SHANGHAI: Chinese Super League (CSL) side Chongqing Lifan on Monday unveiled former Portugal coach Paulo Bento as their new manager, nine months after he was sacked by Greek side Olympiakos. A tough-tackling defensive midfielder during his playing career, Bento replaces South Korea’s Chang Woe-Ryong at Chongqing, which finished 10th in the 16-team CSL in the season that just ended. The 48-year-old Bento becomes the latest in a long list of foreign coaches in the CSL, joining the likes of the Italian Fabio Cannavaro at champions Guangzhou Evergrande and the German Roger Schmidt at Beijing Guoan.
