The Chinese men’s national team is looking for a foreign coach to lead the team in their Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games hunt.

China’s General Administration of Sport’s volleyball department director Li Quanqiang has expressed the hope that both the men’s and women’s national teams, along with the beach teams will qualify for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. Li is making changes for the men’s team as they have missed the qualification for the London 2012 and Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

“The search for a high-level foreign coach is ongoing,” said Li. “We will also expand the domestic volleyball league by adding more qualified teams. With more professional players, the national teams will have more choices.”
