Spectacular newcomer to the Leipzig Kings! For the coming season of the European League of Football, the Saxons signed Shida Wang (33) – the first Chinese in the continental league with twelve clubs from five nations!
The defensive back and wide receiver is considered a football pioneer in his homeland. He is the captain of the Chinese national team.
Kings head coach Fred Armstrong: “Shida Wang is an outstanding athlete and very versatile, which makes him extremely valuable to us. He loves the challenge and the competition.”
Interesting: The Kings wanted to sign Wang a year ago. At that time, however, it failed due to formalities. Twelve months later, they are in luck!
