In the 17th round of the Chinese Super League, Shandong Taishan team lost 0-2 to Beijing Guoan, and completely withdrew from the league championship competition after three rounds of winlessness. It is worth mentioning that Fernando, an international player of the Taishan team, failed to enter the squad for the game, and after the game, there was also news that he was hidden from the snow due to his poor contract renewal.
After the national team break, Fernando only played for Taishan in the match against Meizhou Hakka. In that game, he came off the bench for 45 minutes and his performance was average. In the subsequent FA Cup away, the Chinese Super League and Yatai's away, he did not go with the team, but stayed at the club base for training.
On the eve of the battle of Jinglu, Wang Dalei, Cressan and Fernando entered Beijing overnight, and many fans thought that these three would all play in the game. However, when the squad for the match came out, fans found out that Fernando's name was not available. And at the post-match press conference, a reporter asked about Fernando's situation. Choi Kang-hee's answer was ambiguous, he said: "The team has a team situation. ”
Cui Kangxi's words also aroused the conjecture of fans. Is Fernando injured? Just today, Fernando himself posted a selfie in the gym on social media, and captioned "Check in for a 6-kilometer jog, a blessed week". Obviously, Fernando has no new injuries and is fit.
What the hell happened to Fernando? Soon, some fans found out: Fernando has only half a year left on his contract with the Tarzan team. On the day of the national team match, the Taishan team officially announced the renewal of the contract with Wang Dalei, and the contract expiration time of the two is the same. However, Fernando did not get a contract extension for the Tarzans. It's unclear whether the Tarzan team doesn't want to keep Fernando, or if Fernando has already found a home with a big mouth?
Judging by Fernando's performance on the pitch, there is no reason why the Tarzan team should not be retained. In the national team, Fernando is deeply trusted by coach Ivan, and he is now the heart of the national team's front court. At the club, Fernando has also scored 2 goals and 6 assists this season, and his form has improved greatly.
Last season, when Fernando was without a ball to play, the Tarzan team ended up taking him in. After more than a year of game adjustments, Fernando has gradually recovered his form. Obviously, Fernando wanted a salary increase, but the financial situation of the Tarzan team did not allow it. In this case, Fernando's pre-match turmoil was hidden by Choi Kang-hee, which seems to have become the most reasonable statement.
