Good News! A new foreign defensive midfielder has joined Beijing Guoan, bolstering their attacking line and making them serious contenders for the Chinese Super League (CSL) championship. The excitement is palpable as Beijing Guoan fans celebrate the arrival of a new powerhouse in their midfield. The team has been eagerly anticipating reinforcements since the departure of Li Ke, leaving a noticeable gap in their defensive midfield. However, with the winter transfer window open, Guoan has made a significant move by securing the services of Da Wan, a player who has already arrived in Haikou and is awaiting an official announcement. Da Wan's reputation precedes him, having made a significant impact in Japan's J-League with Gamba Osaka. Over three seasons, he has played more than a hundred matches, scoring over ten goals, and his efficiency on the field is impressive. In the recently concluded 2024 season, he was instrumental in the team's success, averaging high numbers in tackles, interceptions, and ball recoveries. His defensive prowess is rock-solid, and he also contributes to the attack, earning him a place among the top ten players in the league in terms of average rating. He is known as the "midfield brain" of Gamba Osaka. What stands out even more is Da Wan's impeccable disciplinary record, having not received a single red card in three seasons. His clean and professional approach to the game promises to significantly enhance Guoan's midfield strength and interception capabilities. With such a formidable presence in front of the defense, fans can rest assured that their team is well-protected. The good…

Recently, blogger "CSL Observer" revealed that Guoan's young players Liang Shaowen and Ruan Qilong, who were loaned out last season, are likely to leave the team. This news once again pushed the issue of talent loss in Guoan to the forefront. As the manager of the team, Li Ming is hard to escape responsibility! His presence at Guoan is simply a nightmare for Beijing fans. This person only cares about keeping his cronies, but turns a blind eye to many capable and promising young people, allowing them to slip away. Under his leadership, Guoan has become nothing but a name without a soul! After Zhonghe Group took over Guoan, it was hoped that they would bring new vitality, but it turned out to be just an empty shell disguised as Beijing. How can there be the essence of Beijing if one does not understand its flavor? They simply do not understand the hearts of Guoan fans! Renewing contracts with Wang Gang and Chi Zhongguo occupied precious registration spots, while Zhang Xizhe's performance plummeted after renewing his contract, lacking stamina. Such operations are hindering the transition between old and new players, ruining the bright future of Guoan! In fact, Guoan once had a short period where they raised a "youth storm." Back then, Stanley led a group of young players, intending to replace the older players and create a new Guoan. But what happened? In the second year, he was fired due to poor results, and the young players were "dispersed," while the older players returned to the field. What exactly…

Beijing Guoan Club has delivered a satisfying year-end summary to its fans, starting with the departure of last season's heavily criticized head coach Suarez. After careful consideration, they have chosen the Spanish coach Quique Setien, known for his attacking football style, to lead the coaching team. Setien's joining makes him the most prominent head coach in the Chinese Super League (CSL), with his experience coaching Barcelona and other famous clubs, giving Beijing fans endless expectations. In terms of players, the club has renewed contracts with three veterans Zhang Xizhe, Wang Gang, and Chi Zhongguo, showing the players the care of the club. Another meritorious captain Yu Dabao has transitioned to become a coach at the Guoan Youth Training Academy, which can be considered a proper arrangement for this meritorious captain. The outstanding player Cao Yongjing, who is in his prime, has received a top salary contract for four years, which is also the greatest recognition for this newly promoted national team member. Additionally, Bai Yang and Nabi Jiang have also successfully renewed their contracts. Confirmed departing players Mamadou, Zhang Chengdong, and Li Ke may still appear on the CSL stage next year, as changing the environment is their final choice. Newcomer Serginho has confirmed his naturalization and joining, and Wu Shaocong is also very close to joining Beijing Guoan. It is reported that negotiations are underway for a powerful defensive midfielder. With strong troops and horses, Beijing Zhonghe Guoan Club's goal of always striving for first place next season may be achieved!

With the conclusion of the season, Beijing Guoan failed to secure the league championship as they had hoped, finishing only in fourth place. However, this did not hinder their progress towards a higher stage. With this ranking, Guoan qualified for the AFC Champions League, and next season they will face the challenge of competing on three fronts: the Chinese Super League (CSL), the Chinese FA Cup, and the AFC Champions League. To prepare for this, Guoan has been particularly busy during the off-season, dealing with the renewal of veteran players' contracts while actively recruiting new talent to enhance the team's overall strength. During this crucial off-season, several veterans within the Guoan squad, including core players such as Yu Dabao, Zhang Xizhe, and Wang Gang, have seen their contracts expire. The decision regarding whether these veterans stay or leave has become a significant challenge for the team management. These veterans have not only contributed immensely to the team but also carry the deep affection of Guoan fans. However, for the sake of the team's rejuvenation and long-term development, Guoan must make choices between sentiment and reality. After considerable effort, Guoan announced four key signings on December 30th, injecting new vitality into the team's future. Among them, Zhang Xizhe completed a two-year contract extension with Guoan, which will continue until the end of 2026 and includes an extension clause. Wang Gang and Chi Zhongguo renewed their contracts for one year, making significant salary reductions to demonstrate their loyalty and sacrifice to the team. Additionally, young player Bai Yang also chose to renew…

After entering the winter break, Beijing Guoan took a brief rest before starting the first phase of their winter training. During this period, they not only welcomed their new head coach, Setien, but also made moves to strengthen their squad. It is reported that Beijing Guoan has finalized the signing of midfielder ace Serginho, who is about to complete his naturalization procedures. Once Serginho joins, he will undoubtedly significantly enhance Beijing Guoan's midfield control and frontcourt attacking efficiency. And on December 30th, Beijing time, according to the domestic sports blogger "Steamed Koala_GuoAn," Beijing Guoan made another very wise decision by renewing the contract with their 33-year-old meritorious veteran, Zhang Xizhe. Why is it said that renewing Zhang Xizhe's contract is a very wise decision for Guoan? This has to do with Zhang Xizhe's personal technical characteristics. Zhang Xizhe plays as a midfielder and is known for his delicate footwork and precise passing ability, once hailed by Chinese fans as "De Bruyne of the CSL." In the key position of midfield offense, Zhang Xizhe can maintain possession with excellent ball control skills under high-intensity opposition, creating valuable space and time for the team's attack. His passes are as precise as a scalpel, whether it's short passes or long-range transfers, accurately finding the positions of his teammates to open up the offensive situation. In addition, Zhang Xizhe's set-piece skills are equally outstanding, whether it's corner kicks or free kicks, he can use his precise technique to create threats and win scoring opportunities for the team. Beyond his technical advantages, Zhang Xizhe's tactical…
