, whose contract expired, has already said goodbye to the team and joined Rongcheng for winter training. For Rongcheng, getting a national team-level goalkeeper is a good deal. Zhejiang finished seventh in the Chinese Super League last season, and Tao Qianglong, a national team forward whose contract with Sanzhen also expired last year, has already joined Zhejiang according to reports from Wang Xiaorui, a reporter from Titan Sports Weekly. After completing the national team training, he will reunite with Zhejiang for training again.

Liu Ruofan, a forward from Sanzhen, has joined Shanghai Port. He was photographed by fans wearing a Shanghai Port jersey among the team's winter training squad, as Shanghai Port heads to the UAE for winter training. He Chao, a midfielder from Sanzhen, has also changed teams, appearing in Henan's winter training squad in Kunming.

In addition, Aifelding, a forward from Sanzhen who joined the team on loan from Guangzhou last season, has seen his loan contract expire, but Guangzhou has withdrawn from professional football, leaving Aifelding's future uncertain. Halik, a midfielder loaned from Shanghai Port to Sanzhen, has returned to Shanghai Port. Ren Hang, the 35-year-old veteran captain, has also seen his contract with Sanzhen expire. With the departure of high-paid players from Sanzhen, the team is expected to become younger and more local next season, with a brand-new Sanzhen team appearing before the fans.
