According to the Beijing Youth Daily, Wei Shihao is still likely to be included in the national team training list, but whether he will be called up for the current training session remains uncertain. The national team coaching staff and the Chinese Football Association will communicate about this issue in the next two days.
The report stated that the Football Association will submit a preliminary list of 55 players for the 18th round of the qualifiers to the AFC in the next few days. It is understood that a number of national team newcomers and young players, including Hu Hetao, Wang Haijian, Tao Qianglong, Han Jiaqi and Abdu Rusuli, will be included in the list.
Although Hu Hetao previously suffered an ankle ligament injury that will require three weeks to recover, he is likely to miss the September matches for the 18th round of the qualifiers. However, the national team coaching staff appreciate his ability and attitude and hope that he can catch up for the October matches.
In addition, Wei Shihao, who is currently suspended, may still be included in the list, but whether he will be called up for the training camp in late August remains uncertain. The national team coaching staff and the Chinese Football Association will communicate on this matter in the next two days.
The Beijing Youth Daily also stated that veteran players such as Wu Xi and Zhang Linpeng have gradually faded out of the national team and are unlikely to be included in the list for the 18th round of the qualifiers.
