It is clear that the Repubblica There are still a lot of praises for Leon, the Chinese head coach of Sporting Gijón has a very accurate eye, look at the players he introduced in the summer transfer market, Di Natale only spent 300,000 euros, and now, the performance of the Italian is obvious to all, Di Natale was selected for the best team in the half of La Liga, in addition, Diego Milito is also almost cheap to join, and now in the La Liga scorer list and Barcelona's Eto'o is tied for the top scorer list, according to media estimates, Milito's current value has exceeded 10 million euros, more than ten times appreciated. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

And left-back Grosso, his performance is also remarkable, and his value has risen a lot.

As for Modric, Ivanovic and Benzema and other young players, they are also eye-catching, especially Benzema, the French boy, who has attracted the attention of many giants. It is said that Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admires this fellow Frenchman very much.

Ribery and Pepe, on the other hand, are now the main players of Sporting Gijón, and their outstanding performances have also won praise from the media. The former, in particular, joined Sporting Gijón from the lower divisions of France and, after a sluggish start to the season, began to show people his football talent, which was amazing. Pepe has also improved rapidly under Hierro's words and deeds, although he is still a little frizzy, but he can already see the shadow of a great central defender in the young Brazilian Portuguese star.

Li Ang's vision of people is also praised by people. This, combined with Sporting Gijón's current league results and standings, is why La Repubblica has put Leon on par with the managers of the big four, and they are looking forward to what Leon will do in this winter transfer market.

***********

Of course, it's not all compliments.

"Marca" questioned the deal that Sporting Gijón was about to complete to sell Isma to Mallorca in exchange for a transfer fee and Juan Arango, "Mallorca" thought that Leon was dizzy, and they firmly believed that Leon would regret it, and Sporting Gijón would have a central defender crisis because of the loss of Isma, and at the same time, they ridiculed the Venezuelan player Juan Arango, who Leon introduced.

"The Venezuelan, who is almost worth nothing as a transfer add-on, sorry, we really don't see what he has to do in the Europa League, did we impress us in the half season in Mallorca......? This Venezuelan may return to the Americas after half a season......"

La Repubblica is a big newspaper in Spain, and their newspapers are available everywhere.

Juan Arango, who has completed his medical examination and is looking for a place to live in Gijón and is ready to join Sporting Gijón when the transfer market opens on New Year's Day, is naturally aware of these reports.

It should be said that the Venezuelans are somewhat frustrated, and the player, who dominated the Mexican league and was named a star by some official media a few years ago, is now clearly lacking in self-confidence after a slump in half a season at Mallorca.

Now, the only thing Arango can console himself with is that he learned from Sporting Gijón assistant coach Scottry that it was head coach Leon who named him to join Isma's transfer, which made Arango a little excited, and he only hoped that his arrival at Sporting Gijón would be a turning point in his career.

In the face of the media's skepticism, the Venezuelanian could only endure in silence, he endured in silence, he was eager to be able to show his football talent, he was eager to prove himself......
