    The Chinese Super League (CSL) is back in action after a break, and this time it's in Zhejiang, where the foreign player who retired injured has returned to play for his team.

    Xin Jing, a Chinese international midfielder, had been playing for Shanghai Shenhua FC since last year, but he recently suffered a serious injury that kept him out of the squad for several months. His absence meant that Xing was unable to lead his teammates on the pitch, which left them struggling against the rival teams from Jiangsu Province.

    However, this didn't deter Xing from continuing to perform at a high level. He made a strong comeback by scoring two goals in a recent match against Jiangsu Suning FC, showcasing his ability to score both goals in a match.

    Despite his impressive performance, Xing's retirement from the CSL season wasn't without controversy. The Chinese Football Association (CFA) had initially banned him from participating in the league due to his previous suspension, but the CFA later lifted the ban and allowed him to return to the national team.

    This move by the CFA was seen as a positive step towards promoting domestic football in China. It shows that the CFA is taking steps to improve the conditions for domestic players and to promote their careers.

    Xin Jing's return to the national team also highlights the importance of the Chinese Super League in promoting domestic football in China. The league provides a platform for talented players to showcase their skills and earn recognition at the highest level of the game.

    In conclusion, Xin Jing's return to the Chinese Super League is a positive development for the league and its players. However, it's important to note that the success of such a change doesn't guarantee that other clubs will follow suit. The CFA needs to continue to work towards promoting domestic football in China and ensuring that all players have equal opportunities to compete at the highest levels of the game.
