Chapter 3 Faith

Major European leagues have ended and the players have also ushered in a rare holiday, but this does not include players without contracts.

During holidays, players who already have contracts. If players who do not want to lose their jobs and leave the stadium, they will take advantage of this holiday to go to various clubs for trial training.

Football has always been a valuation of strength, and people without strength will only be eliminated. So when Li Shou followed Catalanode to the Monaco training base, the training ground was not deserted, and it could even be said to be quite lively.

"Little guy, you're lucky," Catalano said, pointing to a silver-haired old man on the sidelines.

Claudio Ranieri, the Italian coach who has just taken office this season, is standing on the sidelines to observe the players on the training ground.

The situation in Monaco is a bit awkward. Ranieri's favorite players are unwilling to come, and those who are willing to come are not favored. And everyone knows that Monaco has changed to a very rich boss.

But is the Monaco boss a fool?

If a strong star is willing to come, the Russian oligarch is willing to pay, but no matter what kind of cat or dog dares to offer high prices, the Russian oligarch will naturally not be the sucker.

In this case, Ranieri could only focus on the future and bought many young players, including Argentine genius winger Lucas Ocampos.

So far, Monaco has invested nearly 20 million euros in the transfer market this summer, of which Argentine geniuses account for more than half.

This South American genius has the reputation of "Argentina's C Ronaldo". His breakthrough on the wing was quite sharp. He himself regarded C Ronaldo as his idol, rather than Messi, who competed with C Ronaldo.

In addition to introducing some young players, Ranieli is preparing to sign a few more players from the free market, which is why there is the excitement of Monaco's training ground, and even Ranieli is present in person.

Although Ranieri does not have a champion, he is not very famous in the world football world and has always lacked a shortage of next-generation players. The reason why he chose Monaco is not only generous in the club owner, but also his interest in Monaco's prospects.

Therefore, unlike introducing young players from the transfer market, most of the players on the training ground of Monaco training base are over 25 years old.

This group of players is destined to have no room for improvement, but it is what Monaco needs most now. After introducing many young players, Monaco needs several players who have come to fight.

The arrival of Li Shou and Catalano did not attract the attention of others, because a confrontation was being held on the court at this moment, and almost all the people on the court were concentrated on the court.

The coaches did not notice the two, nor did they both disturb others. After arriving at the sidelines, at Catalano's instructions, the two watched the entire second half of the match.

During this period, Catalano also secretly observed Li Shou around him. The old scout found that the little guy he brought back seemed to be good in character, and he could calm down and watch the match on the court seriously.

Li Shou did watch it very seriously. Although he had never really played even a professional game, it did not prevent him from observing his competitors.

At this moment, two old and young people stood in front of the door. After observing this half, Li Shou found that the old and young people did not perform well. Although the old was stable, their reactions were a little unsatisfied, while the younger ones were just the opposite.

"Little guy, how do you think the two goalkeepers on the court perform?" Catalano asked when the match ended.

"It's pretty good," Li Shou replied.

"Do you think you can perform better than them on the court?" Catalano glanced at Li Shou and asked meaningfully.

"Well~~~~ I think it should be better than them." Li Shou originally wanted to be modest, but in the end he chose to tell the truth.

"Li~~~ You have to remember that as a goalkeeper, you can never lose confidence in yourself" Catalano said extremely serious.

For goalkeepers, confidence is very important because without that goalkeeper, he will not concede the ball, and every conceding of the ball is a blow to the goalkeeper, a test of confidence and a psychological test.

"I firmly believe that I can become an excellent goalkeeper." Li Shou has this confidence because he has a pair of magical gloves.

Catalano has a special status in Monaco. He is not only the scout who has played for the longest time, but also brings one outstanding player after another to Monaco.

So when the match ends, the coaches on the sidelines will say hello when they find Catalano, and even head coach Ranieri is no exception.

When he greeted Catalano, he naturally saw Li Shou beside him, so in just a moment, Li Shou entered everyone's sight.

Nervous? One thing is, but Li Shou is more looking forward to it at this moment. After watching the half-time match, Li Shou couldn't wait to go on the court to show his level.

"Bruno, this is guard~ Lee, the position is the goalkeeper, I brought it back from Paris," Catalano introduced to a middle-aged man walking over.

Bruno Ayers, Monaco reserve coach.

"South Korea or Japan" Li Shou felt a little unhappy when he heard the words of the reserve coach.

But this is the current situation of European football. The strength of the world football world is respected. In Asia, South Korea and Japan are undoubtedly strong teams. In recent years, more and more players from South Korea and Japan play in major European leagues.

"I am a Chinese player" said Li Shou before Catalano answering.

"Chinese player?" The reserve team head coach looked at Li Shou. Although there was no change in his face, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes. After all, Li Shou's behavior is very rude now.

"Hello, Mr. Ranieri." But before they could say anything, Ranieri came over.

Then Li Shou felt even more unhappy because Ranieri's reaction was almost exactly the same. Obviously, in the eyes of this Italian head coach, China does not have the ability to come to Europe at all.

Even when he learned that Li Shou was from China, a hint of disappointment flashed across Ranieri's face. Monaco had a main goalkeeper, but Monaco also lacked a substitute goalkeeper at present.

Originally, the main goalkeeper Rufeier fled after the team was relegated. In the just-concluded season, Chabert performed poorly and Monaco came to Subasic from Croatia in winter.

After the end of the season, Chabert, who lost his main position, chose to leave, and Cazola, who came on loan from Rennes, also chose to leave, so there are only two goalkeepers in Monaco.

Moreover, the only one that these two goalkeepers can be used is Subaic. The young goalkeeper Surzak, who is substituted, cannot satisfy Ranieri.
