Prominence in Football Community

In this way, Gao Zheng started his training life in Sampdoria's first team.

In the beginning, because everyone had gone through a holiday, the training was mainly to restore the body, and the amount of training was not large.

But as time went by, the amount of training gradually increased.

At this stage, physical training is still being carried out to reserve enough physical energy for the new season.

The training intensity of the first team is indeed greater than that of the reserve team.

But Gao Zheng felt that he could still bear it, and his body was not overloaded.

Thinking about it, it is all thanks to the training and adaptation I received in the reserve team.

If he had directly entered the first team, with his physical condition at that time, I am afraid it would be difficult to persist.

So last season Gao Zheng was not in a hurry not to go to the first team, and he also very much agreed with the reserve team coach Bruni's training plan for him.

Speaking of Bruni, I don't know how he is doing in his new team...

First-team coach Gianluca Atezori was on the sidelines with general manager Sagramola and new first-team sporting manager Pasquale Sensi as the team practiced on the training ground Billy, talk to Doriano Radici, who is in charge of the team.

While talking, everyone's eyes fell on the players on the field.

That thin and tall guy is tall. Latic was introducing Gao Zheng to the first-team coach Atzori. Although he only came to the reserve team for half a season, he quickly became the core of the reserve team. Coach Bruni believes that his talent is still higher than that of Mauro Icardi.

Atzori frowned, just from this thin body, he really couldn't see how good his talent was.

Who is Coach Bruni? he asked.

Oh, the head coach of the reserve team, he led the reserve team to win the reserve team league championship last season, mainly thanks to Gao and Icardi. Latic explained, as a sports manager who is responsible for the recruitment of young players , he is more familiar with the echelon than everyone present, and naturally has more say. Actually, last season we tried to transfer him to the first team, but it didn't work out...

Why didn't it work? Atzori asked curiously.

Bruni didn't agree. He thought Gao was not ready yet, and he should practice more in the reserve team.

Although Gao is very talented, he also has problems. His physical fitness is not very good...so he always played as a substitute in the reserve team, and he didn't start until the final against Rome. Latic added.

Atzori laughed: Play the core of the bench? There was some irony in his laughter.

Uh... Radich was a little embarrassed, how could he not understand Atzori's meaning? But he remembered Bruni's exhortation to him before he left, and decided to relay Bruni's words to Atzori. When he first came to the team, his physical fitness was really bad, but after half a season of training, his physical fitness is much better than before. But the first team and the reserve team are still different after all, whether it is training intensity or competition intensity They are all much bigger, you can let him play as a substitute first, this can be explained to the player himself, I believe he is also completely acceptable...

Atzori interrupted Latic and said in a bad tone: Mr. Latic, thank you for your extra explanation. But I seem to remember that the club invited me to be the head coach.

Latic was a little surprised by Atzori's reaction, he was just out of kindness, but it seems that Atzori misunderstood what he meant?

There was an embarrassing silence between the four of them.

In the end, the general manager of the club, Sagramola, stood up and smoothed things over: Well, our club is also very optimistic about Gao's talents, so we will have some suggestions. Of course, the first team is still dominated by the head coach, which must not be the case. questionable.

That's good, Mr. General Manager. Atzori squeezed a smile at Sagramola, and then glanced at Radich.

Radich lowered his head and said nothing.

A few days after entering the first team training, Gao Zheng received another call from Alberto Massi.

This time Marcy came to say goodbye to him.

It has been decided that I will go to Provelcelli.

Where is that...? Gao Zheng was really unfamiliar with these names.

A wealthy team that has won seven top league championships, is it amazing!

what?

Well, what I'm talking about is history, what happened a hundred years ago... Well, it's now in the C1 League.

In simple terms, the Italian League can be divided into three football leagues for management.

The first is the National Professional Football League, which manages two leagues, the most familiar Serie A and Serie B.

The second league is the Italian Football Professional League. Although it is called a professional league, it actually manages the third division. The Serie C league is divided into two levels, the C1 League and the C2 League. However, Italy is now discussing the reform of the C League. In the future, the C2 League may be canceled and merged with the C1 League.

The third is the National Amateur Football League, which manages the Italian D-League. This league is divided into nine districts according to the administrative division.

Further down, there are league levels, such as the Excellence League divided into 28 districts, the Promotion League divided into 54 districts... and so on.

Provelcelli, where Massi is going, is in the C1 League. Although it is one level lower than the B League, it is still a real professional league. The training effect for players is definitely better than that of the reserve league.

Very good, are you renting out to exercise?

No, transfer.

What? Gao Zheng thought he had heard wrong.

Well, it's actually a co-ownership. The club gave half of my ownership to Provelcelli. Massey explained.

For Italian football clubs, it is very common to make full use of the way of co-ownership to trade players, especially for the training of young players.

You still have half of the ownership in Sampdoria, so I'm still waiting for you in the first team, ha!

I will try! I would also like to play at the Blasi Stadium (Note: Luigi Ferraris Stadium is the official name, but Sampdoria fans and players prefer to call this stadium 'Blasi' , because this stadium is in the Brasi district of Genoa, I took it for granted that I wrote it wrong in the chapter 'a stadium', for Sampdoria supporters, you call the Blasi stadium Ferraris It will offend people, it has been changed) to play football!

Then let's make an agreement to play in the first team together.

Okay, promise! I don't want to be your opponent! Marcy laughed on the phone. Although it is the C1 League, I will do my best!

On the day Marci bid farewell to Gao Zheng, Sampdoria ushered in the second new signing after the new head coach Atezori took office, Federico Piovacari.

This player has played in the Inter Milan youth team for a long time, but failed to play in the Inter Milan first team. Last season, he played 38 times for Chittadella in Serie B and scored 23 goals. He was the top scorer in Serie B last season.

This player was bought by Atezori after he took office, obviously because of his excellent scoring ability in Serie B.

The reason why Sampdoria was relegated last season had a lot to do with the fact that they sold off the team's two main strikers Cassano and Pacini during the winter break.

Therefore, in the new season, the new head coach will start by strengthening the striker's strength, and it seems that there is no problem.

You must know that Piowakari is not the only striker that Atezori bought after he took office.

Before the team reported, the Sampdoria club had already finalized the transfer of another striker, Christian Bertani, at his behest.

Also a striker who performed well in the second division last season, Bertani made 35 league appearances for Novara, scoring 17 goals and seven assists. Helped Novara into the First Division.

Obviously, these two forwards are the main partners appointed by Atezori for Sampdoria to play in the second division.

Judging from the performance of last season, the introduction of these two is almost impeccable.

But not everyone sees it that way.

Borata took the newspaper and complained to his son: What striker to buy! One is 3.5 million, the other is 1.1 million... the total is 4.6 million! It's a waste! Put it aside Gao and Icardi are useless, they spent more than 4 million to buy two forwards... Doesn’t the new head coach know Gao’s performance in the reserve team game!

There is a big difference between the reserve team and the first team... Franco said. Perhaps in the eyes of the head coach, the reserve team is doing well, but the first team has to start from scratch.

Borata cursed reflexively: What do you know!

Franco was very aggrieved: There is indeed a big gap between the reserve team and the first team. Otherwise, there are so many reserve team players, but how can so few gain a firm foothold in the first team?

Seeing that his son dared to talk back, Borata was furious: Get out! Go back to your kitchen!

Franco didn't dare to disobey his father, so he pouted and went back to the kitchen.

And Borata continued behind the counter alone, looking at the photos of the new aid in the newspaper, humming dissatisfiedly: Gao is not the same as those ordinary reserve players! He is a genius!

PS, so what, it seems that life is indeed far more exaggerated and YY than fiction.

From now on, I won’t have any psychological burden no matter how YY is in the novel—someone dares to say that I’m not real, and I’ll take those unbelievable victories in football matches to prove it!

England actually lost to Croatia in a good situation!

This time I really want to come home...

Oh, don't worry, they will have another inconsequential game against Belgium...
