Chapter 16: The first encounter with De Bruyne

Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

At the end of June, the day of the team's training camp is getting closer and closer.

Werder Bremen's training camp for the new season will begin on July 3, and the players will have to travel from all over the world to assemble in the team.

The first one to arrive must be Lin Quan himself, after all, he has been training alone in the base for more than a month.

Through this period of training, he has fully adapted to the various abilities of the peak Messi.

In the future, if you use Boss Mei's various stunts, it won't be so jerky.

Not only that, but his height has increased by one centimeter to 173 centimeters.

The weight has also increased from 65 kg to 67 kg.

The increase in height and weight made his originally slightly thin body a little stronger.

The ability to fight physically has also improved, and the ability to carry the ball has become stronger.

Swish!

With a crisp sound, the ball made a wonderful arc, high over the wall, and then plummeted into the goal from the top left corner of the goal.

On this day, he arrived at the training ground early, only to find that someone had arrived earlier than him.

This is a young player who is about 1.8 meters tall and has blonde hair.

The other party didn't notice Lin Quan's arrival, and was still shooting with his head down.

Lin Quan took a look on the sidelines and found that the opponent was practicing a free kick.

However, it is not so much that he is practicing, but that he is venting his anger.

That kick was as if the football had an enmity with him.

However, with such a strong kick, the kicked ball can also fly accurately from the dead corner of the goal into the goal frame.

I have to say, this guy's footwork is outstanding.

Seeing this, he had already guessed the identity of this person.

This should be a player on loan from Chelsea – Kevin De Bruyne.

Bang Bang Bang!

Lin Quan applauded the other party's wonderful footwork.

Hearing the applause, De Bruyne stopped and looked back at him.

Seeing that the other party was wearing the same team uniform as himself, he nodded to Lin Quan and said hello.

After saying hello, he continued to train with his head down, and he didn't mean to greet Lin Quan.

Lin Quan knew that De Bruyne was a taciturn and introverted player, so he didn't pay much attention to his behavior.

If he had seen him and greeted him enthusiastically, he would have wondered if something was wrong with De Bruyne!

He didn't mean to disturb De Bruyne's training, so he went to the equipment room to take out the training equipment, re-selected a field and set up the training facilities, and began to practice alone.

After practicing for about half an hour, Lin Quan noticed as if someone was watching him.

So he glanced to the sidelines and found that De Bruyne didn't know when he had stopped training and was standing on the sidelines watching himself practice.

Seeing Lin Quan looking at him, De Bruyne blushed and hurriedly turned his head.

He had a feeling that he was being found out for doing something bad, and he was actually a little embarrassed.

"Something?"

Seeing that this guy actually blushed, Lin Quan couldn't help but laugh a little.

I've always heard people say that Tintin is very shy, but I didn't expect to be shy to this extent.

"Ahem, no, nothing!"

De Bruyne said a little embarrassed, as if he had summoned great courage, and it was very difficult to say.

It's not easy to get him to say eight words!

Seeing that the other party had nothing to say, Lin Quan simply ignored him and continued to train.

However, when he continued to train, De Bruyne still stood on the sidelines and did not leave.

So, Lin Quan had to stop again and repeat the question just now:

"Are you sure it's okay?"

De Bruyne can't say it's okay, after all, if it's really okay, then he won't stand here and not leave.

"Hello, my name is Kevin De Bruyne, nice to meet you, are you practicing your breakthrough?"

Lin Quan walked over, stretched out his hand, and shook De Bruyne's hand in a friendly manner.

"Hello, my name is Lin Quan, as you can see, I am indeed practicing breakthrough techniques, how about it, are you interested in practicing together?"

De Bruyne plays in a frontcourt position, which requires a certain amount of dribbling and passing skills, which will help them to get rid of defenders and find more suitable routes for the ball.

The 21-year-old De Bruyne is not as delicate and skilful as he would have been, and his style of play is free, unrestrained and a bit technically rough, which is not very much in line with Chelsea's requirements.

So, unable to find a place at Chelsea, he was forced to leave the team on loan and came to the Bundesliga to train.

The marketing of the Bundesliga teams, especially the average team, is not very good, and the club's income is not high.

Although it has the top ball market in Europe, it is far inferior to the Premier League and La Liga in terms of commercial development.

In order to control costs, the salary expenditure of middle and lower teams in the Bundesliga is generally not high, and the recruitment is relatively conservative.

This gives young players the opportunity to find their place here.

For Kevin De Bruyne, playing in the Bundesliga is certainly better than staying on the bench at Chelsea.

After the pain of joining a wealthy club and being banished by a wealthy club, De Bruyne became increasingly dissatisfied with his own strength.

He is desperate to improve his strength as soon as possible and prove his ability on the field as soon as possible.

So that the bastards at Chelsea can see that it's not that he can't do it, it's that Chelsea won't give him a chance.

Therefore, in the face of Lin Quan's invitation, he gladly accepted.

Lin Quan didn't know what De Bruyne was thinking, and he invited the other party to train together just because he wanted to find a sparring partner so that he could further familiarize himself with Messi's various breakthrough skills in the actual confrontation.

So the two hit it off and practiced in full swing.

"Will you come first or will I come first?"

Lin Quan held the ball, looked at De Bruyne with a smile, and said to him.

De Bruyne saw that the football was at Lin Quan's feet, so he lowered his center of gravity slightly, blocked in front of the core area at the top of the arc of the penalty area, and put on a defensive posture.

De Bruyne's defensive ability is not particularly good, but he still knows the basics of defense.

However, when defenders face attackers one-on-one, they are in a passive position, and the attackers have at least two breakout lines to choose from.

As a result, they have no choice but to block the most threatening line and force the other side to go to the other side.

De Bruyne opted to block the inside and ceded the outside, which is the wing, to Lin Quan, which is the choice of most defenders when facing a wide break.

De Bruyne's idea was to let Lin Quan's opportunity to overtake on the wing, but when the opponent broke through vertically, the ball could not pass and disrupt his rhythm and pace with his physical confrontation, allowing him to lose the ball.

This strategy is fine, but the problem is that Lin Quan will not obediently cooperate with him.

He was seen moving with the ball vertically, watching De Bruyne's footsteps.

De Bruyne's center of gravity has always been on the back foot, and he is sideways ready to chase back.

Suddenly, Lin Quan leaned forward and made a move to move forward, De Bruyne saw that the opponent's center of gravity had changed, and he immediately took a step back.

As a result, Lin Quan suddenly pulled the ball to the right side, and a simple body swing completed the breakthrough against De Bruyne.

De Bruyne froze in place, this way of passing is too simple, as simple as eating and drinking.

But the question is, how did the other party have such a simple method, but he was passed like a wooden stake?
