On the evening of February 20, Beijing time, Jianye officially announced that their new name is Henan Songshan Longmen, which officially ended a series of storms surrounding the team's name change. In the history of China's professional league for more than twenty years, they are one of the most stable teams in terms of investment, and in the past the team has also made a number of player transactions with the Guangzhou team, of which the most successful representative is definitely Wang Shangyuan.
Earlier, the team's parent company Jianye Group selected the 2020 "Dedicated Pioneer" award, and the winner was Wang Shangyuan, which is another honor for Wang after becoming the team's vice-captain last season. This is another honor for Wang after he became the vice-captain of the team last season. In addition, he successfully renewed his contract with the team for five years in December last year, and he is going to leave his entire peak career to Jianye.
I'm sure everyone is familiar with Wang Shangyuan's story with Guangzhou, where he officially joined in 2015 after returning from his stay in Belgium. The then manager Scolari was very optimistic about him, and at the age of 21 he was often given a starting position under the no U23 policy. Due to the fierce competition in Guangzhou's forward position, Wang Shangyuan could only keep retreating from the front waist position, and was eventually settled in the right wingback position. In those years, Zhang Linpeng was frequently injured, Wang Shangyuan got a lot of starting opportunities, but in fact, his performance is difficult to satisfy, but also once by the Tianti home fans booed, and even made a mistake in the game, teammate Zeng Cheng angry pushed angry reprimand.
In 2018, the first reinforcement after the second entry into the palace, is to bring Deng Hanwen to strengthen the strength of the right side of the guard, Wang Shangyuan in the hands of Kashuai, and then turned back to the midfielder. But the back position he has never been able to adapt, coupled with the big brother Zheng Zhi and Huang Bowen is still the team's mainstay, his playing time is even less and less. Finally in the summer window of 2018, he chose to leave the team to return home to join Jianye.
After returning to Henan, Wang Shangyuan seemed to be transformed, and he switched to playing a new position as the team's center back. It was this change that brought him back to life, and he soon became the centerpiece of the defense, helping Jianye relegate early in consecutive seasons, and he himself was once summoned by Li Tie to enter the national football list. Especially in the relegation elimination match against Wuhan last season, his consecutive goals surprised many fans.
When he was lost in the Guangzhou team, he said he wanted to hit the face of the jets, and now he has really done it, and I remember that when the Jianye team came to the Tianti as a guest in 2019, Wang Shangyuan also made a special effort to thank the Guangzhou fans on the social platform after the game, and that man with feelings and righteousness deserves our respect even more.
