Beijing Guoan, one of the most successful football clubs in China, has officially announced that it will be hiring a new head coach for its upcoming season. The club's board of directors have chosen former Premier League coach, Zhang Jie, to take over as the team's manager.
Zhang Jie is no stranger to the Chinese football scene having previously managed Shanghai SIPG and Guangzhou Evergrande before joining Beijing Guoan. His experience on the pitch combined with his understanding of Chinese football make him a strong candidate for the job.
The announcement comes after a difficult period for Beijing Guoan which saw them finish bottom of the Chinese Super League last season. However, the club has shown signs of improvement under new owner, Wang Jianlin, and Zhang Jie's appointment could help to turn things around.
Zhang Jie is expected to work closely with the rest of the coaching staff at Beijing Guoan and bring his expertise to the team. He will also need to work with the players who are currently under contract with the club to ensure they all feel comfortable playing under his leadership.
In conclusion, the hiring of Zhang Jie as the new head coach of Beijing Guoan is a positive move for the club and their fans. With his previous success in the Premier League and his ability to adapt to different styles of play, he is sure to lead the team towards success this season.
