Chapter 14: Jeffrey

Outside Luton's training ground was a row of two-storey red residential houses, and the 9 a.m. sun slanted to the south of the houses, creating a long shadow in the north.

Jeffrey squatted in the corner of the wall outside the entrance to the training base, it was almost July, and the morning sun was very ultraviolet, and Jeffrey, who came from the warm lowland Netherlands, could not stand the strong ultraviolet rays of the sun on the British island, so he had to crouch in the shadow of the wall.

Jeffrey is still wearing a Chelsea training kit, a Chelsea Academy graduate who came to England from the Netherlands, which was not easy for the young Jeffrey.

Winning the FA Youth Cup as the team's main player is the most memorable honor of Jeffrey over the years, after being promoted by Gao Bo and playing from the midfield position to the central defender, Jeffrey's performance has also gotten better and better, and gradually settled in the position of the main central defender of the Under-18s. And when he won the FA Youth Cup, the young Jeffrey thought his spring was coming and he was likely to get the attention of the first-team coach and then break into the first team.

Although Jeffrey is completely unable to compete with the first-team John Terry and other central defenders, this will at least give him a higher platform, and in the future, he will either be loaned out for training or transferred directly, which will give him more options.

However, at this time, Coach Gao Bo was suddenly sacked, and with Chelsea's penalty loss to Manchester United in the European final, firefighting coach Grant was also sacked, and now Chelsea is in a chaotic period, the team's top management is in a period of personnel turmoil, and the youth director was temporarily transferred to the first team at this time, resulting in the current Chelsea Academy is also in chaos.

And it was against this backdrop that Jeffrey beat George the training ground - that is, George, whose father is a director of Chelsea.

Geoffrey's behaviour was applauded by the Chelsea Under-18 players, but he also paid the price when he was sacked by Chelsea....

After being sacked, Jeffrey was a little overwhelmed by what to do, he joined the Chelsea Academy at the age of 14, what else could he do but play at Chelsea?

Go back to the Netherlands?

Maybe going back to the Netherlands to grow roses is an option, but Jeffrey really doesn't want to be reconciled, he has been training professionally in football since he was a child, and he really doesn't know what to do other than playing football - even if his father is a good gardener, but that doesn't mean that Jeffrey can grow roses well.

Jeffrey, who did not have any connections in England, naturally thought of the person he trusted the most, promoted him, appreciated him and encouraged his head coach Gao Bo.

Jeffrey learned that Gao Bo had taken over a team in the second division, so the expelled Jeffrey had no choice but to join his mentor.

Gao Bo hurriedly walked out of the door of the training base, and at a glance he saw Jeffrey squatting in the corner in a blue training uniform.

Jeffrey is a centre-back he promoted when he was in charge of Chelsea's Under-18s, and although he is only 185 centimetres tall now, the eighteen-year-old has already shown a maturity that is different from his peers, and has been very consistent in the centre-back position, although this height is not tall in the centre-back position, but in fact it is not short. And he is physically strong, especially the bounce is very good, and when it comes to defending the high ball, Jeffrey never disappoints Gao Bo!

In fact, Gao Bo didn't want to poach his old players from the Chelsea period, but he was humiliated and swept away, which made Gao Bo full of anger towards Chelsea, so he didn't really want to deal with his former club - he wanted to get back the humiliation he suffered on the field!

"Jeffrey!"

Jeffrey looked up, and at a glance he saw Gao Bo, who was as tall as him, walking out of the doorway, revealing his trademark smile.

Jeffrey's eyes turned red all at once. For Jeffrey, who spent his adolescence in the academy, it was difficult for the simple-minded young man to adapt to his first taste of human warmth, and it was inevitable that he would be emotional after seeing the coach he knew and trusted.

Gao Bo stepped forward, took Jeffrey into his arms, patted him on the back, and then looked at Jeffrey with an agitated expression.

"I was just going to find you, Jeffrey! My team is missing a centre-back! ”

Gao Bo said straight to the point.

Jeffrey's eyes reddened: "I was fired by them, coach..."

Gao Bo's expression froze, and then his expression was gloomy: "Is that fat man the ghost?" ”

Jeffrey was a little embarrassed: "I was the one who beat his son.... It's the guy named George..."

Gao Bo was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and he patted Jeffrey on the shoulder: "Good beating!! ”

Jeffrey, who had been in a low mood for the past two days, also laughed.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the training ground!" Gao Bo grabbed Jeffrey's shoulder and walked into the training base.

"Uncle Magis, see clearly, this is our new centre-back." Gao Bo turned his head to the doorman and said. "He's going to be a world-class centre-back!!"

In fact, Jeffrey's future development at Chelsea is not good, but Gobo will not shy away from his praise for the player. Especially for young players, the manager's praise is a great source of confidence.

Hearing this, Jeffrey's confidence really increased, he was already full of trust in Gao Bo, how could Gao Bo not let his self-confidence burst when he praised him so much.

"You won't be in the second division for long, the Jeffrey top league is your stage!" Gao Bo encouraged Jeffrey.

"I just want to follow you, Coach!" Jeffrey, who was instigated by Gao Bo's words in a few words, said. For Jeffrey in this matter, he is willing to do whatever Gao Bo asks him to do.

"Then let's go to the top league together!" Gao Bo touched the back of Jeffrey's head, "Three years!" We were promoted to the Premier League in three years! ”

Gao Bo revealed his ambitions in front of others for the first time!

Jeffrey is now Gao Bo's brainless fan, and naturally he believes everything Gao Bo says.

He nodded vigorously: "I'm going to have to show that bastard at Chelsea that I'm good!! ”

Gao Bohaha laughed: "Then let's go back to the Premier League together and beat Chelsea's ass!" ”

The master and apprentice laughed together.

Gao Bo then took Jeffrey to the training ground and introduced him to the rest of Luton's players.

Coming from a member of Chelsea's Under-18s, the Luton Town players will not be suspicious of Jeffrey's quality either.

Looking at his players, Gao Bo is now proud.

Upgrade!!

Lao Tzu will definitely be able to upgrade this season!
