Lee returnsto coach Guangzhou

BEIJING - The Guangzhou soccer team has made a solid step towards returning to the Chinese Super League (CSL) through the signing of well-known South Korean coach, Lee Jang-Soo.

Within a week of the side being demoted to the second division last month due to match manipulation, Evergrande Real Estate Group took over the club and vowed to invest 100 million yuan ($14.6 million) to revive the team.

The second division club then brought in several players for the new season, including national team striker Gao Lin.
