Cantabrian coach Quique Setién has secured his next professional challenge after his time at Villarreal. According to Chinese sports media, the experienced Spanish coach has reached an agreement to take charge of Beijing Guoan, one of the prominent clubs in the Chinese Super League (CSL). The contract, which may be finalized in the coming days, marks a new stage for the capital team, which finished in fourth place in the last season.

Setién, known for his possession-based style of play, arrives with the mission to revitalize the team. Beijing Guoan aims to implement a more technical and offensive football, as well as focus their strategy on developing young local talents, aligning with the strengths of the Spanish coach.

Faced tough competitors for his position

Although the club had considered other names like Vladimír Weiss, Ronald Koeman, and Giovanni van Bronckhorst, it was Setién who best fit the profile they were seeking: an internationally experienced coach capable of working with squads without big media stars.

The Spanish coach becomes the third from his country to lead Beijing Guoan, following the paths of Gregorio Manzano and José González. Setién's appointment signifies a clear commitment to a change in style and ambition for a team aiming to return to the top of Chinese football since their last title in 2009. Fans eagerly await his debut on the sidelines.
