Foreign Powerhouses

  • Oscar (Brazil) - The creative midfield maestro
  • Marko Arnautović (Austria) - Physical striker with European pedigree
  • Matías Vargas (Argentina) - Dazzling winger signed in 2022

Chinese Internationals

The club boasts several national team regulars:

Wu Lei - Returning hero after Espanyol stint

Yan Junling - China's first-choice goalkeeper

Wang Shenchao - Versatile defensive leader

Tactical Considerations

Coach Ivan Leko favors a 3-4-3 formation that maximizes:

  1. Oscar's playmaking from deep positions
  2. Arnautović's aerial dominance
  3. Wu Lei's explosive counterattacks
