Sports Premiere Creation Challenge
The Taishan team are currently training on Jeju Island in South Korea and will travel directly from South Korea to Japan in a week to play Yokohama Mariners in the final round of the AFC Champions League group stage, which will be unbeaten to qualify for the top of the group. Another purpose of the training camp in South Korea is to bring in foreign reinforcements from the K League, because the AFC Champions League knockout round is held in February, and Fellaini and Moises have left the team one after another, the Taishan team must finalize the new signings as soon as possible, so as not to integrate the new signings as soon as possible.
Among the foreign players who have been rumored to be with Taishan include Brazilian striker Zeka of Pohang Ironman and Ulsan Hyundai midfielder Kazajšvić. Among them, Zeka is the first new signing to join the Taishan team, and the striker is not small, and he is a strong contender for the best player in the K League this season, and the Brazilian striker, who is 1.9 meters tall, is very in line with the temperament of the Taishan team and Cui Kangxi's tactical strategy. Kazajšvić is an attacking midfielder who replaces Moisés.
The Pohang Irons coach has already admitted that Zeka is about to leave for Shandong, and the deal seems to be in a state of near-official announcement. At present, all the news about the reinforcements of the Taishan team comes from the Korean media, and the Taishan team itself has no news. According to Korean media, Zeka's contract with Pohang Ironman contains a $2 million liquidated damages clause, and the Taishan team directly dropped $2 million and began to negotiate with Zeka himself.
It is reported that the Taishan team is also very bold and direct in terms of Zeka's personal treatment, and gave Zeka double his salary in Pohang Ironman, and the Brazilian striker readily accepted it. Although the double salary has not reached the salary limit of the Chinese Super League's foreign aids, it is already a difficult figure for Zeka to refuse, and it can be seen that the salary level of the Chinese Super League foreign players is generally higher than that of the K League. However, the transfer fee of 2 million US dollars, as well as an annual salary of less than 3 million euros, and even the annual salary is still a long way from 3 million euros, such a level can be easily given by the Taishan team.
Another Kazajišvich could cost a little less, as he is easier to buy than Zeka in terms of age, ability and length of contract. In recent years, the Chinese Super League team has come out of the Jinyuan football era, and the direction of recruitment has also changed, gradually from the top European league foreign aid, began to aim at the European non-five major leagues and the foreign aid of the Japanese and Korean leagues, it has been proved that although the foreign aid is not worth much, the reputation is not high, but it can still play very beautiful data, just like Cressan, Kante, Davidson and other foreign aid, they have become a model of the current Super League cost-effective foreign aid.
