Chapter 1106 Football knows no borders, but footballers do!
Looking at the 16-year-old boy in front of him with a tender face and a very slender body, Gao Han felt a hint of impulse in his heart, but he quickly pressed down and nodded with a smile, "You said."
China does not recognize dual nationality, and Yang Xin's parents have not yet refused to be Spanish nationality, just to retain Chinese nationality.
Gao Han had seen them with a little bit of businessman's shrewdness, but he had nothing to say about his Chinese compatriots in a foreign country. He was also very popular in Chinatown. In addition, Yang Xin had been playing football on Chinatown since he was a child, which seemed like an emotional bond between Chinatown and Chinatown.
Even in the second team game, there will still be many Chinese compatriots from Chinatown to cheer for him in every game, especially after Wang Lei, Zhao Jun and others joined the team, more compatriots came to watch the game.
But there are some things that adults can make their own decisions, but they have to consider for their children's future.
For example, Yang Xin's parents belong to the traditional Chinese idea, and planned to earn a few more years in Europe and return to their hometown after they get old. For this reason, they built a house in their hometown to use it for the future of retirement.
But what about Yang Xin?
He grew up in Madrid since he was a child. In addition to accompanying his parents back home every few years, his impression of his hometown and China was not as profound as that of Madrid and Spain. To some extent, his Chinese was not as fluent and skillful as Spanish.
But with his reputation in Chinatown youth training camp in recent years, as he grows up, some things have come to the time to face and make choices.
Spain? Or China?
Yang Xin's parents also asked Gao Han to find out about the situation, but what can Gao Han say about this kind of thing? He was given a righteous name and told them that they should not betray their ancestors and forget their ancestors, and they must choose China?
There is no doubt that from the perspective of ordinary fans, Yang Xin can definitely be regarded as a genius.
The left-footed player has delicate skills, skilled dribbling, fast speed, and excellent explosive power. He has grown up in Chinatown's youth training system since he was a child, and has taken every step very solidly. He has always been the best performer and most active leader in the same age group.
Strictly speaking, Yang Xin is the real direct descendant of Chinatown.
Such a player has received great attention even in Spain, which is full of talents. The Spanish Football Association has frequently shown goodwill. The national team head coach Bosque and the national youth team head coach Lopetegui have mentioned him more than once to Gao Han, believing that he will become a great player in the future.
They didn't need to say this, Gao Han knew it.
When he first saw Yang Xin, the potential of this left-footed player was as high as 185, but now it has reached 190. This is the potential of the world's top superstar, which shows how great his current growth and progress are.
Gao Han has always believed that it is difficult to evaluate the development of some players. For example, Pogba is definitely a genius, but which position he is most suitable to play? This has always been a topic of exploration and research by Chinatown technical team.
There is also Wang Lei. Beijing Chinatown initially put him in the front midfield position, but later tried the midfield. As he got older, his height grew very fast and his flexibility slightly decreased. His current position is to drag the back midfield.
So can this position be delayed and able to realize all his potential?
Not necessarily, everyone is just trying and examining, and he is only seventeen years old. Who knows how he will develop in the next few years?
There is also Gao Ren, which is also a big trouble. He is not tall but very flexible. The speed of starting is very fast. When the ball reaches his feet, it will basically not be thrown. It is the kind of player who throws it on the court and can be seen by anyone, but where should he play?
But Yang Xin is different from them. He belongs to the type with very clear development lines. His characteristics are suitable for the wing, and he can play on the left winger with his left foot. However, with the current tactical development trend of European football, he should play on the right in the future.
Of course, Chinatown is also arranging him to strengthen his right foot training, which can greatly improve his comprehensiveness.
Yang Xin is a bit like Hesse in Chinatown. His talent is very obvious. You can see at a glance that the development route is also clear. There are only two major factors that can prevent them from realizing their potential. One is injury and the other is his own personality.
The most rare thing is that Hesse and Yang Xin's personalities are neither a problem, especially Yang Xin.
Such a player is about to be seventeen years old, which is equivalent to a quasi-star. As long as he is not injured or sick, according to the current development momentum, he will definitely be the main player in La Liga in less than three years, and he may even reach the European front-line level in three or four years. How could Spain miss it?
The benefits of joining the Spanish national team are also extremely obvious. He can start from the youth team and rise step by step. He will definitely join the national team within three years at most. There are many players in Chinatown this line. Players such as Hesse, Morata, Sebalos and Asensio are still walking. They are very experienced and will not be alone.
But joining the Chinese national team? What can I give him? Can I play in the World Cup? Can I add color to his career?
The reason why Yang Xin and his parents struggled and were in a dilemma was that they could not give up the blood-thickness in their hearts, and the marks of Chinese people were still engraved in the depths of their souls.
Gao Han is about to serve as the head coach of the national team. From a standpoint and emotional perspective, he certainly hopes that Yang Xin will choose China. From a rational perspective, joining Spanish nationality may be the best choice for Yang Xin and the most conducive to the players' future development.
But if this is the case, Yang Xin and his parents would not feel good either.
…………
…………
After a moment of thoughts in his mind, Gao Han suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Yang Xin.
It is indeed a bit sad to have to bear these things at a young age.
At this moment, he stood in front of Gao Han, but he was stammering and couldn't speak, obviously not knowing how to speak.
For him, a 16 or 17-year-old boy, this kind of thing was obviously beyond their thinking?
Gao Han sighed deeply, patted Yang Xin's shoulder gently, and signaled to say as he walked.
"In European football, it is very common for you, Germany, France, Spain, England... it is everywhere. No matter how you choose, there is nothing wrong with it. You don't need to care about other people's opinions and remarks. No one has the right to accuse you, including your parents, do you understand?"
"But..." Yang Xin certainly understood this truth, but he was still embarrassed.
Why is there no way to have the best of both worlds in this world?
"I want to say that no matter how you decide to choose, everyone in Chinatown and I will still support you as always as before. If you have any difficulties, you can still find me at any time, do you understand?"
Yang Xin nodded heavily. He trusted Gao Han, so he came to ask him for advice.
But he also understood that, besides his parents, who could give him any advice?
If Gao Han strongly asks him to make a choice, is it still Gao Han that he and all the students admire?
"Mr. Gao Han, can I... ask you a question?" Yang Xin mustered up the courage to ask.
Gao Han nodded, "You ask."
Yang Xin stopped, looked at Gao Han curiously, and asked, "Why do you want to coach the Chinese national team so much?"
Perhaps because he felt that his problem was a bit misunderstood, he quickly explained: "I mean, with your current status and influence, if you want to lead a national team to the World Cup, all teams will flock to it, but why would you choose to go back to lead the Chinese national team?"
Gao Han waved his hand at Yang Xin with a smile. He understood what Yang Xin meant and knew that the boy had no malice.
The Chinese national team is really bad, but Gao Han still wants to go back.
"You know, when I first started to lead Atletico Madrid, there were a lot of doubts. Everyone said that a head coach from China and a weak country in football can lead Atletico Madrid well? But I was unwilling to give up. I thought, why can't Chinese people play football well? Why can't they lead the team well?"
"You know, what was my mood when I first occupied the Champions League podium?"
Yang Xin shook his head vigorously, and he really couldn't feel it.
"Loneliness, very lonely." Gao Han's eyes flashed with sadness, "But it was this loneliness that made me understand one thing: football has no borders, but football people have it!"
"There is no doubt that Chinese football is still very behind, very behind, especially the national team, at that level..." Gao Han shook his head with a wry smile. After all, it was the team he was about to take over, and he really couldn't say something.
"But so what? No matter how high my personal achievements are, I am still a Chinese. The blood of Chinese is flowing in my body. Wherever I go, everyone will still point at me and say that he comes from a weak football country, China."
"Whether we admit it or not, a person or a club cannot represent Chinese football. Only the level of the national team can represent China. The weakness of Chinese football and the weakness of the national team all require someone to stand up, do something down-to-earth and change him."
"I am different from ordinary fans. The way fans support Chinese football is their attention. Even their abuse comes from their concern. But what about me? If I don't even want to contribute to Chinese football and just dislike and abuse like ordinary people, who else can Chinese football expect?"
"Many people are worried that I will fail, that I will lose everything I have achieved in the past decade, but in fact, I am not worried at all. Do you know why?"
Yang Xin shook his head vigorously again, and he looked at Gao Han with an extremely respectful look.
"If everything will leave me just because of failure, it will prove that everything I have done in the past decade is a complete failure."
Yang Xin is a smart child. After a moment of thinking, he understood and nodded in conscientiously, "Mr. Gao Han, no matter what others say, at least in my mind, you will always be the invincible Gao Han."
Gao Han laughed and said, "Who will lose, but who will never be defeated? Sooner or later, will lose."
Of course, Yang Xin understood that even if he led a team like China, even if he was as strong as Gao Han, he would still lose the game one day.
It is even very likely that from now on, Gao Han will have to work hard to learn to adapt and fail.
"Thank you, Mr. Gao Han." Yang Xin breathed a sigh of relief, "I benefited a lot after saying this to you."
Gao Han nodded, "What I said is me. You should think about it with your parents and remember what I said. No matter how I choose, I will support you."
"Well, I get it, I will think about it."
Gao Han stood there, watching Yang Xin turn around and walk back to the training ground, and sighed in his heart again.
If Chinese football continues to be so weak, there may be more people like Yang Xin in the future, and they may even be used by other countries.
After all,
Chapter completed!
