Hupu reported on October 25 that according to the well-known Polish sports reporter Mateusz Borek, Serbian coach Aleksandar Vukovic is expected to coach the Chinese team.

The 46-year-old Vukovic was born in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and has Serbian and Polish nationalities. During his career, he played for Partizan Belgrade, Legia Warsaw, PAOK Thessaloniki and many other teams. After retiring, he stayed at Legia Warsaw and started his coaching career as an assistant coach of the second team. Since then, he has served as the head coach of Legia Warsaw for four times (two of which were firefighting coaches). He led the team to win the Polish Super Championship in the 2019-20 season. He later returned midway through the 2021-22 season and led the mired team to successfully avoid relegation. Later, he served as the coach of Piast, another Polish Super League team. This summer, he ended his three-year cooperation and returned to free agency.

It was previously reported that Lublin Motorcycles, which had a poor record, planned to change its coach and invite Vukovich to come out. However, the team's recovery caused the club to give up this idea.

MateuszBorek said that Vukovic has received an invitation from China and is currently in Beijing to discuss coaching matters. The possibility of coaching a Chinese team is very high. But the reporter did not reveal the name of the specific team.
