Veteran players preparing to play for Guangzhou FC, says head coach

BEIJING, Oct. 4 (Xinhua) -- Guangzhou FC head coach Zheng Zhi says the club's veteran players, including himself, are shaking off the rust to prepare to play for the struggling Chinese Super League club.

The Guangzhou club saw an exodus of established players, including striker Ai Kesen, Ricardo Goulart and Zhang Linpeng, before the start of this season, leaving a depleted team to face the new CSL campaign.
