In the 2024 professional league qualification notice issued by the Chinese Football Association on January 29, a total of 44 clubs have been admitted, and Yunnan Yukun Football Club is not among them. It is reported that Yunnan Yukun has contacted Dandong Tengyue, a team with difficult management, hoping to make Dandong Tengyue announce its dissolution by giving money, so that Yunnan Yukun can bypass the restrictions of "non-local transfer", replace Dandong Tengyue's qualification in the league, and advance to the first division. However, this situation was reported to the relevant departments by the Dandong Tengyue players, and the two clubs may be fined at the same time. According to the report of the first domestic ** quoted by the live broadcast: In order to successfully participate in this year's Chinese League with supplementary qualifications, the investors of Yunnan Yukun Club did not hesitate to invest 80 million yuan to build the team.
It is reported that Yunnan Yukun originally planned to invite former Chinese Super League Golden Boot winner Li Jinyu to be the head coach of Yunnan Yukun Club. At the same time, Yunnan Yukun also excavated a number of players from the disbanded Dalian Club to strengthen the lineup. In terms of foreign aid, Yunnan Yukun successfully poached Mu Xiekui, the core of the striker, from the Chinese Super League Zhejiang team. Mushekwe helped Zhejiang score 18 goals in the Chinese Super League last season, second only to teammate Leonardo, who scored 19 goals, and was crowned the Super League Silver Boot. After the end of the season, Greentown Group, the former investor of the Zhejiang team, announced the withdrawal of funds, and there were also some problems with the Zhejiang team's funds. Sawdust resolutely abandoned his old club Zhejiang. Deigned to join the new army of Yunnan Yukun.
But no one thought that Yunnan Yukun did not qualify for the Chinese Football Association. This means that Yunnan Yukun is not eligible to participate in the Chinese professional league in the new season. And Mu Xiekui, the silver boot of the Chinese Super League, who abandoned his old club Zhejiang, is currently unemployed. Mushekwe, who originally wanted to get a high-paying contract for a team in the Chinese Second League, could only sigh and shoot himself in the foot. Considering the general environment of Chinese football, it is difficult for a Chinese Super League club to provide Mu Xie Kui with a high-salary contract to allow the Chinese Super League silver boot to return to the Chinese Super League, if he can't find a suitable home, the 36-year-old Mu Xie Kui can only reluctantly consider retiring and ending his career.
In fact, Yunnan Yukun has fallen to such a point, and the end is also deserved. At present, in the period of anti-corruption storm in Chinese football, Yunnan Yukun dared to commit crimes against the wind, trying to buy other business departments and Chinese League A teams in order to obtain the qualification to participate in the Chinese League as a substitute. In the end, he was reported and severely punished by the Chinese Football Association. This penalty decision also demonstrates the cautious attitude of the Chinese Football Association towards the league access qualifications, avoiding repeating the mistakes of the Jinyuan football era and ensuring the healthy and stable development of Chinese football leagues at all levels.
