Currently, the Taishan team is training in Shanghai, and the team's recruitment work is also in full swing. The existing Wakko, Cressang, and Zecca will continue to stay with the team in the new season, and the team's midfield and backcourt will also buy people to strengthen their strength. It is reported that this time the team used its own connections in Brazil and did not blindly delegate power to Cui Kangxi. Compared to recruiting from the Korean league, Brazilian foreign aid with higher cost-effectiveness has become the first choice. According to media reports, Taishan team has basically confirmed two foreign players, namely Lucas and Madrugada, whose positions are central defender and defensive midfielder. Both of them are around 25 or 26 years old, with a value of between 600,000 and 700,000, which can be said to be in the prime of their lives and in excellent condition. Taishan team sent away Pato, Leonardo also confirmed to join Shanghai Port, Jadeson will also leave the team, so the team will complete the five foreign aid lineup. Such foreign aid strength is also among the best in the Chinese Super League, coupled with excellent domestic players and emerging young talents, the team is fully capable of challenging for the championship. Last season, after losing Sun Zhunhao, Moises, and Fellaini, the quality of foreign aid has not been strengthened. With only one truly healthy Wakko, it was decided that the team could not compete with top teams. This time, it is very necessary to strengthen the defensive midfielder and central defender positions.…

Although Oscar and Bargas chose to leave as free agents, transferring to the Brazilian league and the Saudi Professional League respectively, Shanghai Port continues to strengthen its lineup in an orderly manner. After spending 300,000 euros to acquire Vital, the former No. 10 player of the Brazilian national youth team for the midfield position, they also brought Leonardo, who has scored highly in the Chinese Super League over the past two years, into their ranks. It is well known that Leonardo scores many goals, but his assist ability has always been underestimated. He is not a center forward, or rather, letting him play upfront would be very ineffective because he is not fast and does not have much dribbling ability. The most suitable configuration for Leonardo is still a center forward paired with a speedy spearhead teammate, allowing him to receive the ball at a relatively advanced midfielder or winger position. On the one hand, Leonardo likes to retreat to deeper positions to receive the ball and organize the attack. On the other hand, his small-ball wall-passing cooperation in the core area is also excellent, which may all be reasons why Shanghai Port selected him. Leonardo has a flaw in that he is unwilling to defend. Once the team loses possession, he often stands completely still, which could be a significant problem. It remains to be seen whether Muscat can help him change. Considering Wu Lei's age and injuries, as well as the new foreign midfielder Vital's defensive effectiveness possibly not being as good as Oscar's, this could weaken Shanghai…

For Manchester City, due to the team's obvious downward trend this season, a complete rebuild has actually begun. After the transfer window opened, Manchester City took the lead among all major clubs, operating multiple important signings simultaneously. At present, after the transfer of Kusano is basically settled, their adjustments on the forward line and defensive line are still ongoing, with at least two important signings expected to be completely finalized in a short time. In the eyes of outsiders, Manchester City has fallen into its biggest trough in recent years, which can be traced back to earlier signs. On the one hand, since last season, the team's injuries have become increasingly serious, mainly because many of the main players' physical functions have passed their peak with age, making them susceptible to injuries in high-intensity and high-density matches; On the other hand, some core-level players have shown a significant decline in form, making it difficult for them to meet Guardiola's tactical requirements. In this situation, last season's Manchester City actually showed signs of being "at the end of its strength." This season, Rodri's injury became the straw that broke the camel's back. According to The Telegraph, two key players could leave the Etihad Stadium in this transfer window. First is Kyle Walker. It cannot be denied that during his peak, Kyle Walker was one of the most outstanding right-backs in European football, excelling both in defensive recovery and in assisting attacks. However, since last season, Kyle Walker's performance has taken a sharp turn for the worse, becoming the most obvious weakness…

Vitor Roque, the 2006-born Brazilian central defender, has shown remarkable maturity and strength beyond his age at the strong Brazilian team Palmeiras. Vitor Roque, with a height of 1.86 meters, has excellent physical conditions, and his ability to predict and jump is even more impressive. On the defensive end, he is calm and composed, saving the team from danger many times in critical moments; on the offensive end, he also has outstanding passing and ability to join in the attack, contributing many goals to the team. According to the latest Brazilian media reports, Vitor Roque's outstanding strength has attracted the attention of European giants such as Manchester City and Real Madrid. Real Madrid is looking for a long-term partner with Militao and has always been interested in signing him. Vitor Roque's contract lasts until 2028, with a release clause of as high as 100 million euros. Vitor Roque has always been linked with Real Madrid, but in the winter window, Manchester City suddenly stepped up its efforts. It was reported that Manchester City will offer 252 million reais (about 40 million euros, plus possible additional fee clauses) for Palmeiras central defender Vitor Roque. And they have already started transfer negotiations. If Manchester City can finally sign Vitor Roque for 40 million euros, it will become the highest-priced central defender in the history of Brazilian football to be transferred from its domestic league.

Recently, according to domestic football insiders, the head coach of Shandong Taishan, Choi Kang-hee, has started scouting for suitable candidates to reinforce the team. At the same time, Choi Kang-hee recommended Brazilian Serie A midfielder Gomes to join Shandong Taishan. The 26-year-old Gomes is in his prime and is an absolute starter in the Brazilian league. However, Gomes' salary and transfer fee requirements are not high, with a transfer fee of only 400,000 euros and a post-tax annual salary of 700,000 euros. Many Shandong fans believe that Choi Kang-hee's recommendation of this new foreign aid is stronger than Pato, who was introduced in the 2023 season. Pato failed to deliver convincing performances after joining Shandong Taishan in 2023. Instead, he missed several opportunities in the game, quickly earning him the label of a "flop." Additionally, Shandong Taishan spent more than ten million yuan on Pato. Spending over ten million yuan to introduce Pato did not have the desired reinforcing effect, naturally leading many fans to question Choi Kang-hee's judgment. Shandong fans believe that listening to Choi Kang-hee and introducing Pato was a wrong decision. Pato had never even played in the Brazilian league, only winning the golden boot in the Indonesian league. Winning the golden boot in the Indonesian league is not very convincing. Therefore, Shandong fans had little confidence in Pato's ability to establish himself after joining the club. As expected, Pato performed mediocrely at Shandong Taishan and was directly labeled a flop. In this situation, Shandong Taishan's head coach Choi Kang-hee also learned from the experience and brought…

The rear waist is about to arrive, with Shandong Taishan offering 1 million euros, a talent cultivated by Luneng Brazilian Sports. Currently, Shandong Taishan is still on vacation, but the team will soon reconvene to start their winter training. During this off-season, fans are still looking forward to Taishan strengthening their lineup, especially in terms of foreign players, hoping for some surprises. Last season, Taishan suffered significantly in the foreign player department, so if they want to achieve anything in the new season, they must strengthen their foreign player roster. Last season, Taishan exposed their midfield shortcomings after Moises left. They lacked a core player in the defensive midfield position. However, recently, good news has finally come for Taishan. According to Brazilian media reports, Shandong Taishan Football Club has submitted an offer of up to 1 million US dollars to a club in the Brazilian Serie A league, aiming to introduce their defensive midfielder - Guilherme Miranda Madruga Gomes, the winner of the 2023 Puskás Award. Madruga was born in 2000 and stands at 1.91 meters tall. He plays as a midfielder on the field, possessing excellent physical qualities and outstanding football talent. Moreover, he is an outstanding player cultivated by Luneng Brazilian Sports. As early as 2017, he was discovered by Luneng Brazilian Sports Club and joined their youth team. While in the youth team, Madruga participated in multiple events, notably, he also followed the team to participate in the 2018 Weifang Cup. During the Weifang Cup, he was rated as one of the best players due to his…

Due to the increasingly fierce competition in the Chinese Super League (CSL), various CSL teams are currently searching for strong new foreign players in the transfer market to enhance their team strength. Recently, according to multiple media reports, Shandong Taishan has made new moves in terms of foreign player recruitment. It is reported that Shandong Taishan will not renew the contract with the average Brazilian defender Marcelo but instead will strengthen and upgrade the foreign player lineup purposefully, aiming to return to the championship contention in the new season. As we all know, Shandong Taishan had some visible problems in their foreign player configuration last season. Although they had five foreign players on paper, in reality, due to poor recruitment and injury impacts, Shandong Taishan often had to play with only 2 to 3 starting foreign players, which seriously affected the team's combat effectiveness. Therefore, the management of Taishan team learned from the lessons of last season and decided to upgrade the foreign players in the new season, introducing players with more strength and adaptability. According to the Shandong Orange Wave Fan Club, Shandong Taishan will strengthen the weakest position in the midfield, the defensive midfielder. They have already targeted a midfielder from the Brazilian league, Guilherme Madruga, who plays for the Brazilian Serie A team Cuiabá Esporte Clube. Guilherme Madruga is 24 years old this year, at the prime of his career. He plays as a defensive midfielder and comes from the Brazilian sports youth training system, being a young midfield talent that catches attention in the Brazilian league.…

Recently, according to the latest report from Brazilian media diariodonordeste, the forward of Ceará Club, Shaluo Mineluo, who was previously targeted by Shanghai Shenhua, is likely to be intercepted by his city rival Shanghai Port. It is reported that this attacking player, who has performed outstandingly in the Brazilian league, is currently very close to joining the reigning Chinese Super League champion Shanghai Port, and both sides are currently working closely to finalize the final transfer details. Once the news came out, it immediately aroused widespread attention from domestic football media and fans. After all, in the current Chinese Super League transfer market, being able to attract a foreign forward like Shaluo Mineluo with immediate combat effectiveness is undoubtedly a great addition to the team's strength. It is worth mentioning that before this, many domestic media have already reported that Shaluo Mineluo will be the new aid of another Chinese Super League powerhouse, Shanghai Shenhua, and even rumors have spread that the transfer fee has reached 950,000 euros, and the joining matters have been "basically settled". For a time, the issue of Mineluo's ownership has become a hot topic among fans. Shanghai Shenhua, as a traditional strong team in the Chinese Super League, although it has not met the expectations of fans in terms of results in recent years, it has always maintained a high level in terms of recruitment. Especially in the selection of foreign players, Shenhua can always recognize the right person and introduce some players who shine on the Chinese Super League stage. Therefore, when Shaluo Mineluo's…

Here it is, Taishan's midfield reinforcement in sight: A suitable price for the Brazilian Serie A mainstay, will no one poach this time? In just a week's time, the Taishan team will gather at their base and then head to Hainan for winter training. During their stay in Hainan, the team will also have player transfers: Taishan has already received many clubs' offers, and it can be confirmed that during the training period, many players will welcome many coaches' inspections. The club has set up a list, excluding three foreign players and four to five domestic mainstays, no one can stay stable in the team, especially those rotation players, substitute players, rather than watching from the sidelines in the Taishan team, it is better to take on the role of the main force in other teams. And replacing these players will be Taishan's youth training players. This can also be considered a change in the history of the team: except for the Tengkate period, when a large number of young players such as Liu Binbin, Wu Xinghan were used, in other seasons, Taishan basically supplemented with their own youth training and the concept of the transfer market as the main focus. Now using a lot of their own youth training, is it over-cultivation or steady development? We'll wait and see. But anyway, this is an attempt worth encouraging. Taishan's midfield is targeting the Brazilian Serie A mainstay The team is about to gather, compared to many teams' foreign aid news, Taishan has been calm, without any news coming out, which…

Last season, Shanghai Port achieved great success, not only successfully defending their Chinese Super League title but also winning the FA Cup for the first time in their history. However, before the opening of the winter transfer window, Shanghai Port seems to be experiencing a storm. Following the confirmed departures of two major foreign players, Oscar and Bargos, another midfield core player, Citadini, is also on the verge of leaving. According to Brazilian journalist Rafael Seixas, both Fluminense and Fortaleza of the Brazilian league have shown strong interest in Citadini. The 30-year-old Brazilian midfielder was loaned from Bahia to Shanghai Port this season, playing 35 times and contributing 7 goals and 6 assists, becoming a key figure in the team's double championship in the Chinese Super League and FA Cup. However, Shanghai Port does not seem to plan to buy out Citadini, which has given Brazilian teams an opportunity to poach him. Citadini's departure is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Shanghai Port. His outstanding performance has won him the favor of Brazilian teams, but for Port, it means further weakening of the midfield. Previously, Port had already lost their midfield core Oscar, whose organizational ability and passing vision are an indispensable part of the team's offensive system. Bargos' departure also weakened Port's flank strength, as his individual ability and默契配合 with Wu Lei were important weapons for the team's attacks. Now, with the possible departure of Citadini, Port's midfield will face a reshuffle. This Brazilian midfielder's stability in defense and creativity in attack are what the team needs. His departure, coupled…
