"Jin Ming's mother, I heard that your son plays football in South Korea!"

"Jin Ming's mother, I saw your son on TV yesterday!"

"Lao Jin's family, your son is out of luck."

When Jin Ming's mother came home, all the neighbors were asking about Jin Ming. Seoul FC won the K-League championship, which originally had nothing to do with China. China has never paid attention to South Korea's K-League.

Chinese fans are very fraternal, because the results of Chinese football are not good, so they pay a lot of attention.

But Chinese fans are focused on the Europa League. From the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A and even Ligue 1 and Eredivisie, Chinese fans will definitely not be interested in the leagues of neighboring South Korea and Japan.

The Chinese sports media will definitely not report on their two leagues.

But this year is different.

The K-League regular season champion is Seoul FC, and the K-League overall champion is still Seoul FC. Kim Myung has completely become the main left midfielder of Seoul FC this season, scoring six goals and assisting 12 times throughout the season.

Table xiàn is very stunning.

In the current downturn in Chinese football, China's major media are very happy to have a player like Jin Ming. Therefore, after the end of the Korean K-League, the "Sports Weekly", which has a cooperative relationship with Jin Ming, used three issues, and each issue has a whole page to introduce Jin Ming's table this season.

Sports Weekly is China's No. 1 sports newspaper with great influence.

But compared to TV media, especially CCTV5, it is much worse. Jin Ming even attracted CCTV's sports channel, and CCTV's football programs gave Jin Ming a program.

Jin Ming's fame in China is not comparable to those stars who have been famous for many years, but among the new stars that have appeared in recent years, there is absolutely no one whose popularity can be compared with Jin Ming.

Where Jin Ming lives, most of the neighbors are in the same factory as Jin Ming's parents. Everyone knows each other well.

Therefore, when I saw Jin Ming's mother, I mentioned Jin Ming's matter.

After this season, Jin Ming can be regarded as a small return to his hometown. And what is Jin Ming doing at this time?

Jin Ming is still practicing hard.

The second match of the final of the K-League play-offs ended on December 7, and Jin Ming returned to China on December 15. Because after the victory, there were some other celebrations in the club. Then there are some of the awards presented by the Korean Football Association for this season.

It's cold in the Northeast.

In the Northeast in December, it is usually more than 10 degrees below zero outside, and even at night, it is more than 20 degrees below zero. Of course, as January approaches, the temperature in the Northeast is getting cooler and colder. Slowly, the daytime temperature began to turn to minus 20 degrees Celsius.

But Jin Ming still didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

Although he killed all sides in the Korean league this season, Kim Ming remembered what Lee Chang-so said to Kim Ming at the beginning. He may be a relatively good talent in Chinese football, Korean football and even Asian football, but he is nothing compared to the geniuses of South America and Europe.

Look at Park Joo-young.

Since his debut, he has been a talented striker admired throughout Asian football. The status and role of FC in Seoul are far more than those of geniuses such as Lee Qinglong and Kim Ming. But look at the attitude of the European clubs towards him.

None of the Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A, or La Liga clubs have issued an olive branch to him, only French clubs are interested in him. And it's not a Ligue 1 giant, it's Monaco, which is currently average in Ligue 1.

This shows the attitude of European clubs towards Asian talent. In the eyes of European football, European and South American talents are on the same level, then there are talents from Africa, and finally players from Asia.

Jin Ming's development in Chinese and Korean football has been smooth. But Jin Ming didn't dare to be careless. Because since Wen Dongfang and Jin Ming met, Wen Dongfang has always told Jin Ming that Jin Ming's future is not in Asia, but in European football.

Wen Dongfang's greatest wish is to take Jin Ming to Europe.

Therefore, Jin Ming also thinks so.

I want to go to Europe in the future, I want to go to European football. Since you are going to Europe, you have to compete with European geniuses, South American geniuses, and even now, geniuses from Africa. How can you do it if you don't work hard.

Early birds catches the worm.

If he wants to compete with them, Jin Ming can only pay more sweat. I hope to use my own efforts to bridge the gap between everyone's talents.

…………

"Hello, Mr. Tebel."

"Hello, Mr. Wen. You have a talented player under your command. ”

Everyone is busy.

It should be said that everyone has their own help.

Jin Ming's parents tried every means to give Jin Ming delicious food because Jin Ming went home. Jin Ming is busy, because Jin Ming's goal is to compete with those world geniuses in the future. Wen Dongfang was also busy, because Wen Dongfang was Jin Ming's agent.

After receiving the invitation call from Marco Tebel, Wen Dongfang was very happy.

In fact, Wen Dongfang didn't know who this person was?

But Wen Dongfang has not lived in vain in the past few years. Although because Moon Dongfang is Chinese, it is difficult to enter the interior of Korean football. But with Kim Myeong's excellent performance at Seoul FC, he still has some connections with many agents in Korean football.

Or that Moon Dongfang made some friends with people in Korean football.

From their mouths, Wen Dongfang knew something. That is, Marco Tebel is not a very good scout, compared to those who are very famous, it can be said that he is not a name. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to South Korean football to find treasures.

In the current European football world, in addition to those agents who call for wind and rain, there are also some top scouts, who are also very powerful. Many European football clubs, in addition to being connected with those big-name agents, each club will have its own chief scout to help the team.

Marco Tebel is certainly not that kind of scout.

But he is not a small fame in Korean football. Because he came to South Korea and has been observing Korean football for many years. Park Joo-young joined Monaco just six months ago, and it was the scout who recommended it to Monaco.

And one of his most recent strokes is Li Qinglong.

He recommended Li Qinglong to a Premier League club and successfully attracted the attention of a Premier League club. They have started to keep an eye on Li Qinglong, and if Li Qinglong's appearance is as good as Marco Tebel suggests, they will bring in Li Qinglong next summer.

After collecting these messages, Wen Dongfang was of course quite excited.

Wen Dongfang is self-aware.

Although Jin Ming's reputation in Korean football is growing, after all, Jin Ming is a Chinese player and an Asian player. European football clubs will certainly not pay too much attention to Jin Ming. So Wen Dongfang never thought that Jin Ming would join the wealthy directly.

Asian football is not without precedent for young players to join the big clubs directly, but there is no successful player.

Arsenal once introduced Junichi Inamoto, Manchester United introduced Dong Fangzhuo, these are all living examples. Where is it so easy for a wealthy family to gain a foothold. With Jin Ming's current strength, the best way is to start with a small club.

So a scout like Marco Tebel is a good one.

"Thank you."

"Mr. Wen, I'll just say it directly. I've introduced your players to quite a few clubs, but almost no response has been received. ”

Marco said as he looked at Wen Dongfang's expression.

But Wen Dongfang's face didn't change at all, he just listened quietly. It's not that Wen Dongfang is calm, but that Wen Dongfang understands what Marco said. What are the Chinese players lacking the most?

It's just that there are no senior players who have really established themselves in European football.

Let's not talk about Asia as a whole, but let's talk about a few countries in East Asia. The most successful Korean football in Europe was Cha Beom-geun that year. Cha Van Gen's success in the Bundesliga and in European football is difficult to surpass by any other Asian player. After Cha Bem-geun's great success, many players from South Korean football have come to European football one after another. Although there are ups and downs, there are successes and failures. So far, the huge success of Park Ji-sung and the success of some other powerful Korean players have given European clubs a lot of confidence.

South Korean players can be regarded as good and cheap. It is precisely because of the pioneering of these predecessors that it is much easier for Korean players to travel to Europe now.

Look at the Japanese players.

In the 90s of the last century, Japanese players began to travel to Europe with the sponsorship of Japanese companies, and the most successful was Hidetoshi Nakata. Then there are Celtic's Shunsuke Nakamura and others, whose success has left a big impression on European football. Batch after batch of Japanese players have established themselves in European football.

It also brought great convenience to later Japanese players to travel to Europe.

And China lacks such players.

If anything, only Sun Jihai is barely successful. But Sun Jihai's success is far less than the achievements of people such as Nakata Hideshou, Park Ji-sung, and Nakamura Shunsuke. One Sun Jihai is clearly unable to change the perception of Chinese players in European football.

This has led European football to question the quality of Chinese players.

Wen Dongfang knew this, so Wen Dongfang didn't have any expression.

"So I thought of a club and I think they would definitely be interested in Jinming."

"Which club?"

"Schalke 04."

"Schalke in the Bundesliga?"

"Yes."

Although Wen Dongfang still didn't have much change in his expression, he was still very surprised in his heart. Obviously, many clubs have no reaction to Jin Ming, why would this person in front of him say that Schalke 04 is interested in Jin Ming.

Therefore, Wen Dongfang squinted his eyes and asked, "Why?" ”
