Initially, the Guangzhou team is in dire need of extensive external help and support. Both government support and corporate sponsorship will bring a new force to the team. Especially in terms of coordination with the government, if Guangzhou team can effectively solve some of the debt problems, its development road will be smoother.
Next, Guangzhou team urgently needs to strengthen its internal governance and enhance its operational effectiveness. Under the tight financial situation, the team needs to pay more attention to cost control and improve the utilization rate of resources. At the same time, the key for Guangzhou to get out of the dilemma lies in the deep communication with the players to ignite their fighting spirit and team cohesion.
And the power of fans is crucial for Guangzhou team. They are the most solid supporters of the team. Encouragement and support from the fans will be the key motivation for Guangzhou team to break through the difficulties. Guangzhou team should strengthen the connection with fans through various interactive forms to enhance their sense of belonging and identity, so as to attract more fans' attention and support.
With the adjustment fee fiasco, can Canton turn the corner?
When it comes to the Guangzhou team's predicament, the issue of signing adjustment fee cannot be ignored. Guangzhou Evergrande once paid a huge amount of signing adjustment fee to bring in powerful players, however, nowadays, this part of the fee has become the bottleneck of Guangzhou team's survival.
According to Feng Junyan, a former Guangzhou Evergrande player, some of the teams that should have paid the adjustment fee have not honored their commitments, while the teams that did pay the adjustment fee have only refunded a minuscule portion. This unfair phenomenon needs to be resolved urgently. If the Football Association can deal with it in a fair manner and refund the remaining adjustment fee to the Guangzhou team, it will inject a sizable amount of money into the penniless Guangzhou team and help the team tide over the difficult times.
