The first training list of the national football team in 25 years has a total of 32 players selected. It is expected that when the two World Cup qualifiers against Saudi Arabia away and Australia at home in March are played, the main list of 23 Chinese players will be determined from this group. Wu Lei is definitely out due to injury, and it is highly likely that the naturalization procedures for Serginho and Oscar will not be completed by March. Among the 32-man training list, which 9 players will eventually miss out? Goalkeeper position: It is predicted that Han Jiaqi from Beijing Guoan will miss out Wang Dalei and Yan Junling are the basic lineup for the national team's goalkeeper position, with one of them being the starter and the other being the first substitute. Compared to Jian Tao, Han Jiaqi had a better performance last season, so he was chosen to stay. Defensive line: It is predicted that Wei Zhen from Shanghai Port, Han Pengfei from Tianjin Jinmen Tiger, and Wu Mitijiang from Wuhan Three Towns will miss out Wei Zhen has good hardware talent and a good attitude towards the game, but his defensive instincts are poor, and his positioning and judgment of the ball's landing point are not good. Han Pengfei is now 31 years old and does not have the same value for development as Wu Shaoc

The first training session of the year for the Chinese men's national football team, organized in Hainan, has concluded. The results of the evaluation conducted by head coach Ivanković on several new national players have also been released. According to reports from related media and sources, three new national players have successfully passed the evaluation and will remain with the team to play against Saudi Arabia and Australia in the upcoming 18-strong match in March. Who are these three new national players? Please continue reading to find out! The first is Hou Yongyong! His selection this time was a natural fit. It is reported that Ivanković had long wanted to recruit Hou Yongyong for an assessment. However, due to Hou Yongyong's previous involvement with Lanhjem in the Norwegian First Division in Europe, it was very inconvenient for him to travel back and forth. Long-distance travel could potentially affect the player's condition if he turned out to be unsuitable. Nonetheless, Hou Yongyong remained under Ivanković's observation. Honestly, as the top scorer and MVP of the Norwegian First Division, Hou Yongyong undoubtedly possesses a certain level of ability. Therefore, during this winter break, Ivanković specially arranged for Hou Yongyong to join the national team for an assessment. Currently, the assessment results for Hou Yongyong appear to be positive. Moreover, a key point is that Hou Yongyong is about to join the newly promoted Yunnan Yulong team in the Chinese Super League. This way, Hou Yongyong can be called up by Ivanković at any time. The second is Wu Shaocong. Previously, Wu Shaocong…

In a friendly match between Guoan and Yatai, the outstanding performance of new signing Serginho has drawn widespread attention from fans. This player, who is about to complete his naturalization process, not only demonstrated excellent offensive and defensive capabilities in the game but also provided Chinese football with hope for solving the long-standing problem at the holding midfielder position! In this match against his former club Yatai, Serginho's performance can be described as perfect. He showcased his strong organizational skills and defensive awareness on the field, effectively stifling the opponent's attacks while quickly organizing counterattacks. Such an all-round holding midfielder is exactly what the national team urgently needs at present. It is worth noting that Serginho's naturalization process has entered its final stage. According to the current progress, he is likely to represent the national team in the crucial match against Saudi Arabia in March this year. This news is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the national team coach Ivanković. Looking back, the national team has always had a weakness at the single holding midfielder position. Coach Ivanković has tried out several players, but the results have been unsatisfactory. Gao Tianyi, a Shanghai Shenhua player, is a typical example. After making a low-level mistake in the match against Thailand, he never got another chance to be heavily relied upon. Although Wang Shangyuan performed relatively stable in this position, his contributions in the attacking end were somewhat lacking. It is precisely against this backdrop that the arrival of Serginho becomes particularly important. After the end of last season, he…

Recently, the highly anticipated national football team has started its first training session of the new year in the warm and pleasant city of Haikou. This training session sees head coach Ivanković taking a hands-on approach, personally guiding each training content. The focus of the training is not only on enhancing the players' physical fitness to ensure they have abundant energy and endurance on the field but also on a crucial task: conducting a comprehensive and in-depth review of last year's 18-team competition to identify problems and learn from experiences in order to formulate more targeted and effective strategies for the upcoming matches against Saudi Arabia and Australia in March. Originally, the national team planned to call up 32 players for this training session; however, due to the absence of naturalized player Fernandinho, the number of training players became 31. Regarding this change, head coach Ivanković clearly responded that it did not have a substantial impact on the team's training arrangements. After all, the team's overall strategy and training plan are based on the team's overall strength and tactical needs, and the absence of individual players will not disrupt the overall rhythm and deployment. During this national team training, naturalized player Hou Yongyong, who was selected for the national team for the first time, unsurprisingly became the focus of media and fans' attention. Head coach Ivanković gave him special attention. Hou Yongyong's performance in the Norwegian domestic league last season was astonishing; he scored 19 goals and contributed 8 assists. With such outstanding performances, he won the honors of the…

Wei Shihao, a member of the Chinese national football team, recently gave an interview to the media, stating that the current atmosphere for the team's preparations is very good, which has sparked heated discussions among fans. The Chinese national football team is currently under the leadership of head coach Ivankovic, preparing for the World Cup qualifiers starting in March. Ivankovic originally did not plan to conduct winter training with the national team, but due to the main competitors for qualification such as Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and Indonesia all engaging in warm-up matches, the Chinese team needed to keep up or risk falling behind. After comprehensive consideration, Coach Ivankovic decided to start winter training in the new year. For this purpose, Ivankovic called up 32 national team players, but Fernandinho was unable to attend due to personal reasons. As a result, the actual number of players present for this training session is 31. Despite Fernandinho's absence, the team's preparations have not been affected. On the contrary, Wei Shihao brought good news to the fans during his media interview, stating that the team's preparation atmosphere is excellent and everyone is full of energy. The reason for the positive atmosphere is Ivankovic's promotion of newcomers into the national team. Many players only realized their dream of joining the national team after Ivankovic took over. Therefore, they all cherish this hard-won opportunity and are fully committed in training and matches. Additionally, Wei Shihao expressed confidence that he and his teammates can secure direct qualification for China. As we all know, the national team performed…

Hello everyone, I am Gui Zai, a blogger who always pays attention to the development of Chinese football. Today, I want to talk to you about the hot topic of the national team recently - the launch of the 2025 winter training led by veteran coach Ivankovic, and whether the naturalized player Delgado will become the new force of the national team, which is highly concerned by fans. Under the leadership of Ivankovic, the men's national football team has already opened the curtain of the 2025 winter training. This training session, Ivankovic carefully selected 32 national players to form a luxurious training lineup. It is worth mentioning that although 32 people were recruited, only 31 people participated in this training. The absent player is Fernandinho, who chose to give up joining the national team's training plan because his contract with Shenhua expired without renewal. For Fernandinho's absence, Ivankovic showed great understanding and respect, and did not force him to participate. Such an attitude undoubtedly highlights the wisdom and tolerance of Ivankovic as an old coach. However, Fernandinho's absence also sparked heated discussions among fans. Everyone speculated whether the national team would take this opportunity to add new naturalized players. After all, in today's international football arena, naturalized players have become an important way to enhance the strength of the team. Among the many potential naturalized candidates, Delgado's name stands out. Delgado is indeed a promising option. He has played for European giants such as Inter Milan and Benfica, accumulating rich game experience. Although his development at Inter Milan did not…

The national football team is about to usher in a new round of training camp, with only two days left before the official gathering, and everyone is eagerly awaiting it. This training camp will be led by coach Ivankovic, who has rich experience and is sure to bring significant changes to the team. The list of new squad recruits has been announced, with a total of 32 players selected, but some familiar faces have failed to make the cut. In particular, Liu Dianzuo, Jiang Guangtai, and Wu Lei, who were once considered core players, their omission is like pouring salt on the fans' wounds, especially Liu Dianzuo, whose omission seems more like a signal for a lineup reform. To be honest, Jiang Guangtai and Wu Lei were dropped due to injuries, which can be understood. In competitive sports, injuries are always an inevitable enemy for athletes, but as long as they recover and regain their form, returning to the national team is not a big problem. However, Liu Dianzuo's situation is different. He was excluded from the squad due to coach Ivankovic's promotion of a "youth strategy." The core of this strategy is clearly to accelerate the renewal and replacement of the team, allowing more young players to showcase themselves on the international stage. Although this approach has its rationality, it also makes the prospects of some veterans precarious. Taking Liu Dianzuo as an example, he has always been the iron gate in front of the national team's goal, with very high stability, especially his experience is invaluable to the…

Last week, the highly anticipated official announcement of the new training squad for the national football team was made, which includes a total of 32 players actively preparing for the two crucial top 18 qualifiers set to kick off in March, against strong opponents Saudi Arabia and Australia. According to detailed statistical data, the average age of the new national team training squad is 26.7 years old, clearly reflecting the national team's strategy of optimizing its age structure. Among them, it is noteworthy that a total of 11 post-00s players have been selected, with Hou Yongyong, Mai Wulong, Jian Tao, and Wu Mitijiang all donning the national team's jersey for the first time. This move fully demonstrates head coach Ivan Kozlovic's firm determination to continue promoting the rejuvenation of the national team. For example, in past games, young players were often questioned due to their lack of experience, but Ivan Kozlovic dared to break conventions and boldly启用newcomers, a boldness that has won warm acclaim from many fans. With newcomers entering the national team camp, it inevitably means that there will be old ones exiting. For instance, Wu Lei, Jiang Guangtai, and Liu Dianzuo, with Liu Dianzuo, the goalkeeper, already 34 years old, it is reasonable for him to be abandoned by Ivan Kozlovic from the perspective of competitive form and long-term development. The younger Jian Tao, on the other hand, serves as a reserve force for the national team's goalkeeping talent, adding more possibilities for future matches. Furthermore, an in-depth analysis of the distribution of players from various clubs reveals…
