Starting with playing defensive midfield for Evergrande

Chapter 9 Zhang Linpeng VS Su Hao? Starting with the strongest? (Please add to your favorites and follow along!)

"Brother Zhi, do you think the old man really has his eye on that 16-year-old kid, or is he really just a mascot the boss recruited to promote the football academy, as some people online are saying?"

On the way to the training ground.

Qin Sheng, who was usually very talkative, suddenly asked Zheng Zhi a question.

As soon as Qin Sheng said this, Zhang Linpeng and Rong Hao both looked at Zheng Zhi with curiosity.

It's no wonder these three are gossipy, given that Su Hao's resume is indeed too fantastical.

At 15, he was still a goalkeeper at Guangzhou No. 13 Middle School. A year later, he managed to jump three levels through the football academy and make it to the first team of Evergrande.

Keep in mind that at 16 years old, even Zhang Linpeng, currently Evergrande's youngest and most talented defender, is still practicing shuttle runs at the Genbao Football Base.

"Stop talking nonsense. Don't you even use your brain? If it's really the mascot that the internet is talking about, at most it's something the club does. Would Lippi really get involved?"

"Hiss! That's true. With the old man's personality, I think if he doesn't like someone, no matter how much money you give him, he won't do these things!"

"Yeah! I think so too. I reckon that kid must have some skills. At the very least, his physique is definitely the most formidable one in our Evergrande right now!"

"Hey! Haozi, are you saying we don't take Zhang Mos seriously? Haha, shall we teach that kid a lesson later, and show him the true level of our first team?"

The group walked along, chatting and laughing.

"boom!!!"

"boom!!!"

"boom!!!!"

Suddenly!

As the group approached the training ground...

The series of loud explosions interrupted their laughter and conversation!
Su Hao on the training field was puzzled.

Although his passing stat has been improved, his other attributes are still completely unattractive.

He rushed to the training field eager to try out his passing skills, but when he got there, he realized he was all alone. How could he possibly pass the ball?

So all he could do was practice long-range shots in front of the goal.

Previously in the reserve team or football academy, both coaches and teammates said that his shooting power was very strong.

But just how fierce is "very fierce"?
In short, with this panel full of question marks, Su Hao really didn't know what his current level was.

Of course, even if he didn't know, Su Hao was still quite certain that his shooting power alone should be at least among the top in the Chinese Super League and China League One.

And so, Su Hao began practicing long-range shooting one after another.

They took ten shots, and with no goalkeeper, they scored about nine.

Su Hao felt that this result was so-so.

However, what he didn't know was that his ten long-range shots, all of which were over thirty meters, had left Zheng Zhi and others, who were discussing on the road whether Su Hao was the team's mascot, completely dumbfounded.

"Brother Zhi... I... I fucking take back what I just said!"

Qin Sheng, who had been staring intently at Su Hao's explosive shot from the moment the explosion occurred, spoke from the training ground.

Su Hao didn't know what level his shooting was at.

However, Qin Sheng, who had spent so many years playing in the Chinese Super League, knew very well that...

It has to be said that Su Hao's physique and build are indeed astonishing. Just those few shots he just took, even without a goalkeeper, would be something that very few people in the Chinese Super League could do.

That kind of power and accuracy
Qin Sheng said angrily to Zheng Zhi.

Zheng Zhi, standing to the side, was still in shock.

After all, he had played in the English Premier League and the Scottish Premier League, so he could definitely tell whether a player was playing well or not.

Just like those ten kicks.

Zheng Zhi can vouch for the whole team!
Yes, in the entire Evergrande team, only Conca surpasses Su Hao in accuracy. As for power?

Su Hao is absolutely the strongest.

16 years old!

No wonder the old man took a liking to him and promoted him directly to the first team.

Just from those ten long-range shooting practice sessions, this kid is definitely qualified to join the first team!
On the training field, it was Qin Sheng's shout that made Su Hao notice that several more people had suddenly appeared on the sidelines.

Turning my head
Dig!

Su Hao, who was a loyal Evergrande fan in his previous life, immediately recognized the people in front of him.

Without any delay, Su Hao immediately ran towards Zheng Zhi and the others on the sidelines with a smile.

"Hello, Captain!"

Facing that future, the former captain of both Guangzhou Evergrande and the Chinese national team cried during the darkest moment of the national team's history, saying he had let down Chinese fans.

Su Hao greeted Zheng Zhi very respectfully.

Not only Zheng Zhi, but Su Hao also clearly called out the names of the other guys, adding the word "brother" to each of them.

"Hello, Brother Qin!"

"Hello, Brother Linpeng!"

Well, having lived two lives, Su Hao knew very well that China was a society based purely on personal connections. Being able to build good relationships with the current double captain and Evergrande's key players would only bring benefits and no harm.

"Xiao Hao! Don't be so formal. Brother Gang called me. Once you're here, make yourself at home. Today is your official signing day. I've already talked to the team, and we'll all have dinner together tonight to welcome you back!"

He's only 16 years old, but his abilities and emotional intelligence are beyond what one would expect for his age.

Zheng Zhi also had a sudden idea to gather the whole team together.

"Huh? Brother Zhi, when are you going to tell me?"

As soon as Zheng Zhi finished inviting Su Hao, Qin Sheng, who hadn't quite caught on, immediately asked Zheng Zhi, but Zheng Zhi's glare silenced him.

"Thank you, Captain. Shall we go now?"

"No, it's still early. Rong Hao, go tell the others that Lin Peng, Qin Sheng, and the rest of us should practice with Xiao Hao some more. Anyway, it will be a while before everyone gets together."

Zheng Zhi has already seen his long-range shooting ability, but frankly, he really wants to learn more about the other aspects.

"Okay! Brother Zhi, should we call Conca and Muriqui? If we do, we'll have to call the translators too!"

"Go ahead and shout! How can we get the whole team together without these guys?"

"Understood, Zhi-ge!"

In just a few words.

Putting everything else aside, at least Su Hao now knows Zheng Zhi's current status at Evergrande.

No wonder that even when Evergrande stopped paying salaries for so long, Zheng Zhi was still able to keep a group of young players going all out for that last bit of red.

"Linpeng! You guard Xiaohao, I'll go to the goal. Xiaohao, just do the same long-range shots as before, but there's no distance limit. Shoot whenever you have the chance!"

"Okay Captain!"

"Okay, Brother Zhi!"

As soon as Zheng Zhi finished speaking, Su Hao and Zhang Linpeng both nodded in agreement.

For Su Hao, he really wanted to know if his current locked-in 18-year-old stats were enough to put him to the test against Zhang Linpeng, the top full-back in the Chinese Super League, who was known as Zhang Mos.

Zhang Linpeng naturally wanted to test Su Hao, whose appearance was definitely the best in the team, to see just how capable he really was!
