Recently, the former Jiangsu team leader Ola Royo may be in charge of the Chinese men's soccer team, however, Ola Royo in the United Arab Emirates in an interview, made it clear that he will abide by the contract with the existing clubs, so he will not be in the Chinese men's soccer team coaching position.
Olaolaju, a player who had a stellar career in the South Korean league, contributed seven goals in 98 games as a member of Suwon Samsung between 1997 and 2000. After retiring, he moved to European soccer and began his coaching career, taking over at Jiangsu Suning in 2018 and leading the team to the Chinese Super League title in 2020, the first time in the history of Jiangsu soccer that the club had won top-flight honors.
