Chapter 165 Samp Training Ground

"Genoa news: Jiang Chu joined Sampdoria. The talented goalkeeper was born in 1993 and is the best player in the Serie B this season. After spending half a brilliant season, the magical goalkeeper officially joined Sampdoria today. Earlier, the deal was completed and the player signed a contract with a term of June 30, 2015."

On January 16, 2011, Sampdoria's official website officially announced the news that Chujiang joined the team.

The day before the announcement of the news by Sampdoria Club, Chu Jiang had packed his bags in Verona and left the strange city.

When leaving Verona, no one saw him off, no one regretted it. Even Chevo's own fans did not notice that there was a player who once belonged to them, and hurried past them.

Chu Jiang, who was walking in a hurry, did not leave any trace of his own in the vast and cold Verona.

This was his second time leaving Verona. The situation was exactly the same as when he left the first time.

However, when he came here for the third time and left the city again, would this strange city still be so indifferent?

At the location of Chevo Club, Satoli, Campedeli is excited about the benefits of his club.

For these two smart businessmen, an investment costing only more than 300,000 euros in half a year quickly brought them a generous return of 2.7 million euros. What an efficient transaction and what a pleasant thing.

However, in this office, Pagano had some worries. He frowned slightly and looked out the window.

"Have we really done this transfer right?"

Recalling the resolute expression of the oriental boy, he suddenly felt a little uncertain.

Is it really right?

It's too early to say now. But time will tell.

After the Sampdoria Club announced the news, it immediately caused quite a lot of controversy on the Sampdoria fan forum.

On the forum, fans began to actively follow the player from the Serie B and share his information in the forum.

Most Sampdoria fans have a positive view on Chu Jiang’s performance in Turin in the past six months.

However, fans have different opinions on whether this deal is cost-effective, and whether it is suitable for Sampdoria.

Currently, the main goalkeeper of Sampdoria is Kurchi born in 1985, and the substitute for Kurchi is Dacosta born in 1982. In the youth team, Sampdoria also has one of the best goalkeepers of the Italian youth generation, Fiorillo born in 1990.

Fans really don't think Sampdoria, who has limited financial resources, needs to invest so much transfer fees into a young goalkeeper from a low-level league, who is as young as Kurchi. In the eyes of Sampdoria's fans, the club should trust Fiorillo, trained by its youth team, rather than spending huge sums of money to introduce a younger goalkeeper to replace him.

Especially, in Sampdoria's history, there were similar failed deals. The unlucky young man happened to be a goalkeeper.

Chu Jiang should be familiar with that goalkeeper. He is the opponent Chu Jiang met when he was away against Barry, and Barry's goalkeeper Padley at the time.

When Padley debuted, he played in Serie A as the main player of the A-level team at the age of 17, winning unanimous praise from experts, just like Chu Jiang now. However, after transferring to Sampdoria, Padley did not show his extraordinary talent and was abandoned by the team soon after.

Padley is now on the bench of different teams, and there is still a little bit of the aura before?

In the eyes of Sampdoria fans, Chu Jiang is now like Padley!

After a loss-making deal, the team's management did not repent and made another deal, which made the fans feel very dissatisfied.

After Casano left the team, the team's attack power was sharply reduced. Fans urgently hope that the club can quickly introduce a forward with aura to solve the problem of the team's forward position.

Under such circumstances, fans saw that the team not only did not pay for a striker, but instead spent a lot of money to buy a semi-finished goalkeeper, which made the fans feel very angry while disappointed!

Therefore, most Samp fans expressed dissatisfaction with Chu Jiang's arrival. Among them, a considerable number of people strongly opposed it.

"The mentally retarded management, the stingy chairman, the idiot deal!"

This is the final conclusion of this deal by extreme fans.

Chu Jiang didn't know about the fans' reactions.

After leaving Verona, Chu Jiang rushed to Genoa as fast as possible and came to Sampdoria's training base and Boliasco training base.

Chu Jiang still remembers Di Carlo's promise. In order to play as soon as possible and complete the running-in with the new team as soon as possible, he must seize every second and come to Sampdoria as soon as possible.

The Boliasco training base is located in the suburbs, very remote and not large in size, but the quality of the venue is pretty good. When Chu Jiang and his agent drove here, Tosi greeted him early and introduced them to the gate of the training base.

Accompanied by him, Chu Jiang stood on Boliasco's training ground for the first time.

At this time, Sampdoria players are doing pre-match preparation practice for the Italian Cup against Udinese.

Seeing Chu Jiang arrive with the club general manager, Di Carlo interrupted the training.

"Hey guys, introduce you to a new teammate!"

Tosey clapped his hands, walked onto the training ground, and said with a smile.

"Hello everyone, I am Chu Jiang, from China. I used to play football in the Turin team. I'm very happy to meet everyone!"

Chu Jiang walked to Tosi and said calmly.

This is not the first time he has encountered such an occasion.

Looking back, when Chu Jiang first came to Italy, he was in Appiano in Inter Milan. At that time, he was passively waiting for others to introduce him.

Chujiang is now much more mature than when he first arrived in the Apennines.

Even compared with Chu Jiang, the players in front of him are big-name stars with several years of experience in the top league. However, Chu Jiang is still very calm, without any tension or restraint.

Although Chu Jiang is quite famous in the second division, there are not many people who really know Chu Jiang in the first division.

After a moment of silence, a strong man came out from the crowd and walked towards Chu Jiang. He saw that he had a flat head with a flat head, his eyes were not big, but he was very energetic and his smile was very bright.

"Hello, Chinese! I am Palonbo, Angelo Palonbo, the captain of the team. Welcome to Boliasco and join Sampdoria. From today on, you will be our teammate!"

Since he could not read Chu Jiang's name accurately, Palonbo simply called him by the Chinese.

Facing Chu Jiang, Palonbo stretched out his right hand to represent the entire team to accept his arrival.

"Thanks!"

Chu Jiang also stretched out his hand and shook hands with Palonbo to signal.

Angelo Palonbo, Sampdoria's most prestigious player, a member of the Italian national team, and one of the top midfielders in the Serie A. In Sampdoria, he is the leader of the entire team. In the hearts of Sampdoria's fans, the captain's weight even surpasses the team's head coach Di Carlo and the team's chairman Garone.

Before coming, Chu Jiang had already gained a full understanding of him.

If he can get the recognition of Palonbo, Chu Jiang will truly integrate into this team.

"Okay, since we have met, Chu, you can go back and take a break. Come here to report tomorrow morning and start normal training."

Di Carlo smiled.

After saying that, he turned around and prepared to instruct the players to continue to start today's training.

"Sir Coach, wait!"

Chu Jiang called him.

"Oh? What else?"

Di Carlo turned around and asked patiently.

"I'm going to participate in today's training!"

"What?"

Di Carlo was surprised.

As soon as these words came out, even Palonbo, who was walking back, stopped, turned around, and looked at Chu Jiang in surprise.

"Chu, I can understand your mood to integrate into the team as soon as possible."

"But you just arrived in Genoa and your physical condition is not ideal."

"And, you didn't participate in today's warm-up training. Participating in the training directly is not an ideal choice for you. Chu Jiang, it's better to go back and rest for a day and come to normal training tomorrow."

Dicaro persuaded.

There is a famous saying in Italy, "Roma is not built in one day (roma. non .fu .fatta .in. un. giorno.)". In Di Carlo's view, it takes a long time to integrate into the team, and Chu Jiang did not need to start practicing with the whole team in such a hurry.

"It's okay, I'm in good health right now."

"During Chievo's period, my training was not normal, mainly personal training. Therefore, I need to train with the team, adjust my status as soon as possible, and meet the requirements of the game."

"Believe me, I have no problem."

After systematic special training, Chu Jiang clearly felt that his physical fitness was much better than before. Although he was not very good on his appearance, Chu Jiang rarely felt tired during training. Both his durability and recovery speed have made great progress than before.

"Oh well."

Di Carlo thought about it and finally agreed to Chu Jiang's request.

"But don't force yourself. If you have any physical discomfort, take the initiative to say it out. Your training today can be terminated at any time, and everything is under your control."

Di Carlo reminded him a little worriedly.

"Okay, thank you coach!"

Chu Jiang was excited and immediately walked to the team's assistant coach, asking for a temporary goalkeeper outfit, ready to start today's training.

"This young man has a very enthusiastic work experience. However, I just don't know what his level is."
Chapter completed!
