Choi resigns as Jiangsu coach after ACL exit
Print Edition
CHOI Yong-soo resigned as head coach of Jiangsu Suning yesterday, one day after the side was eliminated from the AFC Champions League by Chinese Super League rival Shanghai SIPG.
Jiangsu, which finished runner-up to Guangzhou Evergrande in both the league and Chinese FA Cup under South Korean Choi last season, has made a poor start to the 2017 domestic campaign and sits just one point above the relegation zone. Wednesday’s 2-3 home defeat to SIPG was the final straw for Choi, who tendered his resignation following the 3-5 aggregate loss in Nanjing. “Due to personal reasons, Choi Yong-soo has officially submitted his request to terminate his contact,” Jiangsu said in a statement on its official social media account yesterday. “After careful consideration, the club agreed to his request.”
