renewed his contract with the Zhejiang team for four years, and Wang Yudong also wanted to go abroad to see


Special correspondent Xu Yi reports After the U20 national football team missed the semi-finals of the Asian Cup, Wang Yudong returned to Hangzhou from Shenzhen and went to Yunnan with the Zhejiang team on the 25th to prepare for the Chinese Super League with Yunnan Yukun. For the Zhejiang team, this is a special away game, in order to deal with possible altitude sickness, the Zhejiang team went to the away game on Tuesday to prepare; For Wang Yudong, he is expected to usher in his debut in the new season of the Chinese Super League.Just before this game, Zhejiang FC officially announced a four-year contract extension with Wang Yudong, and the current contract is until 2029.



In the Asian Cup in which the national football team U20 participated, Wang Yudong was one of the most dazzling players and showed excellent competition ability. In the U20 Asian Cup, Wang Yudong played in all 4 games of the Chinese team, averaging 3 shots per game, with a shot on target rate of 42%, an average of 7.5 breakthroughs per game, a success rate of 54%, an average of nearly 5 crosses per game, a success rate of 53%, an average of 20 scrambles per game, a success rate of 58%, and an average of 2.4 fouls per game.


His outstanding performance has a lot to do with his training in the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League. Wang Yudong has already shown a higher level of confidence than his peers at the Asian Cup, and he believes that his experience at the club has benefited him a lot: "These [improvements] can be reflected in the Under-20 Asian Cup that I played recently. ”



In November 2006, Wang Yudong was born in Nanxikou Village, Dayan Town, Fenghua District, Ningbo. 14-year-old Wang Yudong came to Zhejiang FC for trial training in 2021 and joined Zhejiang FC in July 2023.


In the following days, everything Wang Yudong experienced made players of the same age very envious. In July 2023, Wang Yudong made his first-team debut as a substitute in the 1/8 finals of the FA Cup between Zhejiang FC and Shanghai Shenhua; In the 24th round of the Chinese Super League in August of that year, Wang Yudong made his Super League debut as a substitute in the 84th minute, not only helping the Zhejiang team defeat Dalian 3-0, but also setting a new record for the youngest league appearance of the Zhejiang team at the age of 16 years and 276 days.On September 20 of the same year, in the first round of Group H of the AFC Champions League group stage and Thailand's Buriram United, Wang Yudong came on as a substitute in the 83rd minute and made his AFC Champions League debut. On November 28 last year, in the 5th round of Group F of the AFC Champions League secondary group stage, Wang Yudong assisted Evra to score, and also scored the first goal of his professional club career, helping Zhejiang defeat Singapore's Lion City Mariners 4-2.


For all this, Wang Yudong also feels very lucky: "When I first came to the club, I started playing in the Chinese Youth Championship and won a championship, and after that game, I jumped to the 05 age group, and after playing the U17 Asian Cup, I went to the first team, and I also played many games in the Chinese Super League, AFC Champions League and FA Cup. ”




For this contract renewal, Wang Yudong said: "I am very happy to complete the contract renewal with the Zhejiang team, and continue to fight for the Zhejiang team in the future, I have been in the club for four or five years, I feel that the club's youth training is very solid, and the club has a good plan for my career." The Hangzhou Municipal Government and the club leaders were very concerned about me, and they also came to cheer me on the U20 Asian Cup, which made me very moved, which also contributed to the renewal of the contract. ”


When the reporter interviewed Wang Yudong, he expressed his desire to stay abroad more than once, because there is still a task for the National Games this year, and Wang Yudong hopes to go to "see abroad" in the future. For his future, Wang Yudong made this imagination: "I still want to play some results in the Chinese Super League and then go out to see, the club also supports me to go out, after I go out, and then come back, I will also return to the Zhejiang team." ”


Fortunately, Wang Yudong met Zhejiang FC, which has a very big picture, and Zhejiang FC has always been very supportive of Wang Yudong's stay: "We are very supportive of players going out, in the current situation, players can improve their level faster when they go out, we will not delay them, and the club is very firm in supporting players to stay abroad." ”


In the face of the club's individual interests, Zhejiang FC believes that the interests of players and the interests of Chinese football should be the most important: "If you don't let players stay abroad because of selfishness, it is the players who are delayed, and at worst, it is the development of Chinese football." Therefore, on the issue of staying abroad, our attitude is very resolute, that is, we will create various conditions for staying abroad, work hard to promote, and let our players have the opportunity to get better training. In this regard, the club and Wang Yudong have reached a high degree of agreement, and therefore, the renewal of the contract is very smooth.
