Soccer: Maxed-out ball control, the skill is too overpowered.

Thomas Muller was drenched in sweat, leaning on his knees and panting heavily.

"Lu, honestly... you played really well tonight."

After a 45-minute intense competition, they still had to do 100 push-ups.

Thomas Muller is exhausted.

That's right, Bayern Munich's main A team, the starting lineup of the treble-winning team,

They actually lost to Bayern's reserve B team!

Since they had agreed to do 100 push-ups, the members of Team A had no choice but to grit their teeth and finish the bet.

Robben, Ribery, Lahm, Neuer and other superstars trembled as they completed 100 reps, then collapsed onto the grass, exhausted...

Thomas Muller was able to stand up and come to Lu Xiao's side to congratulate him.

The most unexpected reason for losing to Team B was Lu Xiao.

Both goals were scored by Lu Xiao!

The first goal was a feint, a quick stop, a backheel bounce to deceive the defender, followed by a smooth volley.

The second goal, Team B counterattacks.

Faced with a 60-meter long pass, Lu Xiao actually managed to stop and dribble past the defender right in front of the penalty area!

He easily controlled the ball with his toes, then nutmegged Boateng, dribbled past him into the penalty area, and scored his second goal in a one-on-one situation.

To be honest, both goals were very impressive.

Thomas Muller could never have imagined that his somewhat green junior from elementary school would grow up so quickly!

This is absolutely unbelievable!

If Lu Xiao is this talented, there's no reason for Bayern Munich to let him go!

If Thomas Müller were a Bayern Munich executive, he would definitely do everything in his power to keep Lu Xiao.

"You played really well. Should I try to persuade Guardiola to let you stay in the first team?"

Thomas Müller is a key player who came through Bayern Munich's youth academy.

His words should have some effect; perhaps they can persuade Rummenigge.

"Thank you, Thomas. But I need to think about my future plans more carefully."

"Okay, if possible, I hope to become your teammate."

It seems Lu Xiao has his own ideas, and Thomas Muller can't force him to.

It's also crucial to consider head coach Pep Guardiola.

Does Guardiola want Lu Xiao to stay with the team?

……

"How so?"

"He's really talented; I feel like we should give him a professional contract."

"Hmm, no rush, let our coaching staff discuss it further."

"All right."

Lu Xiao's performance just now impressed Guardiola.

His ball control is simply divine!

A name immediately popped into Guardiola's mind—Ronaldinho!

That's right!

Lu Xiao's ball control, dribbling, and elegant ball handling are reminiscent of Ronaldinho, the "football genius," FIFA World Player of the Year, and Ballon d'Or winner.

Unfortunately, Ronaldinho's form declined rather quickly, and his peak period passed in the blink of an eye.

If Ronaldinho could maintain his professionalism, go to nightclubs less often, and stick to his training regimen...

Perhaps the world still belongs to Ronaldinho.

Messi and Ronaldo will be a little behind.

Upon seeing Lu Xiao, Guardiola couldn't resist wanting to nurture him and make him the next Ronaldinho.

but……

One match is not enough to draw the following conclusions.

It takes long-term observation to truly judge a player's potential.

Bayern Munich's transfer and personnel rights are not entirely in Guardiola's hands.

The final decision still required the approval of football director Matthias Sammer, who in turn was under the command of Rummenigge.

The future of any player requires careful discussion between Guardiola and the management.

According to the procedures of major clubs, it will take at least a week to get a result.

Guardiola thought to himself,

Since Lu Xiao has nowhere to go anyway, we might as well let him stay at the first team's training base for a few more days and train with the team.

It's impossible for any other team to poach him, right?

How could a 16-year-old Chinese player be like this?

Guardiola shook his head and turned to leave the training ground.

……

After training, Bayern Munich players returned to the locker room in twos and threes.

The first team members each have their own cliques.

Lu Xiao was left behind, and no one paid him any attention for the time being.

During this period of time, Lu Xiao was training at Bayern Munich's training grounds, but he wasn't really familiar with them. At most, he was on good terms with Thomas Müller.

"Hey! Young man!"

"Hey! Over here, over here!!"

Lu Xiao didn't pay attention at first, thinking it was just the shouts of fans outside the stadium.

Turning his head, he saw someone waving at him.

"I?"

Lu Xiao pointed to his own nose.

"That's right!! It's you!"

That's strange. He's just a young player who came through the youth academy. There's no way any fans would care about him...

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a middle-aged man, around 40 years old, wearing a fisherman's vest and hat... a fisherman?

No, it's another scout.

The DSLR camera on his body, the small notebook in his breast pocket, and the DV camera in his hand were all very obvious.

there is only one truth!

Lu Xiao didn't watch Detective Conan for nothing all those years.

Out of curiosity, I went over to see what was going on.

"gentlemen?"

"Hello, I saw you played very well just now and I wanted to chat with you... I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Jens Wheeler, a scout for Bayer Leverkusen."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man

"Bayer Leverkusen?"

"That's right, it's the one you're thinking of."

Hey!

Lu Xiao guessed half of it correctly.

The scout's accent was clearly from western Germany, specifically North Rhine-Westphalia.

Compared to the Munich accent, which has a stronger rolled "r", the Rhine accent is relatively mild and close to the standard German accent.

Lu Xiao, who has lived in Belgium and Germany for 16 years, heard it very clearly.

Near the Rhine region, there are German second and third division teams such as Rosé Essen and Cologne.

Lu Xiao initially thought it was normal for a team from a lower league to poach a 16-year-old player.

Leverkusen surprised him; they were a strong Bundesliga team!

Their performance has been relatively stable every year, hovering between 3rd and 6th place in the upper half of the bracket, and occasionally making a splash in the Champions League.

Last season, Bayer Leverkusen finished third and qualified for the Champions League.

This is absolutely appealing to players!

"Excuse me, sir, how much longer until your contract with Bayern Munich's youth academy expires?"

Scout Jens Wheeler instinctively assumed that Lu Xiao was a product of Bayern Munich's youth academy.

Seeing that he seemed interested, I decided to step up my efforts to poach him.

Based on Lu Xiao's performance just now, there's no need to say more; poaching Leverkusen is definitely the right move!

"My contract has expired, and I am now a free agent."

"That's great. If time allows, I can take you back to base this afternoon."

"So fast?"

Lu Xiao glanced at the business card in his hand, fearing that the person was an imposter who was deliberately luring people to secluded places for kidney-related remedies.

"If you're not comfortable with that, you can check the Leverkusen official website; my information is displayed in the employee section."

"I believe you, let's leave this afternoon!"

Lu Xiao is not a procrastinator.

Since we have nowhere else to go, why not check out Bayer Leverkusen!

"Great! My social media accounts and phone number are all behind me. We can talk in detail later."

Jens Wheeler was very pleased.

He had a feeling he'd won the lottery big this time!

A prize comparable to those of Messi and Ronaldo!

Lu Xiao was also looking forward to it.

After being disgusted by Ten Hag, he has completely lost his fascination with Bayern Munich.

With Guardiola joining Bayern Munich, he himself will likely have little chance of making a name for himself, and staying in the first team will most likely mean spending most of his time on the bench.

Why don't we go out and take a look!

Back in the locker room, Lu Xiao briefly told Thomas Muller about the incident.

Erwa helped her a lot, and Lu Xiao was really grateful to him.

"Oh? I thought you'd stay with the first team."

"I want to go out and try my luck. If I get the chance, we'll probably be enemies."

"Leverkusen is a good team. They don't have many strikers this season, so you'll definitely have plenty of opportunities... Keep it up!"

"When we meet, I won't hold back."

"Haha, then you'll have to go all out. We're the Bundesliga champions."

The two shook hands in greeting.

I predict the next handshake will be on the Bundesliga pitch!
