Currently, the Chinese Super League is still in the off-season, and the entry issue of the Super League has attracted the special attention of fans. At present, Cangzhou Lions are still very dangerous. Not only are the players demanding wages, but also the head coach Li Xiaopeng has fled. Li Xiaopeng has already been confirmed to coach Qingdao Hainiu, which is undoubtedly good news for Qingdao Hainiu. In the new season, Li Xiaopeng will lead Qingdao Hainiu to continue to complete the relegation mission. Last season, Qingdao Hainiu's relegation road was very thrilling, and the team finally completed the relegation task with a slight advantage. Therefore, if you want to be able to successfully complete the relegation in the new season, you must strengthen during this off-season. The team first changed the head coach, and it has been proved that in the relegation task, local coaches are even more suitable than foreign coaches. After confirming the head coach, the lineup needs to be strengthened. Li Xiaopeng locked his attention on his old club Shandong Taishan. According to Shandong media, there are currently three players in Taishan team who are most likely to follow Li Xiaopeng to join Qingdao Hainiu. First of all, Song Long, who joined Qingdao Hainiu on loan this season, returned to Taishan team after the end of the lease period, but his contract expired at the end of the year, and there was no news about being renewed by Taishan team. Therefore, it is very likely that Song Long will follow Li Xiaopeng back to Qingdao Hainiu…

The 2025 season of the Chinese Super League (CSL) will kick off with its first round of matches from February 21st to 23rd. The winter transfer window will be open between January 6th and February 18th. All CSL teams are actively seeking cost-effective domestic and foreign players to enhance their performance in the new season. Among the 16 teams preparing for the CSL, five have either already changed or are about to change their head coaches. Beijing Guoan was the first team to announce a coaching change. On the 10th of last month, after nearly 544 days in charge, [Suarez] stepped down, and he was replaced by [Setien] from Spain. However, the first phase of the team's winter training was conducted by an assistant coach, and Setien is expected to join the team next week. Beijing Guoan will face a busy schedule this year, participating in three competitions, making squad reinforcement a necessity. Wuhan Three Towns announced the departure of their most high-profile coach in club history, [Ricardo], who had been in charge for 344 days and has since returned to Japan. The team has not yet officially announced their new coach, but it is rumored that Portuguese [Felipe Martins] will take over. He is also expected to bring two foreign players to China, reducing the time needed to select foreign talent. In the new season, Wuhan Three Towns faces a rebuilding of their lineup, aiming for relegation survival after a period of low morale and high expectations. Zhejiang announced the departure of [Jordi], who had coached the team for…

After a long absence, Qingdao native coach Li Xiaopeng has made a decision that has garnered widespread attention in the football world - he is set to return to Qingdao Hainiu. For him, this is akin to a homecoming journey. During the 2024 season, he had served as the coach of Hainiu, and despite facing challenges at the time, it laid the groundwork for his current return. Now, after his contract with Cangzhou Lions expired, he decisively chose to return to his hometown team and once again take on the responsibility. His series of actions upon returning to Qingdao have drawn significant attention. Li Xiaopeng's return has caused quite a stir, as he plans to bring in a batch of reinforcements from his former club, Shandong Taishan. It is said that Li Xiaopeng wants to recruit three former national team players, Song Long, Duan Liu Yu, and Liu Binbin, under his wing. They were all very important players for Taishan, with Song Long having rich experience on the flanks and a tight defense; Duan Liu Yu achieving fame at a young age, outstanding football intelligence, and great talent in midfield orchestration; Liu Binbin possessing explosive power and lightning speed. However, taking these players will not be an easy task. The club management has explicitly stated that they are cautious about the transfers of these players, and there are even insiders revealing that they are prepared to offer them salary increases for renewals, aiming to keep them. But Li Xiaopeng will not give up easily. Relying on his past relationships with…

Li Xiaopeng's tenure with Cangzhou Mighty Lions is coming to an end, and this contract termination is not related to Li Xiaopeng's own abilities but rather due to financial difficulties faced by Cangzhou Mighty Lions. It is reported that despite being on the debt-clearing list for entry, the team has found players to file complaints, making Li Xiaopeng's departure almost inevitable. After leaving Cangzhou Mighty Lions, where will Li Xiaopeng go next? Many fans hope that Li Xiaopeng can return to Shandong Luneng, where he once delivered impressive results. Additionally, there is currently a dispute between Shandong Luneng and Cuikexing, and if Shandong Luneng were to forcibly terminate Cuikexing's contract, they would need to pay a substantial amount in compensation. After paying Cuikexing, they might not have enough funds to cover the salary of a new coach. At this point, choosing a domestic coach seems like a good option, and if selecting a domestic coach, Li Xiaopeng is undoubtedly a great choice. He is familiar with the situation in Shandong football, has sufficient coaching experience, and most importantly, his salary is not high. Can Li Xiaopeng return to Shandong Luneng? Perhaps many Shandong Luneng fans scoff at Li Xiaopeng, but he is actually quite sought after during the off-season. For example, Taishan Team News announced Li Xiaopeng's destination. While fans are still focused on whether Li Xiaopeng will return to Shandong Luneng, another team from Shandong has already made a move, which is Shandong Qingdao West Coast Men's Football Team. According to the report from Taishan Team News, Li Xiaopeng…
