Not long ago, the Chinese Football Association announced the list of Asian Cup training camps, and several non-blood naturalized players such as Ackerson, Fernando, Alan and Luo Guofu were not selected, which means that non-blood naturalized international players will completely withdraw from the national football team. In terms of form, Allan has not played a lot of minutes since returning to Brazil and has been terminated from his contract with the club. Fernando, who returned to the Chinese Super League to join Taishan, did not use his performance to conquer Cui Kangxi and get the main position in Taishan. Ackerson maintained a good goal efficiency in Rongcheng, but he couldn't find a goal when he arrived at the national football team, which feels like this is the main reason why he has been selected for the World Cup qualifiers and the Asian Cup squad in a row.
The above-mentioned naturalized internationals are in the best form. He currently plays for América Club Mineiro in Brazil. Last season, Lo performed quite well for América Mineiro, scoring consecutive goals, but missed half a season of the Brazilian league due to a serious injury. According to Brazil**, in September this year, a Chinese Super League team invited Luo Guofu to return to the Chinese Super League after his contract with Mineiro America expired. And many Chinese fans are also looking forward to Luo Guofu being able to find his form in the Chinese Super League and put on the national football jersey again to improve the offensive efficiency of the national football team like Ackerson. Regrettably, Lo has rejected an offer from a Chinese Super League team, and he still wants to renew his contract with his former club América Mineiro, or consider joining other Brazilian league teams.
Personally, I think that Luo Guofu's refusal of the invitation of the Chinese Super League team can only show that in the eyes of naturalized players, the overall level and competitiveness of the Chinese Super League are quite limited. They prefer to stay in the high-level league to maintain their form, not to mention that naturalized internationals like Luo Guofu have already made a lot of money in the Golden Yuan era of the Chinese Super League, and they no longer need to play for the national football team for money. In fact, naturalized players and the national football team are actually just an employment relationship, naturalized players lack a sense of identity with Chinese culture and the level of Chinese players, if it is not driven by huge economic interests, it is estimated that they will not play for the national football team in their lives. Luo Guofu's rejection of the invitation of the Chinese Super League team means that the national football coach Jankovic will lose the Brazilian naturalized striker in the Asian Cup. The scoring responsibility of the national football team still has to fall on domestic players such as Wu Lei and Wei Shihao.
And Luo Guofu and other naturalized international players refused the invitation of the Chinese Super League team, which also made the face of the Chinese Football Association full of embarrassment. Originally, the Football Association hoped that the return of these naturalized international players would enhance the overall competitiveness of the national football team in the short term and achieve satisfactory results in the Asian Cup and World Cup qualifiers. But the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny. The Chinese Football Association must now recognize a reality, that is, the naturalization plan of the national football team has ended in failure. If you want to improve the level of Chinese football, you must lay down your salary and try your courage to lay a solid foundation for youth training and cultivate excellent football talents, which is the only way out for Chinese football.
