Shanghai s sleeping giant bullish on chances thanks to busy offseason
Shanghai Shenhua has thrown down the gauntlet to its Chinese Super League rivals, with the longtime underachiever claiming it is ready to launch a title challenge.
Shenhua s confidence is based on the recent addition of six new players, including Wu Xi and Poland international Adrian Mierzejewski.
