World Cup of Great Powers

Chapter 38 Toulon Cup

In this way, after bringing Han Tao back from the border, Zeng Zheng temporarily left him at the Huayuankou youth training base.

With Han Tao's ability, he is more than enough to serve as a coach for these primary school students.

Among the remaining Jianlibao students, all the members from the army, Zeng Zheng did not use his strength.

Although the players all have a good relationship with Zeng Zheng, his family members also welcome Zeng Zheng with a smile.

But Zeng Zheng was unable to describe to them that this semi-military force was doomed to decline in the future. With the ideological support of seeking an official position, these students naturally failed to obtain any of them.

But Zeng Zheng was not discouraged.

After contacting other local sports teams, most of them did not have close ties with the local clubs, or because of the face of Zeng Zheng and the red envelope in his hand, they finally chose to let him go.

As a result, the relationship between Zhang Xiaorui (Tianjin), Hao Wei (Shandong), Wang Wenhua (Hubei), Liu Lin, Zheng Bin (Wuhan), Ma Yongkang (Qingdao), and the Tao Committee (Beijing) also transferred to Zeng Zhengming

Down.

In addition to the previous six players Sun Zhi, Li Weifeng, Li Jinyu, Li Tie, Yao Li and Liu Yunfei who was recruited from Tianjin, Zeng Zheng barely managed to make up a team with three substitutes.

Counting "teaching assistant" Han Tao, Jianlibao has studied 29 people abroad, 14 of whom were acquired by Zeng Zheng.

Witnessing one contract after another being deposited into a bank safe, Zeng Zheng's self-confidence gradually expanded.

The team has basically taken shape, and all that's left is to add edge improvements.

For example, spend some money to hire a foreign aid, a teaching assistant, etc.

There is a foreigner on the sidelines of the field. It seems that this team is on a "higher level"!

...

Time rushed into April, and Jianlibao was about to return to China after completing his studies in less than a month.

The return of this team touches the hearts of countless fans.

Whether the players will stay or leave, and where they will go, the fans simply don’t know.

But as long as this team is still established, fans hope that it can bring more surprises.

For example, champion.

On this day, Zeng Zheng was selecting suitable foreign players from a large amount of information when the Big Brother bell rang.

"Hello, who's there?"

"Xiao Zeng, is that you?" A long-lost and familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Coach Zhu?"

Zhu Guanghu, that was Zeng Zheng’s immediate boss!

"Xiao Zeng, you are such a big name as the head coach of the national team! You coached two games and you missed half a year of work!"

"Hey, Coach Zhu, don't say that! This is the third time Jianlibao has entered the palace, and the conditions are not as hard as the first time. It's useless for me to follow!"

Jianlibao went to Brazil for the first time, and what he experienced was really Brazilian grassroots football.

Not to mention Rujetiba Mountain, which is far away, there is not even a decent football field.

The players not only have to train, but they also have to do odd jobs to improve their food. It can be said that they don’t need anything.

After several years of development.

Under the leadership of Zeng Zheng, Jianlibao not only became famous in Brazil, but also participated in all available amateur cups and won many unknown championships.

Because of their outstanding results, they went to Brazil for the third time. The whole team was stationed in a dormitory next to Grukiba Athletic Club, so they could experience the atmosphere of Brazil's domestic high-level league at any time.

Coupled with the systematic logistics support and the training methods that the team members have long been familiar with, there is not much difference whether Zeng Zheng is there or not.

But obviously, Zhu Guanghu had no intention of letting Zeng Zheng go.

"You are really good at talking! Just pat your butt and leave. These energetic young men are like wild horses that are running wild, causing trouble for me all day long. In order to wipe my butt for them, my hair almost fell out."

Now. Tell me what you are going to do!"

"Hey, Coach Zhu, please stop arranging me. With you in Brazil, who would dare to explode?"

No wonder Zeng Zheng said this.

Although Zhu Guanghu is nominally the coach of Jianlibao Zhu.

But since we have been together for such a long time, the players’ skills, tactics, formations, etc. are basically all created by Zeng Zheng.

Zhu Guanghu gradually took a back seat from the head coach to become the team leader, more often in charge of discipline and controlling the overall situation.

Maybe those Jianlibao boys could still joke with Zeng Zheng, but when they saw Zhu Guanghu with his big mouth, they were all too frightened to say a word.

Just like a naughty student meeting his homeroom teacher.

After chatting for a while, Zhu Guanghu entered the topic.

"Xiao Zeng, how are you doing with your own affairs?"

"It's done!"

Zeng Zheng did not hide this matter from Zhu Guanghu.

For Zhu Guanghu, he doesn't want to see the team he has worked hard for 4 or 5 years disband after returning to China.

"Almost half of the establishment can be retained."

"Hey! Half? You're pretty good, you're very capable! I thought that six or seven would be your limit, but I didn't expect it to be half!" Zhu Guanghu's voice was also full of joy.

Half of them can't be called "tinder", but can be called "establishment".

"What about the team? Have you thought about the name? Where is the home court?"

"I'm still looking at this." Zeng Zheng said truthfully, "I plan to buy a ready-made shell at the end of the year and put it in together. As for the home court and venue, I really have no money, so I can only leave.

Take it one step at a time to see if there is a suitable boss to invest in."

"Hey, I'm really sorry for you. Owning a club is not something ordinary people can afford. You said, can't you just be a coach? You have to do so many fancy things."

After Zhu Guanghu complained to Zeng Zheng for a few words, he said seriously: "Jianli BMW will return to China soon, but it will not be disbanded immediately after returning to China. After all, this year A, A, and B have all started, and in the past half year

Don’t let them sit idle either.”

"Remember the Toulon Cup I told you about?"

"Zhu Xie talked to me and said that he would not send the national youth team to the national youth team and gave the quota to Jianlibao."

"Xiao Zeng, I heard that Europe also cares about the Toulon Cup. You can't let the leaders down!"

"It just so happens that we can take this opportunity to let these boys get in touch with the atmosphere of the World Cup in advance."

Zeng Zheng was stunned for a moment, then recalled.

The Toulon Cup in France has been held annually since its second edition in 1974. Most of the participants are players between the 21-22 age group.

The Toulon Cup has always attracted considerable attention from FIFA and UEFA.

History has proven countless times that the players participating in the "Toulon Cup" are candidates for the future national teams of each participating country.

The Toulon Cup has become the cradle for cultivating international stars.

Not only that, the Toulon Cup is also one of the ways for talent exchanges between countries.

Every year, a large number of scouts go to the Toulon Cup to select potential new stars, and then recommend them to suitable places, including many of the top five European leagues.

For national teams, the Toulon Cup is a "free" window to learn about world football and strengthen exchanges.

Competing with other players of the same age around the world at the youth stage allows you to deeply understand each other's strengths and weaknesses.

Some even say that the result of the Toulon Cup will determine the performance of the national team in the next ten years.

Of course, this sentence is an exaggeration.

But a glimpse of something reveals the whole story, and it is still necessary to test the strength of a national youth team through the Toulon Cup.

Historically, Guozihao has participated in the Toulon Cup three times and achieved sixth, seventh and eighth results respectively.

It has been 15 years since I last participated in the Toulon Cup.

This time Guozihao once again received an invitation to the Toulon Cup, which also proves from another aspect that Jianlibao, who is in this age group, is still somewhat famous in the international football world.

This time, Bamboo Shoes asked the national youth team to give way to Jianlibao, also wanting to see what level this team is currently at.

"Coach Zhu, do you have any requirements for bamboo shoes this time?"

"As for the request... I didn't mention it. But no matter what, you have to qualify in the group, right?"

"The group qualified..." Zeng Zheng nodded.

It's still easy to qualify.

As if he could hear the "hesitation" in Zeng Zheng's words, Zhu Guanghu consoled him:

"Xiao Zeng, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

"It just so happens that I can take this opportunity to let those guys who refuse to accept anyone every day know what it means that there are people outside the world and people above us."

"Lest they think that after playing in Brazil for a few years, they will be invincible."

"It's better to let them stumble..."

Failed in Toulon Cup?

Zeng Zheng curled his lips.

Fans don’t know the true depth of the Toulon Cup.

If I really fail in the Toulon Cup, the fans will have to skin me!
