In fact, in the final analysis, this matter is the conflict between the interests of the national team and the interests of the club, and the conflict between the training time of the national team and the game time of the club, which makes Zhang Yuning, who is caught in it, very uncomfortable.

From another point of view, since our overseas players will encounter this kind of thing, will our neighbors Japan, South Korea, and even other European countries encounter this kind of thing?

Japan's training camp is unified on the 27th, which is later than China's 25th. This time is almost the same as in most major European countries, which is not difficult to explain why Japanese and Korean players rarely complain about the conflict between club games and national team training camps.

Although South Korea's training camp is on the 21st, which is earlier than China's 25th, the Korean Football Association has set the return time for European players to be on the 28th, which also avoids the conflict between the national team training time and the club game time for Korean European players to a large extent.

However, the training time of the Chinese national team is a bit rigid, and the training time is often earlier than the time of the club game of players in Europe, take the Zhang Yuning incident as an example, the national team training time is the 25th, the game of Werder Bremen is the 26th, and the time of the World Preliminary Tournament is the 31st.

This made Zhang Yuning very embarrassed, returning to China in time, that would offend the club; Staying in Bremen and offending Marcelo Lippi is really incompatible.

Even if Zhang Yuning has not been selected for three consecutive games (one German Cup and two league games), although he still has illusions about being in the league squad.

Strictly speaking, it is reasonable for Bremen to temporarily leave Zhang Yuning at this time, and FIFA clearly states in the regulations that for national A-level competitions, players must return to the team at least 4 days before the match, and if the game is played on another continent, players are required to return to the team at least 5 days before the game (except for friendly matches).

According to the regulations, Zhang Yuning's latest return to the team should be August 28, which is 4 days before the game, so Bremen is not obliged to let Zhang Yuning return to China in advance to prepare for the game in accordance with FIFA regulations, even if Zhang Yuning is not on the game list.

Therefore, even if Lippi stipulates that all national football players will be concentrated on the 25th, Zhang Yuning will not be able to return to China in advance if he does not get permission from the club.

In line with international standards?

Professionalization of football?

Hehe, in the author's eyes, the Chinese Football Association has never refused to be in line with international standards, and it has never been professional.

Not to mention the rest, let's just say that for the sake of the national team training, with the big hat of national interests, how many players in Europe have been harmed, making them give up their future and sacrifice their interests in the development of European football.

Former international player and current Shanghai Xiapg assistant coach Xie Rijun even gave up the hard-won opportunity to play in the Bundesliga in order to enter the national team and participate in the World Cup.

Back then, Mi Lu called Xie Rijun and asked him to return to China to prepare for the top 10 matches, and he was so foolish on the phone: "If we rush out, we will definitely play the World Cup." ”

That's when Shejri has scored 14 goals in the Bundesliga, Artur Vichniarek has scored 13 goals, especially in the last six rounds of four goals, and due to the eye-catching performance, the Bundesliga team Kaiserslautern threw an olive branch to Xie Shiren with an offer of 3.5 million euros.

But when Xie Junjun said that he was going to play the top 10 for four months, Kaiserslautern gave up the negotiations, "If you don't fight for four months, why should I buy you?" ”

In the end, Xie Shiren resolutely returned to China to fight, and since then he has lost the opportunity to compete in the Bundesliga.

The bad thing is that in the squad for the South Korea-Japan World Cup in 02, Xie Shiren disappeared from this squad, which is also the biggest regret of the former international player's life.

Of course, other players in Europe are no better, there are bureaucratic amateur football associations, good at standing on moral points to harm European players, no wonder Chinese football is still standing still.

It seems that due to "communication problems" caused by "misunderstandings", Zhang Yuning was innocently defeated by the Chinese national football team, which is preparing for the battle between China and Ukraine in the top 12.

The day after the incident broke out, Zhang Yuning's Bremen faced the giant Bayern Munich in the first home game of the new season in the Bundesliga.

Unfortunately, Zhang Yuning did not make the Bremen squad.

For a world-class coach like Lippi, it is really not news that Zhang Yuning was abandoned because he failed to return to China on time to participate in the national football training camp as he requested.

However, if Zhang Yuning is not a marginal candidate between the main force and the substitute in the national football team, but an absolutely indispensable backbone, then, no matter how serious the "communication problem" is, Lippi will not easily abandon him.

If it is replaced by Zhang Zhetian, who has not withdrawn from the national team, and his RB Leipzig will not play until Sunday afternoon, and it is impossible to return to China on the 25th to report, then, will Lippi refuse his selection?

No, Lippi will agree to delay his return to China, and it would be a fool to turn away a world-class goalkeeper, so, in the end, it still depends on the quality.

Bremen's introduction of Zhang Yuning is more out of consideration for entering the Chinese market, but the Bundesliga is to speak with strength, Zhang Yuning is obviously reluctant to play in the first team in Bremen, and there is news that the club will let him play in the youth team to play in the German C.

Then why did you Zhang Yuning leave the Eredivisie and go to the Bundesliga?

Could it be that the Chinese players surnamed Zhang all have the aura of salesmen?

In the past, there was Zhang Xiyu selling cars, and now there is Zhang Yuning, uh, I don't know what Bremen can sell.

It's just that since Zhang Zhetian angrily scolded the Football Association, quit the national football team, and became a German, Zhang Yuning, who has no stable position in Bremen and the national football team, is indeed the only Chinese player in the top five European leagues.

The stars of other countries playing in the five major leagues are all pillars of their respective national football teams, and major tournaments will definitely be recalled to participate.

Zhang Yuning is an exception, he went to play in the Eredivisie at the age of 18 in the upper reaches of the European second division, and is a newcomer who has grown up in the European arena, representing Vitesse in the Eredivisie and scoring goals.

Two years later, he moved to West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League, where he was loaned to Bremen in the Bundesliga due to a labor permit.

Compared with the local international players, Zhang Yuning's basic conditions for integrating into the European league are better, but he is too young, and he does not have a good agent, so it is difficult to provoke the national football team in a short period of time.

Now Zhang Yuning is not only unable to play the main team in Bremen, but it is also difficult to even enter the squad; As for the national football team, no one thinks that Lippi's abandonment of him will have a substantial impact on the internationals' participation in the round of 12. This makes Zhang Yuning's situation quite embarrassing, but this embarrassing pot should not be carried by this young man who has just turned 20 years old, it reflects the crisis of the broken talent chain of the entire Chinese football industry.
