At the Braga training base, although the weather is hot, the sea breeze from time to time can still play a refreshing role and make people feel refreshed.

With more than 30 players in Braga's first team gathered for the morning training, Yaltium introduced Tang Hong to everyone and didn't intend to bother with words.

The players in Braga only glanced at Tang Hong with different looks, and even if they recognized him, they didn't pay attention to him anymore.

It's normal for players to change within a team, and even more so in a Portuguese Super League team.

In the first ten years of the 21st century, Dutch players are the hard currency in the transfer market, thanks to Van Gaal's Ajax golden generation and the implementation of the Boseman Act, since the previous generation of Dutch geniuses, Robben, Sneijder, Van Persie, Van der Vaart, etc.

This is inseparable from Mendes' rise in European football as an agent predator, constantly recruiting players from South America and promoting them to the top five leagues after processing in the Portuguese Super League.

Braga, as the team that has risen in the past decade and is closest to subverting the traditional order of the Portuguese Super League, has not relied on the owner to engage in gold dollar football, but has gradually developed into a virtuous circle with carefully selected low-cost reinforcements, careful cultivation and careful cultivation.

Over the past 10 seasons, Braga's spending and income in the transfer market have combined and they have made a profit of 30 million euros!

There will naturally be a period of mass replacement, and in terms of changes in the transfer market this summer, Braga has more than 20 players leaving!

There are also more than 20 recruits!

Not all players will be in and out of the first team, and there are also players who have been bought and loaned out without even entering the club goal, such as Juanca, who came out of Real Madrid's academy, and Braga who bought out for 2.2 million euros and then loaned to Zaragoza.

Like the old goalkeeper Quiem's debut in Braga, he went to Benfica after ten years of play, stayed at Benfica for six years and then returned to Braga to play his residual heat, his seventeen-year career before and after because he was not diligent in changing owners, so he experienced and witnessed countless pictures of people coming and going in the locker room, of course, there will be no special reaction because of the newcomer, just like assistant coach Vieira said that it is not certain whether he can stay.

Braga due to the success of last season's Europa League, they sold a lot of cash back in the summer, among which Pizzi and Silvio went to Atletico Madrid to increase the club's income by nearly 20 million euros, but the club did not spend all this money, so far it has only spent less than 5 million euros, which can be seen as the board of directors is stingy, or it can be seen that the board of directors has not blindly expanded, because in fact, spending an extra 10 million euros may not bring much change to the club.

In fact, Braga does not have the financial resources to bring in tens of millions of euros of players, and if you do not count the more than two million euros spent on buying out Juanca this season, the club's biggest expenditure on reinforcements is the purchase of the current main center Lima from Brazil, which cost less than 1.5 million euros six years ago.

To buy a player at the level of tens of millions of euros, it is natural to give the player a salary that matches his value, which is the helplessness of the small team, directly let them take out 10 million euros, in fact, they can grit their teeth and smash it out, but what about after that? What is the annual payroll cost? As a result of the knock-on effects of the shock to the wage system?

Therefore, it is still more difficult for Braga to challenge the three giants of the Portuguese Super League with stronger financial resources, it seems that most of the past few years have been fourth in the league, and in 10 years they won the best second place in the history of the club's Portuguese Super League, but last season they were immediately beaten back to their original form and won the fourth place, although it seems that the ranking has not changed dramatically, but look at the point difference to know how much the gap has been widened!

Porto won the title unbeaten last season, with 27 wins and three draws in 30 league games, enough to make any team in the world desperate for a record when they came to the Portuguese Super League, and they recorded a record of 84 points.

Braga is fourth with only 46 points, a difference of 38 points from the champion!

Even if you compare the 71 points of the 10-year Braga runner-up, Braga has slipped by 25 points last season!

Even if there is a reason for the lack of performance in the league while taking into account European competition, it is impossible to say that this is in the context of Porto reaching the Europa League final at the same time and beating Braga 1-0 to win the cup.

Last year's Portuguese Super League saw Jose Mourinho II Villas-Boas, with the unbeaten Portuguese Super League title and Europa League title taking him to Stamford Bridge with the aura of a new generation of star managers, as if to replicate Mourinho's success trajectory.

The Portuguese Super League is definitely a stage where stars can be born, both players and managers.

Although Tang Hong has difficulty communicating with his teammates, he does not need to communicate after the training starts, he just needs to follow the coach's requirements to train.

It's summer preparation and the team is building up energy for the new season, so plenty of cardio training is a staple.

These are off-ball exercises, which are simply to train your body well, so that you can re-energize your body that has been relaxed during the holidays and reach a better level of fitness.

Tang Hong fulfilled the coaches' requirements step by step, and according to his physical fitness, he was definitely at the top of the national team in China, even if he was an adult, but in Braga, his physical fitness had no advantage.

The midfield defenders are taller and stronger than him, and the team is nearly half white, and the other half is black or mixed-race, Tang Hong is very inconspicuous in this group of more than 30 people.

It's only when he sprints that he can make his teammates look at him differently, but football is not exactly a track and field sprint event, so running fast is not necessarily better than playing football.

Eating at the training base at noon, the chef team of the professional club will be equipped with nutritionists, who will arrange the diet of the players very professionally, and it can only be said that Tang Hong is not satisfied with the taste, and he will miss Sun Rou's craftsmanship very much at this time.

The Portuguese and Spaniards have similar schedules and schedules, going to bed late and waking up late, taking a nap from 1 to 3 o'clock at noon, working until 7 or 8 o'clock at night, and eating dinner after half past eight.

After eating at noon, Tang Hong went back to the hotel to take a nap and rest, and before he left in the afternoon, Sun Rou came to ask him what he had eaten at the club.

Tang Hong slept and woke up, came to the club at half past three in the afternoon and started training again.

The intensity of training in the afternoon was greater than in the morning, Tang Hong already felt that something was wrong with his body when he was close to six o'clock, and when it was not dark at half past six, he suddenly came to the sidelines and bent down and vomited after running back and forth continuously!

WOW！

Now those teammates who didn't pay attention to him looked at him one after another!

Assistant coach Vieira ran to ask about him, and it wasn't until Tang Hong gave him a thumbs up that he was okay, and Vieira asked him to end today's training.

When Tang Hong left the training ground, he saw that those teammates looked at him with a lot of amusement.

It seemed to be mocking him for not being able to adapt to such a training intensity.

In fact, although the training intensity is greater than when he used to train, he can definitely cope with it, the key is that his body is still adjusting to the jet lag in the past two days, and the contact diet makes him a little unaccustomed, simply put, it is not adaptable, which caused him to vomit after high-intensity training.

He doesn't have the slightest discouragement or any change in mentality, he just needs to rest and adjust to the new environment.

Head coach Yaltim looked at Tang Hong's back thoughtfully.

It's hard to argue that he has high hopes for Tang Hong, and it would be obvious foolish to bet on a player with no professional experience.

Even when Messi and Ronaldo debuted, no coach dared to pin all their hopes on them.

What Yaltim was thinking about was how to arrange Tang Hong.

Just look at the current first-team squad of more than 30 players, the Portuguese Super League only has 30 rounds, and there will be a local cup in October, and the Europa League is how far and as far as it can go, there will definitely not be many games, and it will not be included in the training schedule.

Counting only the forwards, there are now as many as 6 main players and substitutes in the Braga team!

If Tang Hong is signed, he will be ranked seventh!
