Qingdao Yunlong, a CSL relegation candidate, has appointed new coach, Liu Xiangyu. The former Chinese national team coach will take charge of Qingdao's football team in the upcoming season.

Liu Xiangyu is a well-known figure in Chinese football and has coached several clubs in China over the years. He was also the head coach of the Chinese national team during the 2019 AFC Asian Cup. His appointment as Qingdao's new coach comes at a crucial time for the club, who have struggled with form in recent seasons.

Under Liu's leadership, Qingdao will look to rebuild their squad and improve their performance on the pitch. The club has been struggling to maintain a consistent level of play in the CSL this season, and Liu will be tasked with turning things around.

Liu's experience as a coach should provide Qingdao with a solid foundation from which to build. He has worked with some of the best players in China, including former Chinese national team captain Zhang Jikang, and has helped many teams achieve success both domestically and internationally.

With his track record of success as a coach, it is expected that Liu will lead Qingdao to greater heights in the coming seasons. The club hopes that under his guidance, they can turn their fortunes around and compete for promotion back into the top flight of Chinese football.
