Recently, according to domestic football insiders, Changchun Yatai's midfield core, Liao Chengjian, is highly likely to join Wuhan Three Towns during the winter transfer window. Liao's contract with his former club Yatai has expired, which means he will join as a free agent. As a result, Wuhan Three Towns can acquire this prime midfielder without spending a single penny, bringing great comfort to many fans. Liao has been an absolute mainstay in Yatai's lineup over the past three seasons. Whenever Yatai finds themselves in a deadlock during matches, Liao is always the first to step up. Known for his relentless energy on the field, Liao dedicates himself fully to every game. His move to Wuhan Three Towns should allow him to perfectly replace Zhang Xiaobin. Zhang is an absolute hero for Wuhan Three Towns, having been a key player since their time in the China League One. Wuhan Three Towns' promotion from League One to the Chinese Super League (CSL) and their championship-winning season after promotion were largely due to Zhang's contributions. Despite encountering wage arrears issues over the past two seasons, Zhang did not choose to leave Wuhan Three Towns immediately. Instead, he remained with the team for two seasons, earning the recognition of the fans. Now that Zhang's contract with Wuhan Three Towns has expired, he has chosen not to continue. Therefore, Wuhan Three Towns needs to strengthen their midfield once again. Coincidentally, Yatai's starting midfielder Liao Chengjian's contract with the club has also expired. Wuhan Three Towns has signed Liao for free and offered him a lucrative…

On the afternoon of January 3rd, Serginho finally arrived in Beijing! This Brazilian midfielder, who once played for the Japanese J-League powerhouse Kashima Antlers and then spent five years with Changchun Yatai, is not far from officially being naturalized into China. Look at this guy, despite the long journey, he arrived at the airport with a smile on his face, interacting passionately with the fans on-site, which made everyone so happy! Not only did he hold up a Beijing Guoan scarf, but he also took the initiative to sign autographs and take photos with fans, he is simply a big sweetheart, really the future star of Guoan! The arrival of Serginho will undoubtedly have a profound impact on Chinese football. Regardless of whether he has the opportunity to play for the national team immediately, just looking at his professional experience over the years is enough to make people's eyes light up. From Kashima Antlers to Changchun Yatai, this guy is no ordinary person. In Japan, he helped the team win the AFC Champions League title, proving himself on the Asian stage. After joining Changchun Yatai, he became the attacking core of the team, making 100 appearances, contributing 30 goals and 23 assists. Such performance, just looking at the data, is enough to make people full of expectations for him. Serginho's market value is also impressive! According to Transfermarkt, his current value is 1.8 million euros, which is quite high in the Chinese football world. You know, many Chinese national team players' values are not as high as his. This also…

Translation of the article content into English: The first transfer window for the 2025 Chinese Super League will be from January 6 to February 18, 2025. Although there are still 4 days before the window opens, 16 teams have basically determined most of their personnel acquisitions and departures, with only some foreign players needing to wait a bit longer. Shanghai Port As the defending champions, Shanghai Port currently has limited actions, but it is not ruled out that there will be major surprises in terms of foreign player acquisitions, especially since both "big kings" have left. Domestic Players: The team has signed national-level players such as Tao Qianglong and Tomorrow. The only departure is young player Li Shenyuan, who was loaned to Changchun Yatai last season. Foreign Players: It is well-known that Oscar, Bargas, and Citadini have left. The expected new foreign signings are likely to be Brazilian players. Shanghai Shenhua Shanghai Shenhua has set the goal of winning the championship for the new season, but their transfer moves are not significant, giving an impression of talking big with little investment. Fortunately, the team has a good age structure and strong bench depth. Domestic Players: No new players have been signed yet, as the domestic player reserves are sufficient. Departing players include retired Cao Yunding, contract-expired Wen Xiaojian, Jin Yangyang, Xu Yougang, and loaned-out Zhang Wei and Ma Zhen. Additionally, Xie Pengfei may also leave, though this is not yet confirmed. Foreign Players: Malele has left, and his replacement is the Serie B top scorer, Miracolo Meneiro (contract not yet…

In the 2024 season, Beijing Guoan finished 3 points behind Chengdu Rongcheng to secure fourth place in the league and earned a spot in the AFC Champions League second-tier competition! Facing the challenges of a three-front campaign in the new season, Beijing Guoan must not only change coaches but also strengthen their squad. Changing coaches has become a staple for Beijing Guoan at the end of each season in recent years. Suarez's tenure in the first half of the 2024 season was unsuccessful, but he gradually gave fans hope later on. However, after the season ended, Beijing Guoan did not choose to renew his contract. After Suarez's departure, none of the rumored coaches reported by the media arrived; instead, they chose Spanish coach Quique Setien. Setien's previous coaching record is nothing special, even somewhat lacking. Since the Guoan club chose him, there must be a reason for their choice. Setien is a coach who emphasizes midfield play and advocates ground-based attacking football, which may be why Beijing Guoan chose him, or perhaps Setien can prove himself at Beijing Guoan! Setien will arrive in Beijing on January 3rd, and new signing Serginho is already on a plane to Beijing. Changchun Yatai probably didn't expect that after playing for the club for 5 years, Serginho would end up wearing the Beijing Guoan jersey. On January 24th, Serginho will officially meet the conditions for naturalization. Since joining Changchun Yatai from Kashima Antlers on a free transfer on January 24, 2020, Serginho has been playing for Changchun Yatai. Serginho is an all-round player capable…

Due to the club's very limited funds, Changchun Yatai's performance in the league over the past two seasons has been difficult to satisfy. Last season, Yatai suffered consecutive defeats and ranked at the bottom of the table. In this situation, the club dismissed head coach Chen Yang and hired Xie Hui to replace him. After joining, Xie Hui quickly led Yatai out of the trough, and the team eventually achieved a good result of 9th place in the league. Therefore, Xie Hui will continue to serve as the team's head coach next season. Currently, Changchun Yatai is actively preparing for the upcoming league season. However, the team's midfield core, Brazilian attacking midfielder Serginho, has transferred to Beijing Guoan. Although Beijing Guoan has not officially announced Serginho's signing, the Brazilian midfielder has already traveled to Haikou to participate in the first winter training session with the Guoan team in 2025. Serginho's departure will undoubtedly have a significant impact on Yatai's frontcourt attack. Therefore, the club plans to introduce new attacking players to fill the void up front. Recently, domestic media reported that Yatai will sign a forward general during the winter transfer window. He is Xie Hui's protégé from his time coaching Dalian Pro, the former Guoan striker - Huanhuan Shan. The 25-year-old Huanhuan Shan comes from the Guoan youth training system and joined the Guoan youth team at the age of 14. Two years later, at just 16, he came off the bench in the Four Nations Tournament and scored a lightning-fast goal within a minute, helping the national youth…

Recently, former national football team coach Li Xiaopeng will officially appear in the Shandong football circle, coaching his hometown team Qingdao Seacow. Li Xiaopeng's abilities and prestige in Chinese football are no worse than Gao Hongbo's, the only thing he can't compare with is that Gao Hongbo once led Yatai to win the 07 season Super League championship. Li Xiaopeng has never won a championship with his team, and the closest he has ever been to a championship was when he led Luneng to the FA Cup final twice. If it had been a one-game winner-takes-all FA Cup final format at the time, Li Xiaopeng would have created the feat of leading Luneng to win the FA Cup championship twice in a row. However, Li Xiaopeng's luck was very bad, as he encountered a two-leg FA Cup final. Li Xiaopeng won the first leg both times, but was overturned by his opponents in the second leg. Therefore, Li Xiaopeng failed to lead the Shandong Taishan team to win the FA Cup championship and join the ranks of domestic championship-winning coaches. The highlight of Li Xiaopeng's coaching career later on was serving as the head coach of the national football team. Objectively speaking, Li Xiaopeng's appointment as the head coach of the national football team this time was purely a case of being forced into action. At that time, Li Tie, who was coaching the national football team late in his tenure, was heavily criticized by fans, making many fans feel that he should step down. The Chinese Football Association, under…

Recently, according to domestic media reports, the first major foreign aid for Guoan in the winter window has arrived, and it is Serginho. Serginho is a very capable player who once played as a starter in the Brazilian Serie A. Later, Serginho caught the last train of the Super League's gold rush football and joined the Yatai team. Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared, and this saying applies equally to Serginho. After joining Yatai, Serginho became the core of the team. Whenever Yatai was in a stalemate during the game, Serginho could step up immediately. The main reason Serginho has become a hot new signing for Guoan is that he will obtain naturalization qualifications this month. Guoan is preparing to naturalize Serginho, hoping that he can naturalize and play for the national team, which is something many fans look forward to. As we all know, the national team lacks people in the commander position. The national team once relied heavily on Wang Shangyuan in this position. After Wang Shangyuan took the starting position as the central midfielder, his overall performance was somewhat mediocre. Therefore, the national team coach Ivankovic hopes to make new discoveries in the central midfielder position. Then, Serginho, who once played as a starter in the Brazilian Serie A, is worth looking forward to by fans. Previously, there was no significant progress in Serginho's naturalization to the national team, mainly because no Super League club was willing to pay. Now that Guoan is willing to pay for Serginho's naturalization, the Football Association and the national…

On January 2nd at noon, Beijing time, the 29-year-old Brazilian midfielder Serginho posted a photo of himself on social media, announcing that he had set off to return to China. Notably, Serginho also excitedly displayed the bright red five-star flag, seemingly hinting that he is about to become naturalized and join the Chinese men's national football team. It is reported that Serginho departed from Sao Paulo, Brazil, and will transit through Doha, expected to arrive in Beijing at around 2:00 PM on the 3rd. Afterwards, he will head to Haikou to participate in the second phase of winter training with Beijing Guoan. Originally, Serginho planned to depart on the 4th, but as a candidate for naturalization, he needs to complete some necessary work procedures before joining the Guoan winter training, so he ultimately decided to leave two days earlier. It is worth noting that Serginho officially joined the Chinese league by signing with Changchun Yatai on January 24, 2020. If everything goes smoothly, theoretically, this Brazilian midfielder could complete his naturalization procedures as early as the 25th of this month. According to previous revelations from domestic media, the naturalization procedures for Serginho and another naturalization candidate, Oscar, are progressing very smoothly, with various relevant departments actively cooperating to help both players catch up with the 18th round of matches, rounds 7 and 8, starting in March. Born on March 15, 1995, Serginho plays as an attacking midfielder. Last season, as captain, he made 25 appearances for Yatai, contributing an impressive record of 8 goals and 8 assists. Serginho's technical characteristics…

Shanghai Port won the domestic double last season, but the championship squad quickly disbanded. The club is set to rebuild its team during a busy winter transfer window. Oscar was the first to leave, followed by Bargas, who will no longer play for Shanghai Port next season. Their departures have had a significant impact on the team. Now, another player has left the club. After releasing Bargas, Shanghai Port announced the third departure of the winter window! A 27-year-old veteran bid an emotional farewell to the team. Oscar was the midfield core of Shanghai Port, playing 248 games for the team, scoring 77 goals and providing 141 assists. He is the third-highest scorer in the club's history, behind Wu Lei with 238 goals and Lü Wenjun with 105 goals. Bargas played 85 times for Shanghai Port, scoring 20 goals and assisting 30 times, also a key player for the club. On the last day of 2024, local Shanghai Port player Li Shenyuan posted on social media, documenting his time at the club and the team honors he achieved, bidding farewell to the team. He wrote: "From 2014 to 2024, a decade comes to a brief end. Thank you to the club for nurturing me, thank you to everyone. Farewell for now, until we meet again, keep moving forward." Li Shenyuan progressed from the Shanghai Port youth training system to the reserve team and then to the first team, serving the club for ten years. Li Shenyuan represented the Shanghai National Games team in the Youth Games and the National Games,…
