Recently, the Chinese Football Association issued a notice on organizing the eighth training session of the U16 national men’s football team and participating in the U17 Asian Cup preliminaries. Suzhou player Chen Zifan was selected for this training session and will participate in the 2024 U17 Asian Cup qualifiers with the team.
Chen Zifan comes from Suzhou’s 2008 men’s football team and is currently studying at Suzhou Wuxian Middle School. He was recommended by Changshu Baoci Primary School to Changshu Dunhui Youth Football Club. Dunhui Club and Changshu Sports School jointly trained and trained him and sent him to Suzhou Sports School. In 2023, he was selected into the training list for November and December of this age group and went to Japan for training as an outstanding player. It is worth mentioning that Chen Zifan has been selected for the training camp of this age group 4 times, including the training camp at Suzhou Taihu Football Center on April 13. , the fifth training camp in Shanghai on June 16, the seventh training camp in Dalian on September 8, and the eighth training camp in Dalian on October 3 this time.

In the first match of the U17 Asian Cup qualifiers, the Chinese team defeated the Bahrain team 2:0; in the second round, the Chinese team defeated the Bhutan team 6:0. The next round of Group C of the U17 Asian Cup qualifiers will be held on October 25. The Chinese team will face the Maldives.
Chen Zifan’s ability to represent the U17 national team in the Asian Cup this time is an outstanding achievement of Changshu Dunhui Youth Football Club and Changshu Sports School’s emphasis on echelon building and rooted youth training since they became strategic partners. It is also another example of the integration of football, sports and education in Suzhou. A success story. In addition to Chen Zifan, there are also equally outstanding players such as Zhang Junjie and Wan Yuhao. I believe that more young football players from Changshu will emerge and contribute their strength to Changshu, Suzhou and Chinese football.
