In the 17 rounds of intense competition that just ended, Xinjiang's main goalkeeping position has undergone a radical change. Fan Ziming, who was originally from Zhejiang Province, has recently been joined by Ripatti. Meanwhile, Gu Junjie, who has played for the team for a long time, has seen his appearances drop to just three games this season after moving to Zibo Cuju in the Central League for two consecutive seasons. With the completion of this rotation, the two goalkeepers will embark on a brand new green battlefield. Fan Ziming's departure doesn't stop there, as he'll once again go on loan to Jinan Xingzhou, a team in the second division. Jinan Xingzhou, as the champion of the 2021 Chinese Championship League, had an impressive performance in the first phase of the season, scoring 20 goals and conceding 7 with 8 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, and scoring a whopping 25 points, which puts them at the top of the Dalian Division and the leader of the overall standings. Next, Jinan Xingzhou will try their best to reach the first group and participate in the second stage of the China B League.
In view of the fierce competition on the road to the top, the test for goalkeepers is getting more and more severe, Jinan Xingzhou decided to strengthen the goalkeeper lineup. On the eve of Fan Ziming's joining the team, another experienced goalkeeper, Deng Xiaofei, has been transferred from Chongqing Liangjiang Athletic, while the team also has a powerhouse goalkeeper, Mu Qianyu, in its lineup.
