Fukuhara's contract with the northeast Chinese team expired last December, and
she has chosen to play for Guangdong in the coming league season.
The player has already started training with her new
team in Guangzhou, and the two sides are expected to sign a contract on March,
15.
Sources say Fukuhara's management company has taken
over the Guangdong team, a move that will allow them to gain full control of the
player's activities.
18-year-old Fukuhara joined Liaoning last April. She
teamed up with world champions Wang Nan and Guo Yue to win the league title in
2005.
