Recently, according to media reports, Delgado, who had just renewed his contract with Shandong Taishan, is set to leave the team again. His next destination will be a loan move to Chengdu Rongcheng, which has left many Shandong fans in awe of this surprising move. First, according to Transfermarkt, Delgado's contract with Shandong Taishan was due to expire on December 31, 2024. When Shandong Taishan started their winter training in Shanghai, Delgado did not return to the team in time. In this situation, Shandong fans believed that the club must not have renewed Delgado's contract. After all, Delgado's performance last season for Shandong Taishan was mixed. On one hand, Delgado scored efficiently for Shandong Taishan, often scoring goals in limited playing time. Judging by the goal-scoring statistics alone, Delgado ranked among the top in the team. On the other hand, Delgado's style of play was too lackadaisical; he would stand there with a blank stare when he lost possession, showing no intention of tracking back defensively. As a result, Delgado was criticized by Luneng fans as a "stroller." In summary, Luneng fans could understand the club's decision not to renew Delgado's contract. Just when everyone thought Delgado was likely to leave Shandong Taishan, he suddenly returned to the club's training base and confirmed it with a photo. At this point, Luneng fans thought that Delgado's fate with Luneng might experience a major reversal. There was hope that Delgado would sign a new contract with Luneng and continue to play for the club next season. As we all know, Delgado will…

After Elkeson's departure, Chengdu Rongcheng has been left with an empty slot for naturalized players, which is expected to be filled in the new season. Recent reports suggest that Delgado will be loaned to Chengdu Rongcheng, but is he worth the anticipation? Delgado joined Shandong Taishan in 2018, embarking on his journey in the Chinese Super League (CSL), and successfully gained Chinese citizenship the following year. However, his career in China has been fraught with twists and turns, falling short of expectations. At Shandong Taishan, he never received significant attention and was loaned out several times. Once loaned to the Portuguese league, he played a minor role, making only four appearances without any notable achievements, returning to Shandong Taishan with just a yellow card. Later, he was twice loaned to teams in the China League One but failed to secure a place in the starting lineup. Despite this, Delgado is a player with distinct characteristics. Hailing from Portuguese youth training, he possesses good technical skills and spent a considerable amount of time in the Inter Milan youth ranks. However, judging from his performance in China, he struggled to integrate into the team, exhibiting traits similar to Mario Balotelli, occasionally appearing to "ponder life," and giving off an impression of laziness on the field. Perhaps it is these personality factors that have made it difficult for him to gain sufficient recognition and favor. In reality, if we objectively analyze the data, his efficiency is quite commendable. For instance, in the 2021 season, he played a total of 18 games for Shandong…

On January 13th, Beijing time, after Shandong Taishan's naturalized player Delgado posted a photo of his solo training in Jinan, it seems that the future for Delgado, who has become a domestic player this season, is not clear. The famous journalist "European Football Recorder" specifically published a post detailing Delgado's situation, and the journalist believes that Delgado's signal to the outside world is that he is about to leave the team. The "European Football Recorder" said that Delgado is pitiful, as he has been excluded from winter training by Cui Kangxi and was not allowed by Cui Kangxi to participate in the winter training in Shanghai. In this situation, his biggest possibility is to leave the team. After Delgado posted his own photo with the words "Training alone," some Taishan fans analyzed that the reason why Delgado did not go to Shanghai with the team was because his contract had not been finalized. Considering Delgado's special return from his hometown to Shandong Taishan, it is unlikely that he did not follow the team to Shanghai because of a contract dispute. If it were really due to too big a disagreement over the renewal contract, he would not have needed to transfer back to Shandong Taishan and stay at the Taishan team base for training. Judging from Delgado's willingness to stay at the Taishan base for training, he himself should be inclined to renew his contract and stay with the Taishan team. As for whether not going to Shanghai is the reason reported by the famous journalist "European Football Recorder," it…

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 year 2025 is just around the corner, and currently, various Chinese Super League (CSL) clubs are preparing for the new season, with many already having transfer targets in mind. It is believed that once the winter transfer window opens for the CSL, these clubs will quickly announce the signings of their new players. However, Shandong Taishan, a traditional powerhouse in the CSL, has not made significant moves in the recent transfer market. Instead, several key players have been confirmed to be leaving the team. Currently, Tong Lei, Sun Guowen, and Liao Lisheng have all confirmed their departures. In terms of foreign players, Pato and Delgado were unable to secure contract renewals with the club and have left the team. According to the latest news, Marcelo, the Brazilian central defender who joined the team this summer, has also not received a contract renewal from Taishan Club and will not be able to stay with the team next season. As a semi-professional player, Marcelo's performance in the league over the past half-season has far exceeded fans' expectations. He not only excelled defensively but also made contributions offensively, leading to his transfer value skyrocketing from 50,000 euros to 300,000 euros. Despite this, after careful consideration, the senior management of Taishan Club decided not to renew Marcelo's contract. Although Marcelo is a cost-effective foreign central defender, Taishan hopes to perform better in the upcoming CSL and FA Cup seasons, even aiming to compete for the championship. With this goal in mind, the club believes it needs to bring in higher-level players to enhance…
