What is the new name of Guangzhou Evergrande after the renaming?
2 Answers
At the end of last year, Guangzhou Evergrande team has applied to the Football Association to directly change its name to "Guangzhou Team". In international competitions, the team will also use the name "GuangZhou-FC". Currently, both parties have only completed the change of the enterprise name, and the Football Association still needs to proceed with the next step of public announcement and approval, followed by registration to complete the entire process. Here is some additional information about Guangzhou Evergrande team: 1. Guangzhou Evergrande Taobao Football Club Co., Ltd. was established in 2006. 2. Before Evergrande Group "took over" the team in 2010, Guangzhou Evergrande had always used the name Guangzhou Football Club. After Evergrande Group bought out all the shares, the team was renamed Guangzhou Evergrande Football Club. 3. Over the past 11 years, with the support of Evergrande Group, Guangzhou Evergrande Football Club has won major honors such as the China League One championship, 8 Chinese Super League championships, and 2 AFC Champions League titles, making it the most successful domestic football club in the past decade.
As a loyal fan of Evergrande, I remember when Guangzhou Evergrande first emerged and took the football world by storm, winning so many championships like the AFC Champions League and the Chinese Super League! After the name change to Guangzhou FC, it fully complied with the CFA's neutral name policy, removing the corporate name, and now rightfully represents the local Guangzhou. The fan base was a bit confused at first—used to shouting 'Evergrande,' but with practice, switching to 'Guangzhou FC' became natural, and the support hasn't diminished at all! The team has a glorious history, but after the renaming, there have been significant roster adjustments. I hope Guangzhou FC can maintain its status as a strong team. The future league competition will be fierce, but don’t get too excited while watching the games and speed—safety first! The club is still adapting to its new identity, and fans should go to the stadium more often to cheer them on.
