Chapter 138: Go to Brazil
Because of Li Yuanshan's affairs, Gao Bo did not stay in China for more than half a month as planned. Instead, he returned to England a week later.
What Gao Bo didn't expect is that Li Yuanshan's English is pretty good.
"Grandpa taught me!" Li Yuanshan was a little proud when he mentioned this, the young man grinned openly.
Gao Bo nodded, Chen Lao still has a foresight, the domestic football environment is bleak, if you want to develop abroad, English is essential.
"When I arrive in the UK, I will apply for a Portuguese training course for you. You must learn basic Portuguese language communication within half a year." Due to the relationship between Mr. Chen, Gao Bo treated Li Yuanshan as his younger brother. In these matters, He did not speak in a deliberate tone, but made the decision directly.
"Why?" Li Yuanshan obviously didn't understand.
"Because of the labor certification!" Gao Bo said.
In the current situation of Li Yuanshan, he is absolutely unable to apply for a labor license. Therefore, even if Luton signs him, he can only play in some friendly matches. In the U-series league under the FA, Li Yuanshan cannot Played.
"I have reformulated the training plan for you. Your physical fitness is good. This body can't be wasted. As a center forward, you must learn how to use your body and improve your skills at the same time. Shooting, passing, and defending. The ball and even the basic dribbling need to be re-intensified. In addition to completing the youth training academy courses in this six months, you must work harder on this part of the course."
Li Yuanshan nodded. Although he has not known each other for a long time, the young man's mind is pure, and he can feel whoever treats him well.
"Why should I learn Portuguese?"
"Because you are going to play in Portugal in half a year, what you need at your age is playing time."
The reason why Gao Bo said he was going to Portugal is because he has decided to cooperate with Mendes.
Yes, it is cooperation!
Mendez set up an independent brokerage company under his company. This company is a joint stock between him and Gao Bo. Gao Bo is responsible for introducing players to him, and Mendes is responsible for the players' specific economic affairs.
Gao Bo still puts his focus on football. For this aspect, it is better to find a professional person to cooperate than to do it yourself.
Mendez's level of business is unquestionable, and Gao Bo also believes that with his ten years of football vision, the future players will be popular. Gao Bo is naturally very clear.
Such an economic offensive will undoubtedly make a lot of money! Gao Bo can be sure.
And Mendes is attracted to Gao Bo, this is his key to enter the Chinese market!
Mendes believed in his own vision, he even thought that Gao Bo was the second Mourinho!
When the first Mourinho appeared, with the help of Porto to win the Champions League, Mendes monopolized Portuguese football and became one of the leading agents in European football! And if his bet on Gao Bo is successful this time, he is likely to get a supermarket ten times larger than Portugal!
Even if it didn't succeed, Mendes didn't have any good losses. He even made a profit. Mendes would definitely not lose money if he could get those small players from Luton.
How could businessman Mendes do business at a loss?
For Gao Bo, he chose to cooperate with Mendes, so naturally there are his considerations.
In European football, are there any agents with more connections than Mendes?
Gao Bo knows that he is a foreigner compared to Europe. This is his biggest disadvantage. He basically has no contacts in the European football circle. In order to find a goalkeeper coach, he had to let John go.
In this case, choosing to cooperate with the well-connected Mendes is undoubtedly the most convenient result.
The resources owned by Mendes are incomparable to Gaobo, and to a large extent this can solve many problems of Gaobo—the problems of the future.
Gao Bo regards himself as a pure football coach. He is actually not good at doing business. If he can, Gao Bo doesn't want to participate in the brainstorming things like transfer negotiations.
Just in Luton now, there are still many things that need to be done by yourself.
The first team is on holiday, but the youth academy has not yet. After Li Yuanshan was assigned to the Youth Training Academy, Gao Bo immediately started the new season.
The summer transfer window has not yet opened. Luton has a few players who need to be transferred. The most important deal is undoubtedly Charlie Austin.
In Gao Bo's impression, the Smalling introduced by Manchester United from Fulham next year will cost 10 million pounds. Charlie Austin dare not say to sell at this price, but Gao Bo still dares to call out the price of six or seven million. .
Although there is no sale yet, Gao Bo still has the team's budget of more than three million pounds this season. This budget is enough to start the transfer without waiting for Charlie to sell.
Gao Bo needs to continue to strengthen the team's lineup, the first to bear the brunt, of course, is the reinforcement of the back line.
...
Brazil, Parana state, downtown Curitiba.
This is a very unfamiliar city to Chinese people. At the same time, there is a club in this city that is even more unfamiliar to Chinese fans-Parana Athletic Club!
Gao Bo appeared here, naturally for his team to sign in.
Alex Sandro!
This is a very unfamiliar name to current fans, but this name is not unfamiliar to Gao Bo.
The Brazilian who played for Juventus in later generations was a left-back who was very good at both offensive and defensive ends. He could also play the left wingback, and even played wingers in key situations.
The offensive attributes of Brazilian players are always reassuring.
The level of Brazilian football that has won five World Cup titles is universally recognized. The Kingdom of football has a large number of players playing around the world. Brazilian players are active in various European leagues. Almost every giant team can always find one or two Brazilians.
So many outstanding Brazilian players are active in the European League and have become Brazil's huge overseas army. Almost every Brazilian national team is supported by these people.
But in fact, many Brazilian stars have come out of Brazil's own domestic league.
Brazil's league is very large and complicated...their football teams are too many, and some people even doubt whether there is a unified national professional league in Brazil a huge and complicated league system of various states. Chaotic tournament organization, in such chaos, how many pearls are hidden in Brazil's league system, no one can say.
It was only in 2004 that the Brazilian Football Association began to organize domestic competitions. They were in line with international standards and adopted a double-circle points system for home and away games. At this time, there will be official Division A and Division B leagues.
Athletic Club Parana is the Brazilian national second division team.
After Gao Bo arrived in Brazil, he didn't have much rest, so he went straight to this place and found this little Brazilian club.
In fact, Gao Bo only knows Alex Sandro's energy in Europe, but Gao Bo is not quite clear about his situation in Brazil.
But thanks to the great Internet and FM, Gao Bo finally found the name in the database. After comparing his age and facial features, Gao Bo finally came to Brazil.
I hope that his information will not make any mistakes.
Alex Sandro is a full-back. Although he does not know his current strength, Gao Bo knows how successful he will be in the future!
The 18-year-old Sandro will get some chances to play in the second division this season, and then he will be valued by the Brazilian giants Santos immediately, and then on a big platform like Santos, Sandro will start to become famous, and he will soon be recognized by the Brazilian national The U-series echelon of the team values it and has a star-shining performance in the World Youth Championship and the South American Youth Championship.
When he moved to Porto at the age of 22, Porto paid a price of close to 10 million euros-this is a sky-high price for a defender who has never logged into the European League.
What Gao Bo has to do is to take Sandro to England before Santos starts!
