Brazil striker Alexandre Pato, who also played for AC Milan, was on Tianjin Tianhai's books

Chinese Super League side Tianjin Tianhai, once home to Brazilian star Alexandre Pato and formerly coached by Fabio Cannavaro, has effectively folded after teetering on the brink for months.
 

At least a dozen clubs in China's top three tiers of professional football have gone under in the last six months, but Tianjin is the first from the CSL.

The team from Tianjin, which was reportedly saddled with heavy debts, is set to be replaced in the top division by Roberto Donadoni's Shenzhen FC.
 

Tianjin on Monday submitted an application to withdraw from the CSL for the forthcoming season.
 

"Tianhai drama ends!"
 

天津天海正式告别中超

11日，天津天海准入中超这部悬疑片，终于即将走向悬念揭晓的一刻——当天下午，天海已经致函中国足协，决定放弃中超资格；傍晚，俱乐部教练组组长李玮锋发表长微博告别。
 

经历了万通收购风波后，天海依然未能获得准入，从2015年夏季收购松江俱乐部至今，这家前身为天津权健的俱乐部走完了不到5年的历程。
 

天海和万通未能达成一致。
 

万通和天海之间的合作未能成功，多方消息指向了双方无法在权责利上达成一致。
 

目前，天海退出中超相关事宜将正式开始走程序，中国足协会在13日-15日在上海召开新赛季联赛会议，届时不出意外，天海退出和深圳递补，也将在会上正式向中超和中甲各代表俱乐部进行通报。
