Jiang Zhipeng is a formidable left-back in Chinese football, known for his sharp dribbling, precise crosses, and consistently high-level competitive form, which has kept him among the top domestic left-backs. He entered the national team at the age of 24 in May 2013. Under coaches Alain Perrin, Gao Hongbo, and Marcello Lippi, his outstanding performances gradually made him the starting left-back for the national team, participating in the 2015 Asian Cup and the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers in the Asian zone.

Despite approaching 36 years old, he remains sought after in the Chinese Super League transfer market. According to football media "Live Bar," including newly promoted Yunnan Yulong, no less than three teams have shown interest in signing him. However, it was eventually the second-year Chinese Super League team, Shenzhen New Pegasus, backed by the British City Football Group, that took the lead and successfully signed Jiang Zhipeng.

Despite only finishing fifth in the 2024 season, Shandong Taishan remains a focal point for media attention, primarily due to the team's rich heritage. Since its inception, the Taishan club has consistently competed at championship levels, experiencing occasional dips but generally leading the direction of professional football leagues in China, particularly in terms of youth training. Taishan is brimming with talent, as evidenced by the recent inclusion of Buyu Lang in the national team. However, the club also faces challenges in transitioning between generations, with an older average age being one of the main reasons for last season's performance decline. To address this, Taishan is seeking change. On one hand, they are tapping into their youth training program to promote outstanding players to the first team, enhancing the team's vitality while reducing the average age. On the other hand, they are looking to improve the age structure through new signings, with players under 30 expected to become the norm. Following the departures of players like Tong Lei, Sun Guowen, and Liao Lisheng, Taishan is now seeking new recruits that better suit the team. Previously, there were rumors about the club's interest in signing the 29-year-old forward, Tang Chuang. Now, after Choi Kang-hee's return, these rumors have been confirmed by informed media sources. Tang Chuang is set to sign with Taishan and join the team's preparations for the new season. Fans often associate Tang Chuang with late blooming. Over the past three seasons, Tang Chuang, who started his career with Qingdao Hongshi, has made significant strides. In the 2021 season, he…

The famous football city of Dalian has finally gained another Super League team, Dalian Inbo, who have just been promoted from the China League One. To perform well in the new season of the Super League, Dalian Inbo Club has introduced several new players during the winter transfer window, among whom the joining of former Tianjin Tiger captain Song Yue has received particular attention. The 33-year-old Song Yue started his career at Jiangsu Suning's football youth training system and entered Tianjin Hehai University in 2010 as a football talent. During his time at university, Song Yue excelled in the Chinese College Football League, demonstrating not only a tough playing style and comprehensive skills but also representing the Chinese college football team at the 28th World University Games, where he performed commendably. After graduating from Hehai University, Song Yue officially began his professional career. He has played for teams such as Suzhou Dongwu and Nantong Zhiyun, gradually accumulating valuable match experience. In the 2020 season, Song Yue experienced an important turning point in his career by joining Tianjin Teda (Tianjin Jinmen Tiger).

During his time with the Jinmen Tigers, Song Yue won the trust of head coach Yu Genwei with his outstanding performance and was awarded the captain's armband. However, due to an impulsive behavior, Song Yue quickly lost his position in the team. In a Super League match in the 2022 season, Song Yue…

From a prodigious talent to facing professional challenges, Bugalahang's story mirrors the tragedy of a "thousand-mile horse not meeting its Bo Le," but behind this lies not just an individual's plight, but a reflection of the deep-seated issues within Chinese football. Unpaid wages, team disbandments, and a lack of avenues for redress—these things that sound like anecdotes have become the stark reality of Bugalahang's brief career. Bugalahang came from Evergrande's youth training ranks, where he was one of the key young players being groomed. His talent once shone brightly. As a midfield core player, he not only had excellent ball control but also a keen sense of the game and dribbling skills, which made people hopeful about his future. At that time, Bugalahang was seen as the hope for Evergrande and even Chinese football. Everyone believed that given time, he would become a pillar of the Chinese football scene. Unfortunately, while dreams are full, reality is bony. In 2019, he joined Evergrande's first team, expecting it to be the highlight of his career, but little did he know it would mark the beginning of his difficulties. In 2021, Evergrande's financial crisis began to show, with many players' wages being withheld. Bugalahang was not spared, and two short years later, he was forced to transfer to Shijiazhuang, seeking new opportunities. After joining Shijiazhuang, Bugalahang finally became a regular starter, playing 15 games for the team. His stable performance seemed to have finally found him his place. However, fate had other plans—Shijiazhuang's wage arrears were worse than Evergrande's. After working hard for…

In this winter, amidst the howling cold winds, Chinese football has given us a warm expectation. A recent set of statistics has greatly uplifted the spirits of fans: the national team has achieved an impressive record of 4 wins and 1 draw in their last five matches! Such achievements not only demonstrate the team's improved strength but also instill a sense of hope. What transformations has this team undergone? How has their playing style been completely renewed? Let's delve into the rise of this Chinese football team together. Firstly, the tactical adjustments made by the team have been quite successful. The new head coach quickly reorganized the team's playing style upon taking office. The old, rigid, and less innovative tactical configurations have now been replaced with more flexible and targeted tactics. This change allows players to not only showcase their individual abilities but also form excellent teamwork on the field. Imagine players on the field no longer fighting alone but working together like a well-oiled machine, passing trust between each other. This change is clearly rooted in the coaching staff's emphasis on the psychological qualities of the players. They have honed the players' adaptability and response to on-field situations through various drills, ensuring that everyone can make the best decision at critical moments. Next, we must mention the players' performances. In the past, many fans were disappointed in Chinese football not only because of the team's overall lack of strength but also due to some players' underwhelming performances in key moments.

Translation of the article content into English: The four best players in the 2024 Chinese Super League (CSL) have been announced, with three of them being widely recognized as deserving, while one has sparked controversy among fans who question their selection. The fans are asking, "Why?" In the 2024 season, Shanghai Port successfully defended their CSL championship title with a record of 25 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses, accumulating 78 points. Wu Lei, who scored 34 goals for the team, was awarded both the Top Scorer and Best Player titles. Wu Lei's recognition as the best is well-deserved; he played in all 30 matches and scored 34 goals without a single penalty kick. Despite criticism from some quarters, Wu Lei remains the best player in Chinese football today. Muskat took over Shanghai Port in his first year and led the team to retain their championship title. Some fans might argue that the team's strong lineup could have won with any coach, but Muskat's abilities cannot be overlooked; otherwise, the trophy might have gone to their neighbors, Shanghai Shenhua. Fans were so impressed with Muskat's leadership that they even hoped he could coach the national team. Muskat's recognition as the Best Coach of the 2024 CSL season is also well-deserved. In the competition for the Best Young Player award, 21-year-old Hu He from Chengdu Rongcheng emerged as the winner. In the 2024 season, Hu He made a total of 16 appearances for Chengdu Rongcheng, starting in 9 matches, scoring 2 goals, and providing 1 assist. He was also selected for…

As of January 8th, Beijing time, let's continue to pay attention to domestic football and domestic sports. The Shandong Taishan team has officially assembled in Jinan on January 6th and will head to Shanghai for the first phase of training on the 8th. This training session will last for a month, with the team taking a few days off during the Spring Festival. It is reported that there are three main reasons for choosing Shanghai this time. Firstly, head coach Choi Kang-hee has been living in Shanghai for a long time, which is convenient for his travel and family care. Secondly, last year's expensive foreign aid Zeke suffered a serious injury during training in Hainan, which made the coaching staff of Choi Kang-hee somewhat cautious, even a bit shadowed. Thirdly, it is convenient for the national players to gather and travel for AFC Champions League matches. From the previously announced dynamics of the Taishan team, players such as Liu Yang, Liu Binbin, Liu Guobao, and Wang Tong are all present, and the main players such as Crescencio, Zeke, and Kaza will also arrive one after another. As for the team's more concerned foreign aid defender Jadeson, whether he can return smoothly has also attracted the attention of fans and media. However, on the 7th, Shandong media reporter Niuzhiming also revealed the latest news about Jadeson. He posted that Jadeson is currently in Brazil and has not returned to Jinan for the team's physical examination. This means that whether Jadeson can return smoothly in the new season is still unknown. At…

Recently, Shandong Taishan's Brazilian Sports Football Club faced off against Shenzhen Youth, who had just been promoted to the China League One. The main purpose of this friendly match for the Brazilian team was to showcase their foreign players to potential buyers. As a result, they put on an impressive performance in both attack and defense. After 90 minutes of intense play, the Brazilian team emerged victorious with a resounding 4-0 win over Shenzhen Youth. Notably, after the game, Shenzhen Youth expressed great satisfaction with the performance of two players from Shandong Taishan's Brazilian team and are interested in further discussions. The Brazilian team will continue to play against Shenzhen Youth, during which the opposing coach will make a final decision on whether these two foreign players can join their club. Since being promoted to the China League One, Shenzhen Youth has been quick to strengthen their squad. Firstly, they signed veteran goalkeeper Cheng Yuele, who is a very capable player and has previously been selected for the national team under Gao Hongbo, even earning caps. Cheng established himself as the starting goalkeeper at Guangzhou R&F and became a key player for the team. Despite his advanced age, Cheng remains a reliable presence for Meizhou Hakka. Cheng's desire to return to the Shenzhen football scene in the twilight of his career and represent Shenzhen Youth is evident. Meanwhile, under the organization of Shandong Taishan, the Brazilian team came to China to play games with the aim of promoting their players. The players of the Brazilian team are all very promising,…
