Recently, the rumors of Shandong Taishan team and La Liga team are like a heavy bomb, which triggered a hot discussion in the soccer world. According to veteran journalist Yin Bo, Taishan is expected to sign a new star, who is expected to set foot in La Liga by the end of the month. As soon as the news came out, all eyes were on the two new stars - goal-scorer Guo Tianyu and the talented Duan Liuyu. After much discussion, Duan Liuyu seems to be the target of the transfer, after all, in order to hit the Super League title, Shandong Taishan is not likely to give up Guo Tianyu easily.
However, the recent Taishan team official rumor, claiming that the commander Hao Wei and Duan Liuyu did not transfer negotiations, triggered netizens questioned. On the one hand, the authenticity of WeChat is still doubtful; on the other hand, even if the two did communicate, who can guarantee the authenticity of the information? Shandong soccer's "rumor" tradition makes people wonder whether Hao Wei and Duan Liuyu also have reservations?
In fact, the rumors of Duan Liuyu joining La Liga seem to be counting down. There is not much time left in the month, and Taishan's squad is strong enough that there is no need to worry about Duan Liuyu's departure. In addition, the Taishan team's supportive attitude towards young players shows respect for the NFF, which is rare in the Chinese Super League.
It's worth noting that Taishan also released Geddes for the stranded Brazilian. According to reports, Gerdes reached a release agreement with Taishan and will join Corinthians. Previously, some fans suggested that Taishan slowed down Gedes' departure, but now he has finally been given a new lease of life, and will be able to move without having to pay liquidated damages.
Letting Geddes go was a desperate move for Taishan. According to his contract, Gerdes has one more year to go, but he has not had a good time with the Taishan team. Although he regained his trust during Hao Wei's tenure, he had problems integrating with his teammates. In contrast, Moises has a place on the Taishan squad despite the competition. Taishan knows that keeping Gedes would be a waste of resources.
Perhaps some people expressed their dismay at Taishan's release of Gedes, believing that the team had suffered a big loss. However, behind Taishan's generous move, there is an unspeakable hardship. Gedes still needs to receive his salary as usual in Brazil, plus other foreign aid salary expenses, Taishan team's budget pressure is huge. What's more, Gedes' psychological gap makes him unwilling to return to the Chinese Super League. Therefore, Taishan team chose to let go, but also to get rid of this "burden".
However, such a decision is understandable in a powerhouse like the Tigers, what would be the situation if it happened to another team?
