The Chinese Super League off-season has seen various powerhouses making waves in the transfer market. With Oscar's departure a foregone conclusion and Vargas' stay on the line, the strength of the Harbor team has been overshadowed. At the same time, the price list of foreign aid in the Chinese Super League, Taishan team striker Cressan topped the list, whether he can become the new scoring king of Taishan team, undoubtedly is a big suspense in the new season. However, if Taishan wants to make a difference in the new season, the optimization of the lineup is a key part.
The fallout from gold dollar soccer is still affecting the Chinese Super League, as evidenced by Oscar's 60 million euro transfer fee. In this era, Oscar is regarded as the last superstar foreign aid in the Chinese Super League. With the departure of Fellaini and Oscar, the Chinese Super League is gradually returning to rationality, which makes the choice of foreign aid strategy has become particularly critical. According to the latest German turnover price, Vargas of Harbour once occupied the top of the list, but his imminent departure has made the overall value of foreign aid in the Chinese Super League decline again.
Cressan has become the most expensive foreigner in the current Chinese Super League. In his three seasons with the Taishan team, he has been a notable performer and has become the team's all-time goal-scoring leader. 2024 season, he has renewed his contract with the Taishan team and is one of the captains of the team. Looking ahead to the 2025 season, it will be interesting to see if he can once again set a record price. There is no doubt about Cressan's individual ability, but there is still room for improvement in emotional control and teamwork, which is closely related to the team's tactical system.
For the 2025 season, Taishan's frontcourt lineup of outside backs will include Cressan, Zeca and Wako. The tacit understanding between Kressan and Wako has been a concern for the team, but with the return of Zeca, this issue has been alleviated. However, the level of understanding between the three has not yet peaked, and the Taishan coaching team will make adjustments to the lineup during the winter break. Zeka and Wako have shone in the Korean league, while Cressan is the best foreign scorer in Taishan's history. Their combination will undoubtedly be a force to be reckoned with in the new Chinese Super League season.
Taishan's offensive line is locked down, but on the defensive end, the choice of wide receivers at the back and center back remains crucial. Coach Choi Kang-hee has his own tactical layout, and Taishan team also has its own plan. How to find the balance will be the key to the new season. As the team regroups closer and closer, although the one-month winter training is not long, Taishan hopes to overcome the difficulties in a short period of time and regain the best condition, in order to achieve good results in the new season.
