On October 13, a stone stirred up a thousand waves. Korean media EDAILY reported that Chengdu Rongcheng club owed wages to foreign aid and foreign coaches, like a heavy bomb, instantly detonated the circle of public opinion.
Dating back to 2021, Chengdu Rongcheng FC has been silent on the payment of bonuses to foreign aiders and foreign coaches, including Korean coaches Kim Dae-yi and Kwak Tae-hui, and players Kim Min-woo, Andrigo and Richard, after the success of the overtaking of Chengdu Rongcheng FC. At that time, the club's internal policy promised bonuses, but now the management has a strong attitude on the grounds that "the previous commitment is not paid".
Well-known media person Miao quickly voiced, bluntly said that "in Cao Ying heart in Han" players have begun to act, but in the face of the contract in hand, he bluntly said that he was not willing to easily to the court.
Shortly afterward, Miao posted a seemingly disorganized paragraph on social media. In truth, the passage contained three layers of deep meaning: first, anger at the Korean media, second, the revelation that the names of those owed wages had not yet been released, and third, a question as to why the club did not pay the promised bonuses.
September 27, Miao revealed that an agent had signed two contracts for all foreign aid and clubs, but the person in charge of either "internal digestion" or escape. Now, brokers to claim the arrears of money, but only get a bright contract, the other Y contract is nowhere to be found.
Miao's comments and the Korean media reports are the same, he as a person in the know, the sensitivity and concern about the incident can be seen. However, it is puzzling that half a month has passed, the relevant departments of the "two contracts" issue did not take a public position, so people can not help but question the strength of its supervision.
The Chinese Football Association (CFA) recently released a notice regarding entry into the 2025 season of the Chinese Super League, Chinese League A, and Chinese League B requiring all clubs to submit relevant materials within a specified time frame, including confirmation forms of salary arrears and personnel owed wages. If the reports in the Korean media are true, Chengdu Rongcheng FC's access to the next season is feared to be affected.
Brokers and clubs are afraid to publicize the "two contracts", let alone go to court, which may ultimately result in damage to both parties. The agent will not be able to get the money from the Y contract, and the club may face severe penalties.
It is puzzling why Mr. Miao wants to "recruit" brokers to the court. Perhaps, it is just his mindset to see what's going on?
What appears to be a complex event is in fact simple. If the evidence is conclusive and the truth is revealed, then this will undoubtedly become a "big melon". As bystanders, we can only wait and see what happens, waiting for the FA's next move.
