🇨🇳 How the Chinese Super League's surprise leaders ‘betrayed’ their own manager
Chengdu Rongcheng have done everything to undermine Seo Jung-won!
There’s an unfamiliar name at the top of the Chinese Super League table.
Chengdu Rongcheng were founded just seven years ago. They only won promotion to the top flight in 2022 and have never lifted a single piece of silverware. The club from China’s fourth-most populous city, however, are seven games from becoming champions.
Despite their remarkable rise, Chengdu are in open dispute with their own manager. Supporters believe the club has ‘betrayed’ Seo Jung-won who could be pushed out before the end of the season.
Chengdu’s managerial mastermind might not keep his job long enough to lift the Chinese Super League trophy. How did it come to this?
