Latest news
Shanghai Shenhua
Shanghai Shenhua continue to grapple with the absence of key players. Defensive midfielder Ibrahim Amadou remains sidelined with a hip injury, having yet to feature this season, which weakens the midfield significantly. In defense, center-backs Zhu Chenjie and Jiang Shenglong are still out of action; Zhu has been recovering since the opening matchday, while Jiang's return has been uncertain since March. On the attacking front, Saulo Mineiro is nearing a comeback and could soon partner with Liu Chengyu up front. The defensive and midfield losses complicate Slutsky's task, but Mineiro's potential return offers a chance to offset these weaknesses by bolstering the attack.
