I am the king of football

Chapter 311 Tiger Roaring Act of Justice
While reports about Qin Hu as MVP helping Manchester United beat Liverpool twice appeared in headlines everywhere, a piece of news that foreign media did not pay much attention to became news that was equally as popular as Qin Hu's headlines in China.

The title is simple - Porto B team and Huxiao Football School reached an agreement.

That’s right, after rounds of negotiations and seeing the performance of the Chinese-born genius Qin Hu once again, the person in charge of Porto B team relented, and the two sides reached a final agreement on the exchange and delivery of youth training players.

Huxiao Football School will bear 70% of the financial expenses of the young Chinese players after they arrive in Porto, while Porto B team youth training camp will bear 30%.

Porto B team does not guarantee that they will keep these young players. They will only select players who meet the club's youth training standards to stay. Once they stay, Huxiao Football School will not receive any transfer income, but will only obtain a contract that will receive 30% of the transfer income when the player transfers in the future.

In addition, Huxiao Football School must pay 200 million euros in cooperation funds to Porto B team every year. Porto B team will regularly send youth training coaches to China to guide and select young players. These players will go to Porto B team for trial training in batches, and those who pass the trial will stay.

As for those who are unqualified, as long as they meet the requirement of being under 18 years old, they can participate in every selection until they are 18 years old and still fail to meet the requirements. At that time, they will take another path arranged by Huxiao Football School - to play in the domestic field.

Qin Hu used his financial resources and influence to pave a way for the young players of Huxiao Football School, but whether it will work in the end depends on the individuals.

The day of the official signing was Qin Hu’s second day of holiday, so he personally went to Portugal to participate in the signing.

However, Qin Hu was only present as a bystander and witness. The principal and head coach of Huxiao Football School were Qin Jun and Li Xiang respectively. The two men were dressed in suits and shook hands and took photos with the other side's youth training director very formally.

This photo was quickly posted on Porto's official website. Although the contract was signed with Porto B team, any discerning person could see that such close cooperation would not be achieved without the approval of the main club.

In this way, the young players who study abroad actually have a very clear promotion channel, Porto B team youth training - Porto B team first team - Porto first team, when they reach the last step, their study abroad is considered a success.

Being able to play for a Portuguese Super League giant, if you perform well in the Champions League or the Europa League, the giants in the five major leagues will definitely take notice. What kind of achievements and development you will achieve by then, as I said, depends on the individual.

Although the domestic media did not obtain the detailed contents of the contract, they understood the general direction of the cooperation between Huxiao Football School and Porto through Li Xiang's deliberate arrangement and disclosure. All major newspapers and media rushed to report on it.

It is certainly a source of pride and satisfaction that Qin Hu is thriving in the Premier League and is famous all over the world, but the rise of Chinese football cannot rely on just one person. More football talents must invest in this industry and excel.

In this turbulent and dark era in domestic football, people with lofty ideals are well aware that there is only one way for young Chinese players to succeed - studying abroad. Therefore, the move by Huxiao Football School to help the development of Chinese football almost out of its own pocket can be regarded as a righteous act and has been well received by all walks of life.

According to the arrangement, when spring arrives in March this year, the first batch of young players from Huxiao Football School will go to Porto for the first trial training lasting one month, and everyone has begun to pay attention to this matter.

Qin Hu was also not idle. When the domestic media was widely reporting on this cooperation, he once again promoted Huxiao Football School on his social media. Both the benefits of the football school and the future advancement channels were already quite clear, which led to a wave of registrations for the school afterwards.

Some parents whose children have potential but have no way to enter the industry due to poor financial conditions come here to attend. This undoubtedly gives more people opportunities. One day, if Huxiao Football School can operate stably and sustainably, the hope of Chinese football may really go from this school to the world.

After the agreement was signed, the leaders of both parties began to arrange a series of work. Porto B team also sent the first batch of coaches to China. There was not much Qin Hu could participate in. He flew back to Manchester to rest for a night and started normal training again the next day.

In the new week, due to the unexpected draw in the FA Cup, Manchester United, which originally had only one game scheduled, had to face the new schedule of the FA Cup in the middle of the week and the weekend league. In addition to the FA Cup return to home against West Ham United, the opponent of the weekend league game is none other than Tottenham Hotspur, one of the BIG6.

This will be another big battle, especially now that Tottenham are in excellent form with six unbeaten games in the league, and their new twin stars Harry Kane and Gareth Bale are radiating an extremely dazzling light throughout the league.

Of course, Tottenham is indeed a tricky team, and the FA Cup match against West Ham United is not easy. Although the opponent is a Championship team, the difficulty of the opponent in the first round is still vivid in their minds, and Ferguson and his players have to cheer up.

In addition, with only three days of training to prepare for the match, the team's starting lineup against Liverpool was obviously not up to date. Considering that they would also play against Tottenham at the weekend, Ferguson had no choice but to rotate the players again this time.

This was obviously completely different from the plan of sending out all the main players to defeat the opponent in the next match after the first leg was tied. The whole Manchester United team couldn't help but become nervous.

"Hernandez and Welbeck are the two forwards."

The day before the game, Sir Alex Ferguson announced the starting lineup in his team's meeting room.

"Nani, Scholes, Fletcher, Valencia in the midfield, Butner, Phil Jones, Smalling, Evra in the back, and Lindegaard in the goal."

The Little Pea is leading the attack, and veteran Scholes is in charge of the midfield. From the perspective of the midfield and frontcourt, Manchester United's roster is not bad.

However, in the backcourt, except for Evra who is a regular starter, the other four defenders are substitutes, and the goalkeeper is also the team's second goalkeeper, so it doesn't look so good.

"Be careful, be careful, the opponent's attack is not that strong, the key is to defend against the opponent's quick counterattack, don't lose your position easily!"

"Understood, Boss!"

The immaturity of the defense forced Ferguson to emphasize defensive discipline again after the list was announced. He hoped that these young people, whom he had high hopes for, would not let him down.

"Evra, you will be in charge of the defense in tomorrow's game!"

"Okay, BOSS!"

Finally, he did not forget to cheer up Evra, the only veteran in the defense line. At least with a big brother around, it would be less likely for others to collapse.

The second chapter is here! Thank you for your support! Everyone knows how bad the domestic football world is. It is really sad. Ten years, a reincarnation, nothing has changed. Tiger Roar is an idealized product of mine. If we want to develop and achieve success again, Chinese football can only start from scratch again for another ten years. I hope that by that day, everything will be better...
