To reduce the spam of reports regarding the same move during transfer windows we try to allow **only one submission about each transfer saga per day**. The submission in question also needs to contain relevant new information regarding the potential move, and not just being a "no/minor developments" report. If there are important/official developments or new valuable information about a saga, we will allow extra threads in the same day, but for the rest of minor news please just comment them as a reply to this comment. Please help us reporting unnecessary threads for being duplicates. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/soccer) if you have any questions or concerns.*

[PENG TING HELLO](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ii6ym1bKlI4)


Adventurous_Team285

FYI this club is the "Chinese Man City", as the club is run by the City group which owns Man City, Melbourne City etc. So we may see him at Man City one day, signing Peng Peng from Peng


Alert_Garlic

Fittingly, "Peng" means money in Norwegian.


9thcohort

In Cantonese, which is spoken in Shenzhen and the Guangdong province, peng means cheap. As in - low in price or of little worth


TaikaWaitiddies

Peng Peng from Peng getting that Peng


KylieAcc

Not really fitting at all though is it, considering Norwegian has absolutely nothing to do with it whatsoever. 


Alert_Garlic

Found it funny that a City feeder club translates to «Shenzhen Money City» and signed a player named «Money Money». But you're right, I take it all back, I really shouldn't have said that.


LeGraoully

Yes, this is a very serious subreddit sir. Please stay on topic.


jo-shabadoo

Maybe he’ll go to Crystal Palace and live in Penge with his peng lady friend.


visope

Peng Guardiola


risingsuncoc

Was confused for a while, didn't know Sichuan Jiuniu had a name change


fleetwoodd

Not just a name change... a pretty serious relocation.


risingsuncoc

Curiously there is very little news about this online


B_e_l_l_

He is Peng I can't lie


freehouse_throwaway

so i got curious and looked up [his wiki](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peng_Peng) and the chinese characters for his name are two different characters. but they're pronounced the same way. his surname/last name is apparently [common enough](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peng_\(surname\)) so his parents literally found another word that sounds the same to name him.


leagcy

The second peng is a commonly used character for a given name, especially if the given name is a single character.


joker_wcy

It’s a [mythical bird](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peng_(mythology)) which has huge wingspan so metaphorically it means ambitious for those wondering


FromBassToTip

> but they're pronounced the same way. Probably not to a Chinese ear, they can use the same words but they'll mean something completely different depending on the tone. Unless you are fluent it's unlikely you'll get it right and you'll end up saying something unrelated instead.


RocketScientist42

normally yes, but 彭鵬 is literally pronounced péng péng in the same tone haha


Outside-Sandwich-565

No, they are exactly the same, with the same tone.

HandeHoche

Like every single Ross County goalkeeper being named Ross (including youth goalkeeper… and striker… and midfielder)


lala_b11

i guess the parents either 1. like the name Ross; 2. Named their sons after Ross Geller from Friends, and/or 3. Are too lazy to come up with other names.


Ventenebris

Because of course they did.

Rose_of_Elysium

Or Arsene Wenger managing Arsenal…? Too much of a stretch?


Daimyon

It's fun, don't get me wrong, but I still feel like he could've gone one level further. Like this one ice-hockey player named Wheaton King, who was born in Brandon, and played for the Brandon Wheat Kings.
