? [Heavy news in soccer]? Beijing time on December 22, China's soccer world broke out a happy news, Fan Zhiyi is expected to become the new Chinese Super League head! He will be fully responsible for the operation of the Chinese Super League and the Chinese A League, shouldering the mission of delivering talents for the national soccer team and helping the great revival of men's soccer.
In January 2025, when the Chinese Super League is officially established, Fan Zhiyi is likely to take charge of the league. He will work to standardize the league's operations, punish referee corruption, and cultivate soccer talent in a bid to put the Chinese soccer league on the right track.
During Gou Zhongwen's tenure as director, figures like Fan Zhiyi were often overlooked and excluded from many soccer activities. He rarely appears in the public eye, except for the occasional variety show, and spends more time with his family, which is a pity for his soccer career.
The downfall of Gou Zhongwen, and the ensuing review of his rehired Li Tie and others, has ushered in a clear sky in Chinese soccer. Fan Zhiyi is expected to be rehired, marking the beginning of a clean slate for Chinese soccer. If this trend is maintained, Chinese soccer is expected to shake off the shadow of Vietnam and Myanmar and usher in a new glory.
So, can Fan Zhiyi really save Chinese soccer? How do you feel about this?
