Chinese Super League 2019 Preview: New Signing, Transfer IN - Out, Club-by-Club Guide.
The new Chinese Super League season 2019 is approaching now, the currently CSL 2019 season is the 16th edition of Chinese Super League will be kick off 1st march and end on 30 November.
who will crown the new champions in CSL 2019, or will be the top scorer in 2019 Chinese Super League, or China gain the top world class footballers, these are the basic question popping in the mind as new CSL season 2019 has begun.
Shanghai SIPG has clinched the Chinese league title for the first time, ending Guangzhou Evergrande's seven-year dominance in Chinese Super League 2018.
Besides chasing the league title, Guoan find themselves in a unique position in 2019, having signed China's first naturalized footballers, Hou Yongyong and Li Ke. Chinese fans will doubtless be hoping that the duo can help their new nation qualify for the 2022 World Cup. Hou made his Guoan debut in the CFA Super Cup and said he felt good, though coach Schmidt cautioned that the naturalized players would need time to adjust to their new environment.
One of the star arrivals in the CSL in 2019 is Belgian midfielder Marouane Fellaini. The 31-year-old former Manchester United player could give Shandong Luneng the extra impetus to go for the CSL title this season after last season's third-placed finish.
