Since China has few overseas players in its national soccer team, most of them also have the best national team in the East Asian Football Federation (EAFF) E-1 Championship.

The 10th event will then be held in Korea in July, with South Korea, China, Japan and Hong Kong participating in the men's event and South Korea, China, Japan and Taiwan participating in the women's event.
For the men's team, all six games will be held at Mir Stadium in Yongin from July 7 to 15.
The Chinese men's team won two times in Korea in 2005 and Japan in 2010. The E-1 Championship is held when it is not an A-match period, so in the case of Korea and Japan, the best national players playing in Europe cannot participate.
As a result, players playing in Japan and China, centering on their own leagues, will form a national team and participate.
In contrast, in China, the best teams that usually play in A-match games participate in the E-1 Championship as well. The reality is that it is difficult to win the championship despite this. In 2015, he held a tournament in his own country and ambitiously tried to win for the first time in five years, but he was humiliated by losing 0-2 to South Korea's 1.7th-tier personality team in the first round.
In the men's team, the last five tournament winners are divided into Japan, Korea, Korea, Korea and Japan.
In this competition, China is foreshadowing the possibility of participating in the second division even though the best members can come.
This is because the recent reality of Chinese soccer is bleak.
China is ranking the lowest among the six countries in Group C of the third Asian qualifying round for the 2025 North-China World Cup. China lost to Saudi Arabia and Australia in two consecutive games in March, recording two wins and six losses (six points), ranking the lowest behind Bahrain (six points).

China has failed to advance to the World Cup finals through the top two spots in the third qualifying round ahead of the final 9-10 matches in June. China is poised to clinch its first advance to the World Cup finals in 24 years in October after winning all of its away matches against Indonesia on June 5 and home matches against Bahrain on June 10.
The Chinese Football Association intends to form a different men's national team to be put into the E-1 Championship depending on whether they advance to the fourth qualifying round.
If the team advances to the fourth qualifying round, it plans to have the best team participate in the E-1 Championship and use it as a rehearsal for the fourth qualifying round. If the team fails to advance to the fourth qualifying round, it does not have to have a top team in the E-1 Championship. In this case, the Chinese Football Association plans to form a squad comparable to that of the Olympic team and send it to Korea.
Even if the first team comes, it is lagging behind in performance due to the domestic-based entry of South Korea and Japan, but if a young team similar to the Olympic team comes, there is a high possibility that it will play a depressed game in the E-1 Championship.
An Asian soccer official believes that China will not be able to go to the fourth qualifying round because it is lagging behind Saudi Arabia and Indonesia.
