Chapter 54 Talent is like pregnancy, it cannot be hidden after a long time
After Jiang Yuan left the office, Enrique and Alvarenga started chatting.
"Losos, do you really think this little guy will be able to come off the bench next season?"
Enrique was surprised by what Alvarenga had just said. After all, the first-team coach Lopetegui was not particularly fond of using newcomers.
Moreover, Porto needs to compete with Benfica and Sporting CP for a place in the Champions League in the Portuguese Super League, so every league game is very important for Porto.
In this case, Jiang Yuan may not have many opportunities to come on as a substitute.
"Haha, this is the person you brought here, and now you don't believe him? What, do you think there's something wrong with your judgment?"
Alvarenga joked that he was the one who did not believe in Jiang Yuan's ability before, but now it was Enrique who brought Jiang Yuan to Porto.
Luis Enrique smiled and said: "Losos, I brought him here to be a striker for the U17 team. At most, I let him play for the U19 team. Who would have thought that he would go to the first team!"
"Isn't that good? The training content of the first team will be more helpful to Jiang's growth. In addition, this Chinese kid is very hardworking. I really want to see where his ceiling is..."
As he spoke, Alvarenga looked up at the ceiling, wondering what was going on in his mind.
"Paul, to be honest, I brought him here, so if he can't play football, I will be embarrassed..."
Enrique said that although Jiang Yuan was brought to the first team by Lopetegui, which was enough to prove his unique vision, the problem was that if Jiang Yuan could not play, he would not know how to face Jiang Yuan.
Hearing Enrique's concerns, Alvarenga suddenly stood up, sat next to Enrique, patted his shoulder, and comforted him: "Don't worry, you have to know that talent is like pregnancy, it can't be hidden for a long time..."
……
On the other hand, assistant coach Hemiel informed the U17 players of the news that Jiang Yuan was about to leave the team. Seeing this Chinese boy who was spotted by the first-team coach shortly after his arrival, the U17 players all cast envious glances at him.
This made Jiang Yuan very embarrassed. To be honest, although he was the only yellow person here, everyone got along pretty well. Jiang Yuan didn't expect that he would leave them so soon.
In the afternoon, Jiang Yuan was sitting in the dormitory with a football in his hand, just when Felix came back from training.
"Jiang, you're going to the first team tomorrow, aren't you going to pack your luggage or something?"
Felix looked at the messy clothes on Jiang Yuan's bed and wanted to come up to help.
"Ah? The first team's training ground is no more than 2km away from here, so there doesn't seem to be any need to move, right?"
Jiang Yuan smiled and said, besides, the players of the first team basically have more than one property in Porto, and no one will live in the base.
Jiang Yuan said that there was no need to move there, he just thought U17 was more lively.
"That's right too!"
Felix nodded. This Tanzanian boy always gave people a lively feeling, and Jiang Yuan got along very well with him.
Suddenly, Felix seemed to have thought of something and sat down on Jiang Yuan's bed: "Jiang, Mr. Hu Lun has recruited you to the first team. Do you think you can get a chance to play?"
"cannot"
Jiang Yuan shook his head. He was telling the truth. With his current strength, he could play in the Portuguese Super League, but the problem was that Porto was one of the top clubs in the Portuguese Super League, with a lot of excellent strikers. Jiang Yuan, a newcomer, was afraid that he would not get any chance to play.
Besides, an athlete’s age represents a person’s on-field experience. Jiang Yuan is not even 17 years old, so how can the head coach trust him?
"Hey"
Hearing this, Felix sighed: "To be honest, I envy you, but I can't envy you enough. Because I really can't accept the intensity of your training. I wish I could be half as hard as you!"
Jiang Yuan felt a little embarrassed when he heard Felix say this about him.
Having said that, the reason why I feel so guilty is 9% due to the system!
But having said that, we still need to comfort those who need comfort.
"Man, if you really have an idea, you should work hard for it!"
"But I don't have as strong a talent as you, so what's the point of working hard?"
There was a hint of disappointment in Felix's eyes.
"Working harder than others is a talent, isn't it?" "I... then what do you think my worth will be?"
Felix's eyes seemed to glow.
Jiang Yuan thought about it. Felix's value rose to 1 million euros after he joined Atletico Madrid. This young Portuguese seemed to have not yet realized his talent.
So Jiang Yuan said to Felix: "Maybe... one hundred million?"
"Hahaha, Jiang, 1 million, do you think I'm Cristiano Ronaldo?"
Felix laughed. Currently, the only ones worth more than 100 million euros are his Portuguese predecessor and the Argentine.
Jiang Yuan shrugged and said indifferently: "Joao, believe it or not, it's up to you."
Felix shook his head: "I don't believe it"
"Forehead……"
Felix ran outside to take a shower, and Jiang Yuan was left alone in the dormitory.
Only hard work can make you a truly strong person.
"System, start!"
Jiang Yuan 16 years and 10 months
Height: 179.5cm
Weight: XNUM X kg
Dominant foot: right foot
“Grown a little taller”
Jiang Yuan was a little happy, but he couldn't really be happy.
A height of 179.5cm looks no different from 180cm, but it is still within the range of 1m.
Fortunately, Jiang Yuan can be sure that his epiphyseal line has not closed yet, and it can even be said that he still has a lot of room for growth.
Just as Jiang Yuan began to imagine the first-team training life tomorrow, his phone rang.
The people who called were Jiang's father and mother, and the voice of his younger brother Jiang Hao could be vaguely heard on the line.
"Yuan, I hope it doesn't bother you to call you at this time?"
This was mother Dong Huiqing speaking. In order to make this call to Jiang Yuan, he and Jiang Shengping specifically checked the time difference between China and European countries, and asked about the summer training time for European echelon players. It can be said that they put in a lot of effort.
"No, no, how could that be!"
Jiang Yuan answered hurriedly. It was cruel to say that he had been in Portugal for more than three weeks and had not even thought of calling his parents.
Hearing this, Dong Huiqing on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good, Yuan, how are you living in Spain? Have you encountered any difficulties?"
"Spain?"
Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "Um... Mom, I actually play football in Portugal"
"Ah, so Porto is in Portugal. Mom never understood and thought you were in Spain!"
After hearing what his mother said, Jiang Yuan's head was filled with confusion.
Jiang Yuan was sure that there was a reason why he forgot his parents during training. It turned out that this thing could be inherited?
On the other end of the phone, Jiang Shengping motioned for Dong Huiqing to continue, "Yuan, how are you doing in Spain...Portugal? Are you having any difficulties?"
Jiang Yuan licked his lips and said, "How can it be difficult? I can just kill people here at will!"
"Ah! My dear son, why did you start killing people when you went abroad? Please don't do this!"
"..."
Dong Huiqing's words successfully left Jiang Yuan speechless.
"Mom, is there a possibility? I mean possibility, what I mean by killing indiscriminately is that I don't have any pressure playing football here?"
