Hebei China Fortune have appointed former Manchester City boss, Manuel Pellegrini, as the club’s new manager.
After it was announced that he would leave the Etihad Stadium, Pellegrini was linked with a number of clubs in Europe but it has been revealed that he has become the latest high-profile name to make the switch to the Chinese Super League.
Hebei had been coached by former Everton midfielder, Li Tie, but he has been replaced with the team fifth in the league with seven games left.
Pellegrini joins the likes of Sven-Goran Eriksson and Luis Felipe Scolari in taking a job in the CSL.
