Lack of dual nationality Ryan Zimmerman Nationals Jersey , FIFA rules hinder realization of idea: experts
Chinese government agencies have discussed the possibility of naturalization of foreign football players in China, but experts said it was ""impractical"" and could dampen the country's football development.
""We have discussed naturalization of foreign football players with public security departments,"" Zhang Jian, vice-chairman of the Chinese Football Association (CFA), told the China Sports Forum on Saturday, the China Youth Daily reported.
Zhang did not reveal any details about the result of the discussion, only saying that the naturalization of foreign players would come down to multiple issues related to law and population management and was ""a sensitive topic.""
The naturalization of foreign players, which involves China's law and regulations, is still being studied and discussed by relevant government departments, said CFA President Cai Zhenhua, adding that it couldn't be accomplished immediately, the Tianjin Daily reported in December 2015.
Chinese football players' performance has constantly disappointed fans and observers, who believe that introducing foreign players will improve the competitiveness of the Chinese national football team.
Although Chinese football clubs are welcoming outstanding foreign football players, it will be difficult for these players to represent the national team due to stringent rules of the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) and China's strict naturalization policies, experts said.
The FIFA rules stipulate that foreign players need to assume nationality of a country before they can represent it in international competitions.
""Even Chinese green cards are quite hard to obtain for foreigners, let alone citizenship,"" Ma Dexing, deputy editor of Changsha-based Titan Sports, told the Global Times.
China's green card policy was introduced in 2004, but only 4,752 people have received permanent resident status as of 2012, the Xinhua News Agency reported in 2014.
According to the regulations on examination and approval of permanent residence of aliens in China, only outstanding football players can get a chance to become a Chinese citizen.
Another problem is that the country does not recognize dual nationality. ""Outstanding players may find it hard to give up their original nationality just for representing the Chinese team,"" Liu Guofu, an expert on immigration law from the Beijing Institute of Technology, told the Global Times.
And even if they are willing to give up their original nationality, FIFA's stringent rules will make the naturalization impractical, Ma said.
Based on the FIFA rules, a foreign player needs to live continuously for at least five years after reaching the age of 18 within China to be able to represent the country in international competitions.
Meanwhile, introducing foreign players may dampen China's football development, as it will not solve fundamental problems, such as relatively slack management of the industry, Ma said.
" d to get to that laptop."
Comey told Sen. Ben Sasse, a Republican from Nebraska, that Mills was acting as a member of Clinton's legal team in the case. He said the FBI decided it would take too long to try to force Mills to turn over the laptop without an immunity deal.
The FBI investigated Clinton's use of a private mail server for official communications while secretary of state, but no charges were filed.

House Speaker Paul Ryan is praising Donald Trump's debate performance, saying he showed he can "go toe-to-toe with Hillary Clinton."
Ryan said Trump "gave a unique Donald Trump response to the status quo... I think he passed a number of thresholds."
The Wisconsin Republican refused to comment on Trump's attacks Tuesday morning on a Miss Universe contestant over her weight gain. He said he hadn't seen Trump's remarks.
Despite Ryan's positive spin, some other House Republicans voiced some disappointment over Trump's performance. Some said there were missed opportunities to attack Clinton over her family foundation and other issues that didn't come up in the debate.
Congressman Bill Flores of Texas says Trump "wasn't quite as consistent as I would've liked him to have been."

A senior House Democrat says Donald Trump "came unhinged" during Monday's debate and demonstrated that he is not qualified to be president.
Rep. Xavier Becerra of California, the chairman of the Democratic Caucus, told reporters Tuesday that Trump showed disrespect to Clinton and American voters by constantly "badgering and interrupting" the Democratic presidential nominee.
Becerra said: "Donald Trump essentially showed who he is." He said: "He gave us a sense of his character and his temperament."
Becerra says Trump "came unhinged" at several points, though the congressman didn't cite specific examples.
He said "that's the last thing you want for a president who will have his or her finger over the nuclear button."

Hillary Clinton says she's feeling good after Monday night's debate and is looking forward to the next two match-ups with Donald Trump.
The Democratic presidential candidate said the debate showed "clear differences" between the candidates' temperaments and qualifications for the presidency.
Clinton spoke to reporters Tuesday on her campaign plane. She's holding a rally and a fundraiser in Raleigh, North Carolina, later in the day.
She said her Republican rival cast the country in "dire and dark terms" and "That's not who America is."
She couldn't resist a final dig on Trump as she returned to her seat at the front of the cabin. Trump had complained that he was given a "terrible" microphone during the debate.
Clinton said: "Anybody who complains about the .
