Guangdong officially announced today that veteran Zhou Peng has returned to the team. According to follow-up information from media figure Wang Jian Zhao Tancha, Guangdong and Zhou Peng signed a one-year C-level contract.

Contract Details and Return Process

Wang Jian Zhao Tancha wrote on his personal Weibo account: "Veteran Zhou Peng has returned to Guangdong Hongyuan. According to my understanding, the two sides signed a one-year C-level contract." He also said Guangdong had made additions to its management, coaching staff and player roster today. Signing a veteran like Zhou Peng can help stabilize the team and was considered necessary. The club also attached great importance to the announcement and specifically chose 11:11 as the release time.

20 Seasons of Experience, 16 Spent in Guangdong

Zhou Peng has 20 seasons of CBA league experience, with 16 of those seasons spent with Guangdong. The reunion between the two sides will become another memorable chapter. It is reported that Zhou returned on a relatively lower-salary contract. He still has a strong desire to become a defensive leader for the team, so he will wear his former No. 11 jersey.

According to reports, Zhou Peng is about to turn 37 years old, but he has maintained very good physical condition. He has continued to make frequent appearances in recent seasons, and in the previous season, his average scoring remained in double figures.

In addition, media figure Congxin Hao reported that Guangdong signed Zhou Peng back by claiming him as a free agent.
