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

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…

Translation of the article content into English: Not an official announcement! Not a rumor! The latest training list for the Chinese men's national football team has finally been released after much anticipation. Thirty-two players will head to Haikou to embark on a new round of preparation. This list includes familiar veterans and promising newcomers, bringing joy to some and disappointment to others. With the World Cup qualifiers in March just around the corner, facing strong opponents like Saudi Arabia and Australia, can this newly formed national team shoulder the heavy burden? Today, let's delve into the stories behind this list. Coach Ivanković's selection strategy this time can be described as seeking change within stability. In defense, experienced veterans such as Wang Dalei, Jiang Shenglong, and Zhu Chenjie continue to anchor the team, providing stable defensive support. In midfield, there is a mix of experienced veterans and energetic newcomers, aiming to enhance control and creativity. Up front, Fernandinho continues to be selected, but whether he can solve the issue of the national team's lack of firepower remains to be seen. The most attention-grabbing aspect of this list is undoubtedly the omission of several big names and the inclusion of new young talents. Core players Wu Lei, Jiang Guangtai, and Alan are absent due to injuries, which undoubtedly affects the overall strength of the national team. Wu Lei's speed and impact, Jiang Guangtai's defensive toughness, and Alan's experience and technical skills are all indispensable to the national team. Their absence also presents opportunities for other players. Especially the addition of several newcomers…

The national football team has announced its latest training squad list, with a total of 32 players selected. In addition to the well-known veterans, there are 6 new faces in this training session. So what are their characteristics, and who is most likely to play in the next stage of the World Cup qualifiers. The six new players are almost spread across all lines: 1 Goalkeeper Jian Tao In fact, Jian Tao is not the first time he has been selected for the national team. This time, the national team recruited four goalkeepers, and the original national goalkeeper Liu Dianzuo was not selected. This time, Jian Tao replaced him. Currently, Wang Dalei and Yan Junling are definitely the first and second goalkeepers. Jian Tao will compete with Han Jiaqi for the third goalkeeper. In fact, Jian Tao and Han Jiaqi have similar characteristics, both being quick in response, but they are young and lack experience. It is possible for either of them to stay. 2 Defense Line Wu Shaocong From Radomiak in the Polish Super League in Europe, he can play as a central defender and full-back. However, Xiao Wu has not played an official match for a long time, and his injury situation is also unclear, so it is expected that it will be difficult for him to stay. Wu Mitijiang A Xinjiang player from Wuhan Sanzhen, currently 20 years old, 182cm tall, strong physique, excellent explosive power, can play as a right-back and center-back, and plays desperately. He once suffered a head injury while fighting for the ball…

On January 3rd, the Chinese men's national football team announced its latest training squad list. From the 9th to the 18th of this month, the national team will be training in Haikou. This 32-man squad sees the continued absence of top star Wu Lei due to injury, while head coach Ivanković has called up many newcomers to continue the process of rejuvenation. Compared to the previous squad list announced in November last year for the preparation of the World Cup qualifiers' Asian zone 18-team round against Bahrain and Japan, there are significant changes: Liu Dianzuo, Jiang Guangtai, and Wu Lei did not make it into this squad list. Coach Ivan has called up eight new faces: Jian Tao, Han Pengfei, Wu Shaocong, Wu Mitijiang, Huang Zhengyu, Maiwulang, Yang Liyu, and Hou Yongyong. Of course, this is just a training squad list, and Coach Ivan's goal is to better understand and familiarize himself with the players through training, laying the groundwork for selecting players for the upcoming 18-team round. There are two major surprises in this national team squad list: Firstly, the national team has become younger. The average age of this 32-man squad is 26.7 years old, with only goalkeeper Wang Dalei being from the 80s generation. Eleven players, including Jian Tao, Zhu Chenjie, Jiang Shenglong, Hu Hetao, Wu Mitijiang, Xie Weneng, and Tao Qianglong, are post-00s. Two young players, Maiwulang Mijiti and Wu Mitijiang Yuspup, were both born in 2004. The rise of the post-00s generation has become a mainstay. Looking at the age structure, the selection of players…

According to the arrangements of the Football Association, on January 8th next year, the Chinese men's football team will start a new round of training in order to better prepare for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers. After the first six rounds of the World Cup qualifiers, the national team has two wins and four losses, accumulating 6 points. Although they are at the bottom of the standings, they are actually only one point behind second-placed Australia, so there is still a great chance of qualifying. From the previous six rounds of matches, head coach Ivan Kozlovic is not an incompetent coach. He has his own unique insights in terms of troop deployment and tactical play. Especially his boldness in starting young stars surpasses all previous national team coaches. The recent consecutive victories of the national team have also greatly changed Ivan Kozlovic's reputation, turning him from the once universally criticized "old rogue" into a coach gradually recognized by fans. In order to perform well in the last four rounds of the World Cup qualifiers next year, it is expected that Ivan Kozlovic will carry out a major reshuffle of the current main lineup of the national team. Some well-known but underperforming national players may be cleaned up by Ivan; while some young stars who performed well in the Chinese Super League may firmly establish their main positions in the national team. Judging from the performance of the first six rounds of the World Cup qualifiers, the following three influential but average-performing national team main players may be reluctantly abandoned by…

The Chinese national football team is currently on vacation, with only a few days left until the New Year. However, their attention is focused on the Arabian Gulf Cup, where two of their opponents in the top 18 group, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, have already made their appearances. To prepare for the resumption of the top 18 matches next March, the national team plans to hold a temporary training camp in Haikou next month, which will be personally led by head coach Ivankovic. There is now new information about the time and number of players for the new training session. According to "Beijing Youth Daily", the national team is expected to gather in Haikou around January 8th, with the training period not exceeding 10 days. Coach Ivankovic will formulate a detailed preparation plan based on the performance of Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, along with other coaching staff members. Media reports also suggest that the coaching staff is expected to call up about 30 players for this training session. Some older players, such as Wu Lei, are absent due to injury, while newcomers like Wu Shaocong and Wumiti Jiang may be selected. Looking at the lineup from the top 18 matches, the national team has gradually completed the transition between old and new players, with an average age dropping to 27. Only one player over 30 years old remains, goalkeeper Wang Dalei. The rest of the positions are filled with new and mid-generation players, who are the main force for the 2026 World Cup campaign. Among them, head coach Ivankovic is…
