Shenhao who plays around the world

Chapter 250 Be more courageous

Chelsea lost to Manchester United in the competition for money.

How could Freund, the former sporting director of Red Bull Salzburg, who single-handedly unearthed Haaland and other demon stars, hang himself from a tree?

No, he has set his sights on Guangzhou City goalkeeper Aisen again.

The impression this goalkeeper gave him was very similar to Ederson, the retired old goalkeeper from Manchester City next door.

Guangzhou City's price tag for Eisen is not that outrageous. As long as 60 million euros, they can take it home.

Compared with the money, it is quite cost-effective.

It's only 60 million euros, which is half the price of the person next door.

With reinforcements at the goalkeeper position next door, there is no reason for them to fall behind.

In addition to the goalkeeper, Freund is also interested in Guangzhou City's defensive midfielder Rody, center back Rudy, and full-back Chen Kan.

The Football Association will not allow it to introduce so many Chinese players in one go.

The most Freund can do is pick one more among the three, which is already a concession from the Football Association to their BIG6.

Defensive midfielder Roddy is modeled after Spanish main midfielder Rodri. He is very comprehensive and can attack and defend well.

Guangzhou City has put a price tag on it of 70 million euros. After all, it is only 20 years old, so it should not be too expensive.

Central defender Rudy is modeled after Portugal's defense core Ruben Dias. The price tag in Guangzhou is 70 million euros. He is the same 20-year-old as Rody, so you won't lose money if you buy him.

Full-back Chen Kan, whose template is Cancelo, is relatively the cheapest and can be taken away for only 50 million euros.

But since the choices are limited, of course you have to pick the ones with the most potential and take them away.

Freund offered Rudy 70 million euros, and they are confident that they will get a generous return on Rudy.

Huang Shenghua received the offer email from Chelsea and immediately agreed.

When Chelsea places an order for the first time, they always have to give a friendly price so that they can continue to cooperate in the future.

Eisen and Rudy will become Chelsea's new signings when the summer window opens next year.

Guangzhou City has booked a profit of nearly 250 million euros from selling Aisen, Rudy and Wei Jie.

The cost of training these three young players can be said to be minimal.

There is no team in the entire Chinese Super League that doesn't envy them.

Just sell it to a few people and earn a terrifying profit that they are envious of.

From the fans' perspective, most of them are very supportive.

After all, the clubs buying people are all European giants.

Manchester United, Chelsea, which one is not a wealthy team with many fans around the world.

Even if he is sold, it will not affect Guangzhou City's dominance in the Chinese Super League at all.

This season, Guangzhou City is stronger than last season and has not lost yet.

Thinking about it, it is simply a joke to let a bunch of second- and third-rate league clubs win against the nearly complete Manchester City.

It's a pity that this Manchester City team was split and sold before Haaland could be acquired.

Even Chen Ao has no objection to the club's behavior of selling players.

With the ability of his boss, it won't be too difficult to give him another group of players who are as strong as the current group of disciples.

To be honest, the current group of players is too strong, which makes Chen Ao very frustrated.

Even if there is a dog on the coaching bench, Manchester City can lead this team to win the championship easily.

Zhuo Feifan, who coaches in the Chinese League One, feels the same way as Chen Ao.

With Cathay Capital's lineup, which has been able to securely avoid relegation in the Premier League, it's not just a random killing in the Chinese League One, with an average goal difference of more than three in every game.

In the FA Cup, they passed all the way.

No matter whether the opponent is the Chinese Championship or the Chinese Super League team, they all surrender under their iron heel.

Not surprisingly, they will meet Chen Ao's Guangzhou City team in the final.

Even if they lose, it doesn't matter. Guangzhou City, which has already booked the Chinese Super League championship, has directly obtained a quota for the AFC Champions League. This quota will be deferred to the other team in the final.

As long as they make it to the finals, they can join hands with Guangzhou City to participate in the AFC Champions League next season.

A team that has climbed from the fourth tier of the league to the second tier and represents the country in the AFC Champions League has aroused the admiration of many fans who are paying attention to Cathay Pacific in the capital.

This immersive experience of growing with the team really attracts a group of fans.

There is even a fan system on the Internet that has made a video of the development of Cathay Pacific in the past few years, which has aroused many fans' interest in this dark polo team.

In the quarter-finals, Beijing Cathay Pacific 2-0 Dalian in an away game and advanced to the semi-finals.

In the semi-finals, 3-0 at home, sent Shandong Taishan back to his hometown and reached the final.

Both games were played cleanly.

Zhao Fei on the wing quickly turned Dalian and Shandong Taishan into a sieve on the wing, and there was no way they could stop him.

Zhao Fei, who has the template of Rafinha, is the real core of this Beijing Cathay team.

Leeds United's scouting department has been tracking Zhao Fei for a long time, and the quotations are constantly increasing.

Now it has reached 35 million euros, which is close to the psychological price of Cathay Pacific in the capital.

Zhao Fei is included in the new batch of national team rosters, but he is only as a substitute and has played against other Asian teams on international match days.

As the face of Cathay Pacific in the capital, Zhao Fei was selected into the national football squad, while Guoan next door still had no one selected.

Mickey, who has high hopes from Guoan fans, faces fierce competition.

Today's national football forward players, whose ability value is lower than 80, have no chance of being selected for the squad.

Mickey was not selected for the national football squad, but he performed well in the Chinese Super League. After transferring in the winter window, he has scored 8 goals, proving his worth.

The Football Association Cup final, taking into account the issue of venue neutrality, was finally scheduled to be played at the Workers' Stadium.

It was extremely depressing to see rivals from the same city using their own stadium to compete for the championship trophy and unable to do anything about it.

Although the two teams are not mortal enemies, in the same city, it is inevitable that they will dislike each other.

In the eyes of many Guoan fans, they are the most established and popular team in Beijing.

But next door, Cathay Pacific, which has the Bird's Nest as its home ground, has established a foothold in the lower-level leagues in the past two years.

Tickets are almost half-sold and half-given, which is a big deal for fans in the capital.

The match between the two teams in the Football Association Cup really made many Guoan fans lose face and were completely beaten by their opponents.

This made the face-conscious Beijing men unbearable, and many people simply switched to support Jingcheng Cathay out of anger.

Since supporting Cathay Pacific, many fans have felt the joy of being crushed.

In the entire Chinese Premier League, Cathay Pacific is the only one in the league.

Dominated all the way in the league, and was no slouch in the cup either.

Now, we have reached the FA Cup final.

Beijing Cathay, which won the championship in the Chinese League One ahead of schedule, has no pressure on the whole team. Even if they lose, they can still play in the AFC Champions League. It will naturally be more satisfying if they win.

Opposite Guangzhou City, there is a little less pressure, because the players want to become the triple crown champion.

This season's Chinese Super League championship has been won by Guangzhou City, successfully defending the Chinese Super League title.

The FA Cup championship is not to be missed.

Even in Chen Ao's heart, he values ​​the FA Cup championship more.

The opponent in the AFC Champions League final is not as good as Cathay Pacific in terms of strength.

…

From the beginning of the game, Zhao Fei was targeted.

Walker, the best right back in the Chinese Super League this season, completely admires Zhao Fei.

In the Chinese League One, Zhao Fei is used to using 2-3 people to defend the opponent.

This is the first time I have encountered this kind of one-on-one situation.

His characteristics are fast speed, sharp breakthroughs, and good shooting skills.

But his speed was completely useless in front of Walker.

Seeing Zhao Fei being watched to death, Zhuo Feifan knew that the game was over.

Within the entire team, the only explosive point was restricted.

The entire opponent's lineup is terrifyingly strong.

One is the Premier League champion and the other is a Premier League relegation team. Their strength is not at the same level at all.

It's not that easy to be upset.

Chen Ao had studied Zhao Fei deeply and specifically asked Walker to watch Zhao Fei die one on one.

Losing his speed advantage, Zhao Fei relied solely on his skills and would be constantly interfered with by Walker, who was good at close combat.

Zhuo Feifan shook his head helplessly, it was just a lineup gap, there was nothing to say.

The entire game was just as Zhuo Feifan expected.

In the first and second half, Guangzhou City scored goals from Wei Jie and Luo Di, who came in from behind, and firmly won the FA Cup championship.

Even if they lost to Guangzhou City, Jingcheng Cathay Pacific was still very tenacious.

Zhao Fei scored a volley from outside the penalty area and saved a lot of face.

Boss Lin attended in person and presented awards to all players of both teams.

Seeing Lin Shen presenting the award, every player became extremely excited.

Although he lost, Zhao Fei did not lose.

Lin Shen also smiled and patted Zhao Fei on the shoulder: "That goal just now was very beautiful. Come on for the World Cup."

"Thank you, Boss Lin."

Zhao Fei was so excited that he directly told Lin Shen what his players called him in private.

Lin Shen just smiled and continued to hand out trophies to others.

"Wocao, you're lucky. Boss Lin is giving you a guaranteed spot in the World Cup!"

The teammates all excitedly surrounded Zhao Fei, their eyes showing the slightest bit of envy.

As a player, who doesn’t want to play for the country?

As the host of next year's World Cup, the strength of the Chinese team has attracted the attention of the entire Europe.

One by one, the national players joined the five major league giants.

In terms of paper strength, the Chinese team has already joined the ranks of winning teams.

"Low-key, low-key, it's still early next year. I'm going to play for Leeds United soon, and the team's strength is a little bit worse."

Zhao Fei was also always feeling silly and happy, but also a little worried.

The forward position of the national football team is a carrot and a pit. The competitors are all the main players of the major giants. He is under great pressure.

"Leeds United are also very strong. They are a strong team in the Premier League. The Premier League is more competitive than the Champions League. We haven't settled yet."

As the season came to an end, each of them began to worry about their future.

They dream of going to the five major leagues.

Especially for the Premier League teams who spend a lot of money, it is their first choice for transfer.

"Brothers, please work hard and strive to be selected for the final list next year."

Zhao Fei can't say much. They can't completely control their own destiny and it depends on whether other teams are interested in them.

"Come on, come on, the Chinese Super League is not bad either. At least if we perform at home, we will have more chances to be seen by Boss Lin."

Other players also cheered, they couldn't just lie down completely.

…

The Guangzhou City players who had achieved their wish to win the championship also breathed a sigh of relief.

If they capsized in front of Lin Shen, their status as national football team would be in vain.

"Keep up the good work, and when we win the AFC Champions League, I will celebrate for you!"

Lin Shen handed out the medals one by one and then cheered the players.

"Don't worry, those rookies from West Asia can't beat us."

Wei Jie, the core of the Guangzhou City team, is quite confident about winning the AFC Champions League.

It's not that they are arrogant, it's just the fact.

Those teams in West Asia that only have money but no strength are not as difficult to deal with as Cathay Pacific.

Just a little bit away, they were about to be dragged into overtime by Beijing Cathay Pacific.

With only five days of rest, Guangzhou City players went to Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia.

As the only young tycoon in West Asia, Riyadh Hilal finally got its wish and entered the finals.

According to the competition system, West Asian teams play home first and then away.

At their home stadium, many Saudi fans booed loudly at the end of the first half.

0-3!

The home team was in front, but the visiting team's group of Chinese people were really merciless, as if they wanted to end the suspense of these two rounds of finals in the first half.

The referee on the field was also helpless, as the strength gap between the two teams was too big.

He has called Guangzhou City offside several times, but still failed to stop Guangzhou City's various world waves.

Thanks to the referee's efforts, the second half looked a little better.

The Saudis, who were originally suppressed, saw that their opponent's offensive firepower seemed to have declined, so they attacked amidst the boos of the fans throughout the game.

As everyone knows, these are all routines.

The Premier League championship-level lineup quickly caused the Saudis who came out to complain.

Walker on the right wing, as a full-back, played an explosive role as a winger in this game, completely dominating the rhythm of the entire wing.

With Wei Jie delivering ammunition in the middle, a group of attackers from Guangzhou City only need to be responsible for running out of position.

At the end of the whole game, the score was finally settled at 1-7!

Reis scored five points and contributed an amazing performance from the gods.

Having the template of Argentina's talented forward Alvarez, Reis also showed more potential in this game that made many scouts excited.

Absolutely a world-class forward prospect, and he is cheap enough now.

As for the reaction of Saudi fans, no one cares at all.

During the game, there were not many Saudi players who tried to do something dirty.

As a result, nothing happened to these Chinese players, but they lost their troops and generals.

When we got to the back, no one dared to make a move easily.

With the protection of the system, these players can handle injuries to their fullest.

If a player is fouled by a flagrant foul, it will be like a back-injury spiked armor, reflecting possible injuries to the player who committed the flagrant foul.

A week later, back at home.

Witnessed by 100,000 Guangzhou fans, Guangzhou City once again gave the fans a joyful game with a score of 3-0, which was already considered as letting go.

The AFC specially approached Lin Shen, hoping that this game would not be too miserable for the Saudi team, otherwise it would not be good for the overall image of the AFC.

The total score in the two rounds was 10-1, and one of the goals was a penalty kick deliberately awarded to the Saudi team by the referee.

Eisen deliberately failed to save, allowing Saudi Arabia to score a respectable goal that was better than nothing.

Many old Guangzhou City fans couldn't help but burst into tears.

From the time they became Guangzhou City fans, their children have grown up now.

Guangzhou City has never been able to win the championship.

Even fans like them feel shameless.

Now the team has won the first AFC Champions League trophy in team history, and has become the Triple Crown champion in one fell swoop. It has also defended its title in the Chinese Super League, and has the appearance of a dynasty.

This is an unparalleled honor in the Chinese Super League.

Since the sudden death of Evergrande next door, Chinese football has not been at the top of Asia for a long, long time.

This championship belongs not only to Guangzhou City fans, but also to all Chinese fans.

At present, the domestic football market is completely stimulated.

In terms of competitions, the Asian Cup championship allowed Chinese fans to taste the beauty of a championship for the first time.

In the AFC Champions League, Guangzhou City used an all-Chinese squad to launch a brutal massacre against the West Asian team with a score of 10-1 in two rounds.

The number of stars playing for wealthy clubs is increasing at a speed that stuns them.

Next year's World Cup will be held at home. Many fans' ambitions have unknowingly advanced from the group stage to the semi-finals, or even the semi-finals.

Maybe... they can be a little bolder?
