Chapter 117: Xu Xin returns to China

"Is it an old friend's call? Over there in Madrid? ”

After putting down the phone, Qin Shou was a little dazed, as if he remembered memories of the past, and his expression was complicated. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Jennifer came over with a plate of peeled apples, sat down beside him with a smile, and asked casually.

Qin Shou nodded: "It's Godin's." ”

In fact, not only Godin, in the two days when Arsenal was about to leave for Madrid, Gabi, Carrasco, Juanfran and other old friends called over, and even Atletico Madrid coach Simeone was no exception, saying that after the game, the big guys want to find a place to get together, after all, although they don't play in the same club anymore, they are also old friends who have a deep friendship, and they have been fighting side by side for so long, and when they meet again, they are "enemies" on the field, and off the field, this friendship should not be stranded.

Qin Shou naturally smiled and nodded in agreement, but after hanging up the phone, he couldn't stop sighing softly.

If it were possible, he really didn't want to go back to Madrid, to be precise, he didn't want to set foot on the Stadio CalderΓ³n as an opponent, where he made a name for himself, where he really became a top superstar, where he was naturally full of feelings and memories, where the fans were enthusiastic and supportive, he was afraid to come back there again, not knowing how to face the fans who loved him.

But this day is coming sooner or later, the European football circle is so big, sooner or later there will be a time to meet again, not to mention that there is a group of idiots in UEFA who are not too big to be a big deal in secret, hoping to use such a gimmick to attract the attention of fans.

When he learned that one-eighth of the Champions League opponent was Atletico Madrid, Qin Shou was really powerless to complain, when he first joined Atletico Madrid, he encountered Arsenal in the quarterfinals, and in the Champions League the following year, he met Arsenal. Unlike before, this time, his Atletico Madrid pushed Arsenal into the abyss of elimination.

So Qin Shou was almost speechless, UEFA seems to be addicted to the game of Atletico Madrid and Arsenal singing together, how long has it been, the two teams have met again, the fans are not bored of watching it, the players of the two teams are estimated to be tired, it can only be said that UEFA is really disgusting.

Disgusting is disgusting, but it is a foregone conclusion and there is no way to change it, Qin Shou can only accept it silently, and hopes that when the time comes, Calderon's fans will not boo him too much.

"Are you worried that the Atletico fans will not welcome you, or even boo you during the game?"

Jennifer picked up a piece of apple from her plate and fed it to Qin Shou's mouth.

"The boos and the scolding were just small things, but I felt very sorry for them when I thought that they were so supportive of me and supported me before, and I still didn't stay in Madrid...... And Godin, who used to fight side by side with them, but now they have to fight with them on the field, which feels weird......"

"That's football. It is difficult for a player to stay in a team all the time, and if you can't give a big enough stage, then the departure of the player is inevitable. Qin, you haven't seen through it yet. ”

Qin Shou smiled bitterly, the truth is such a truth, he can understand it, but understanding is one thing, in fact it is another, anyway, he feels a little uncomfortable.

"Besides, Atletico Madrid fans may not have a 'hate' mentality towards you, after all, it was not you who took the initiative to leave, think about it from another angle, in fact, you have done enough for Atletico Madrid, without you, it is likely that they may not be able to rise so quickly...... I think there will be a lot of fans who will welcome you back. ”

Jennifer said very reasonably, the reason why Qin Shou decided to transfer was because of the conflict with the club's senior management, and it was not that he took the initiative to seek a transfer, but that he fought back after encountering "betrayal", and his transfer also brought a huge financial benefit to the club, at this point, Qin Shou did not have much psychological burden.

It's just that when he thinks of the fans and his former teammates, he still looks a little depressed.

"I hope so."

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Qin Shou did not travel to Madrid with the team, he asked Arsene Wenger and the coaching staff to take a leave of absence and arrived in Madrid a day early.

Before this, he received a call from Xu Xin, because Xu Xin's return ticket was the day before the match between Arsenal and Atletico Madrid, if he went to Madrid with the team, then he would not be able to catch up with Xu Xin's "casual dinner", so after thinking about it, he came to Madrid alone.

Qin Shou is still very concerned about Xu Xin, the younger brother of his compatriots, although he has left Atletico Madrid, but the contact with Xu Xin has never been interrupted, and Xu Xin will call from time to time to ask his big brother some questions.

"I'm sorry, Brother Qin Shou, I'm really sorry to ask you to come to Madrid in a hurry."

In a small Chinese restaurant in Madrid, Qin Shou met Xu Xin and Ma Xiaojing, a female reporter with a ponytail. However, Ma Xiaojing, who has always been lively and generous, and the elf and eccentric Ma Xiaojing's face was full of unhappiness at the moment, Qin Shou knew why, just smiled and nodded to her, and sat down.

It is said to be a "casual meal", but it is actually very simple, and there are very few people who participate in the dinner, including Xu Xin, who invited guests, plus Qin Shou and Ma Xiaojing, there are only three people in total.

Xu Xin has been in Madrid for so long, although he has also made a lot of friends, but the closest relationship with him is Qin Shou and Ma Xiaojing.

Before the food came up, Qin Shou directly raised his doubts: "Why did you suddenly decide to return to China for development?" ”

Xu Xin lowered his head silently, Ma Xiaojing's angry eyes that hated iron and steel turned around his body, and then he said mockingly: "What else?" If you feel that you can't make a name for yourself, and you don't have the ability or confidence, you can only go back to China to eat! ”

Qin Shou frowned, Ma Xiaojing was obviously angry, and after saying this, he twisted his face to the side and didn't speak. Xu Xin, on the other hand, lowered his head and was silent.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was very tense and heavy.

Qin Shou looked at Xu Xin quietly, waiting for him to speak.

After a long time, Xu Xin raised his head, probably thinking of the wording, with guilt and loss on his face, and sighed heavily.

"Actually, Brother Qin Shou, after you transferred away from Atletico Madrid, someone came to contact me and the club, all of which are domestic teams."

"At the beginning I refused, although I couldn't get into the first team for the time being, but in the reserve team, I can learn a lot and improve, and I gradually got used to the football environment here, but ......"

With Xu Xin's story, Qin Shou finally understood the reason why Xu Xin suddenly decided to return to China.

To be honest, in Qin Shou's opinion, Xu Xin's football talent is not very high, and being able to get to where he is today step by step, and even gain a firm foothold in the reserve team, is inseparable from his own persistence and hard work, but that's all, he wants to go further, but it is extremely difficult.

The football environment in Europe is indeed very different from that in China, and it is too difficult to get ahead in European football, especially for young Chinese players, the children who play football here have received systematic training since they were young and are more adapted to the football system here, while the Chinese children are different, even if they all go abroad for trial training in the end, but they lose at the starting line, and limited by the different football environment and different concepts from childhood, such a gap will only get bigger and bigger.

The gap is gradually widened is one reason, and another point is that there are too many talented and talented people who play football in Europe, and even they may not be able to make their mark in the professional arena, as for Xu Xin, it is even more difficult.

It's as if now, although he is in the reserves, but the day of his emergence is far away, and a few of his teammates, such as Correa, who joined him in the reserves, have already entered the first team, and he is still standing still.

It's false to say that he doesn't envy, but Xu Xin has no choice, he has worked hard enough, but his teammates around him are also working hard, not inferior to him at all, he has never been able to get a chance in the professional league, so he has to give in to reality.

A Chinese family wants to provide a professional player out, not a rich and noble family, it is actually very difficult, Xu Xin's family conditions are not bad, but in order to play football for him, the family has been stretched, and now he is also in his twenties, and he has been unable to obtain a professional player's contract, so it is bound to continue to increase the burden on the family, he can no longer bear such days, wants to play, wants to really play football, and make money, reduce the burden on the family.

"I also want to really become a professional player, I want to play, and I have a ...... at home" Xu Xin became more and more excited the more he said, and the unwilling emotion appeared on his face, but more of it was depressed, "I'm really sorry, Brother Qin Shou, I ...... disappointed your expectations."

Qin Shou's expression was a little regretful, and at the same time, there was helplessness. This is the reality, it is really too difficult for Chinese children to play football and make a name for themselves in Europe, he Qin Shou is just lucky, if it weren't for Henry's care for him, would he be able to rise so quickly? Obviously not.

In this world, not everyone can be smooth sailing, even if it is himself, hasn't he encountered a lot of ups and downs?

"You don't have to say I'm sorry, Xiao Xu, everyone has their own hardships, your choice is not wrong, what is playing football for, either fame or fortune, since there is no way to be famous abroad, then it is understandable to go back to China to play football...... That's right," Qin Shou paused, and then asked, "Xiaoxin, have you decided which team to go to?" ”

"It's confirmed, it's Guangzhou Evergrande."

Qin Shou nodded: "It's not bad, Boss Xu is an ambitious person, Evergrande's strength in China and even in Asia is second to none and very competitive." ”

"Work hard, Shin-chan."

Qin Shou patted Xu Xin on the shoulder, Xu Xin nodded, while Ma Xiaojing was still silent and did not speak.
