Recently, the enthusiasm of domestic enterprises to join the soccer field is gradually fading, and it is generally believed that soccer investment is not a profitable way. At the same time, overseas investment institutions have been keen to capture the potential of soccer investment, and began to secretly lay the groundwork several years ago. Now, they are enjoying the lucrative returns from their investments, and the advantages are obvious. On the one hand, overseas investment institutions are well-funded and financially strong; on the other hand, they are able to mobilize the resources of the world's top players to provide strong support for team construction. In comparison, the Chinese Super League teams are not able to compete with them in this aspect.
Huang Qiang pointed out that in the past, the public was generally skeptical of overseas investment in teams. One example is the Chengdu Sheffield United of Sichuan, which is also foreign-invested. However, problems arose soon afterward, and since then there has been a boycott of overseas investment. In the past few years, there has been little mention of overseas investment in the era of gold-dollar soccer, but today, many of the financial backers of Chinese Super League teams are reluctant to reinvest. In the face of this situation, the FA should perhaps consider opening up a new development model. It is worth noting that Sichuan Jiuniu, with the support of the city, managed to win the Central League title, surpassing it a few rounds ahead of schedule.
