Heavy news has come from powerhouse Shenzhen - head coach Li Zhangsu has stepped down, with Zhang Xiurui taking temporary charge, and Chen Tao has been tasked with being the team's chief assistant.
The official social media of Shenzhen team released a statement: Based on the friendly negotiation between both parties, Shenzhen Football Club and Li Zhangsu have reached an agreement that Mr. Li Zhangsu will no longer continue to be the head coach of Shenzhen team. At the same time, the club made the following adjustments to the coaching team: Zhang Xiurui took over as the acting head coach, Chen Tao became the first assistant coach, Shen Xiangfu was promoted to the position of technical director, and Guan Zhen became the goalkeeper coach.
Looking back to February 2022, Lee Jang-soo officially took over the coaching reins of Shenzhen, and with his meticulous attitude and dedication, he brought new tactical concepts and tactical play to the team, tapped and nurtured a lot of young talents, and offered fans a number of exciting matches even as the team's lineup changed. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to Mr. Lee Jang-soo and his team and wish them all the best in their future work life! Looking forward to Coach Zhang Hao Rui to lead the team out of the difficult situation and achieve a successful season!
