Chapter 151 The Most Valuable Player Under 20 in World Football

Martin, who was waiting for the plane at Hannover Airport, was still thinking about the spy-like Wenger. He was still reluctant to believe that Arsenal coach Wenger would be willing to sell Ergou for the reasons he said casually.

After all, Ergou, who joined as Arsenal's standard king the year before, is now a very important role in Wenger's tactical system.

The 27-year-old is also the golden age of his career.

In the end of the 2014-2015 season, the Premier League, Cup and Champions League performed well, and Wenger has no reason to sell Ozil, who has a good plug-and-play effect.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!!"

Martin consoled himself.

Soon, the airport announced that a non-stop flight from Hannover to Porto was coming, and passengers were preparing to board.

He packed his things and boarded a flight to Porto.

However, what Martin didn't know was that Wenger did have serious consideration and planned to fulfill the prerequisites for reaching a verbal agreement.

The way Wenger got to know Martin was that he was a very assertive young man.

The prerequisite for proposing to join Arsenal is to sell Ergou first without asking whether there is a private conflict, but thinking about how to complete it.

Of course, Wenger is not impulsive.

Although Ergou has indeed played a big role since joining Arsenal, his attendance rate in the two seasons he joined was not high, not even 70%.

This is a bit unreasonable for a star who carries the Arsenal standard and has the highest weekly salary in the team.

In addition, after two full seasons of adaptation, Ergou has always been afraid of physical contact in the Premier League, so that he often loses the ball inexplicably.

In his first season of his career, apart from necessary rotations, Martin did not have any injuries and maintained a high degree of full attendance.

Throughout the 2014-2015 season, the Bundesliga, German Cup and Europa League completed an extremely exaggerated 50 assists.

This... is very scary.

The most important thing is that Martin can play a very important role on the defensive end.

The Europa League final also showed a strong role as a midfield commander. If he can adapt to the fierce atmosphere of the Premier League, he can definitely play a better role than Ergou.

It is equivalent to saying that Martin can not only ensure the safety in front of the central defender, but also organize the offense in series, and what is commendable is that he can also send deadly assists.

Wenger, who thought of these key information, decided to meet the prerequisites for Martin to join after a short thought.

Wenger is about to turn 66 years old, and he has only a few years in his coaching career.

He... wants to lead Arsenal to another league title before retiring.

And Martin, who has strong offensive and defensive capabilities, is the most important piece of the puzzle in Wenger's mind.

In other words, he wants to make up for the regret of missing Martin last summer.

Martin, who got on the flight, didn't think about Wenger any more, but closed his eyes and meditated.

His teammates who played well in the U17 youth team are basically transferred to U19 and are preparing for the Triwizard Tournament.

However, he returned to Porto this time mainly to visit Wei Shaohao, a good friend who was influenced by him and trained crazily in the past season.

In his previous life, Wei Shaohao was unwilling to fight in a peaceful environment. In this life, he had no way out, so he fought with the fighting spirit that a man should have.

Although the main position has not been established in Boavista, but the end of the 2014-2015 season has won many opportunities to come off the bench.

His speed and technique have been well verified, but his physical confrontation is weak.

In order to get a stable chance to play in the fierce Portuguese Super League, he chose to play in Porto when the team was on vacation, in order to gain muscle.

Arriving in Porto, Martin immediately called a few good friends to come out and have a meal.

As the most eye-catching young player under the age of 2014 in the 2015-20 season, he is also the best among this group of friends, so he naturally shoulders the burden of paying the bill.

"Brother Ma, next season I want to apply for a loan to go out and exercise, and I want to wait for the opportunity. What do you think?"

After drinking two glasses of beer, Wei Shaohao expressed his thoughts.

"If you can get the opportunity to play more games on loan, you might as well apply for it. You are also 20 years old, which is a critical period for personal growth. You should really play more games."

Martin said without hesitation: "If you really want to play more games, with your ability, you can be the main force in the secondary leagues. Portuguese leagues, German second divisions, French second divisions, Spanish second divisions, and even the first leagues can be considered. Having a stable chance to play is king."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

"I really envy you guys."

Dalot looked at Martin, Wei Shaohao and Ruben Neves and sighed.

"You are only 16 years old, why are you so anxious? Your physical development is not good, and playing professional league games too early will harm you, understand?"

Martin stretched out his hand and flicked Dalot on the forehead.

"Then why did you become the main force so early?"

Felix asked curiously.

"I am a genius."

"Cut!~"

Everyone looked at Martin with his head raised, booed tacitly and raised a middle finger at the same time.

But contempt is contempt, and the few people are still very envious.

At the age of 17, he started to play the main force in Wolfsburg, and he played extremely amazing statistics in his debut season.

Played 45+ games in all competitions, contributed 3 goals and 50 assists.

His personal worth has grown from hundreds of thousands of euros at the beginning of the German "Transfer Market" to a breakthrough of 6000 million euros after a season. He is already the most expensive professional football player in U18.

It is an exaggeration to say that he is the most expensive player under the age of 20.

You must know that Messi was only worth 20 million euros when he was 6000 years old.

And now Martin is only 18 years old.

There is still great potential for growth.

During this period of time, I saw the media frenziedly reporting that the major giants waved banknotes, hoping to take Martin away.

According to multiple media reports, the quotations of the giants all exceed 7000 million euros.

This price... is what they dreamed of.

Two words, envy.

Three words, very envious.

Four words, very envious.

"Do you have any secrets to success?"

Dalot, who was still rubbing his forehead, looked at Martin with longing.

The others didn't speak, but their expectant eyes said everything.

"You all want to know?"

Martin glanced at everyone.

Felix glanced at Martin meaningfully: "Just don't fool us with a trip to the Dragon Kingdom."

Since last summer Martin said that he paid homage to Sanqing in the dilapidated Taoist temple in Longguo, his whole person has undergone tremendous changes. The coaches and players of the youth team, including even the coaches and players of the first team, have found time to go to the deep suburbs of Longguo to find the dilapidated Taoist temple.

As a result... In addition to contributing a negligible GDP to the Dragon Kingdom, he was also bitten by mosquitoes several times.

At that time, Martin also heard the gossip about Porto in the Whatsapp friend group, and almost laughed out loud.

"As the saying goes, some things can't be said in words but can only be felt, how about..."

He nodded solemnly: "I'll pick you up at seven o'clock tomorrow morning, and I'll know when the time comes."

"tomorrow?"

Ruben Neves shook his head and said, "I have something to do tomorrow."

"What's the matter with you, why don't you fall in love with that model who is six years older than you?"

Dalot rolled his eyes.

"Don't tell us when you're in love? Are you still a good friend?"

Hearing that Ruben Neves talked about his girlfriend, who was six years older than him, Martin suddenly became interested: "I said Ruben, you are too heavy-handed, aren't you?"

"Tch, the young little sister doesn't understand me, and she still loses her temper, which is boring."

The young and mature Ruben Neves shrugged and said, "Do you know how I felt when I patted her butt and asked me why I patted it? But my sister who is six years older knows what I want to do, and she cooperates."

Martin agrees with this.

"Then who is not going tomorrow?"

Seeing that no one shook his head, Martin said, "Then at seven o'clock tomorrow morning, I will pick you up by car."

"OK."

……

The next day, Martin drove the Range Rover mentioned last night to pick up some friends who were on vacation.

"Martin, do you usually get up this early?"

Felix sat in the back seat, rubbing his eyes sleepily.

"Nonsense! As a professional player, the first thing you need to do is self-discipline!"

Martin gave Felix a chestnut.

"Ah~"

"I... I usually get up very early, hehe."

When Dalot saw Felix yelling with his head in pain, he immediately changed the topic.

"Tell me, why are you looking for us so early? The clubhouse probably isn't open at this time."

Diogo Costa squeezed his chin and started the joke.

"Didn't you ask me yesterday afternoon what is the secret of my success?"

Martin, who was driving to observe the road conditions, ignored Diogo Costa's joke and went directly to the topic: "You will find out later."

After driving for about 10 minutes, Martin parked the car at a professional football field in the suburbs that he reserved in advance.

"Why are you here?"

Wei Shaohao asked.

"train."

Martin opened the trunk of the car: "This is the equipment provided by my sponsor. They are all according to your size. They have been compiled according to your names for you. Let's put them on."

"They're all from Puma?"

Felix leaned over, looking at the latest equipment on the market, his eyes glowing.

Seeing Martin nodding, they shouted excitedly, "Nice!"

The situation of the four is better than that of Wei Shaohao. Felix, Diogo Costa and Dalot are all members of the youth team, and the equipment is all inferior products provided by the first-team brand equipment supplier New Balance, which can only be said to be makeshift.

As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools.

With good equipment, you can better display your personal strength.

So the three friends of the youth team were very excited, as if they forgot that Martin tricked them into the 'wilderness'.

Martin set up training equipment such as ice cream cones, cue sticks, sign plates, rope ladders, etc. according to the high-intensity training content in Wolfsburg, and then warmed up with a few friends.

About half an hour later, I took four people to conduct high-intensity and interesting training to improve the training effect.

However, he still overestimated the physical condition of his friend and Wei Shaohao, and felt powerless after a while, slumped on the grass, breathing greedily.

"You have to realize that in Wolfsburg it's just the appetizer of the training session."

Martin kicked Dalot who was lying on the grass like a dead fish: "Don't you want to know the secret of my success?"

"We want to know, but we don't want to train so hard."

Felix was speechless.

"You are all wrong. There is no so-called secret to success in this world."

"If you want to become stronger, you must first adapt to high-intensity training at the professional level! Only when you complete the training requirements assigned by the coaching staff in the training session will you have the opportunity to gain the attention of the coach."

"You all must think that I have achieved what I am today because of talent. It is undeniable, indeed, but success is 1% talent and 99% sweat!"

Martin said successively in a sharp tone: "Even if it is me, I will insist on practicing for at least two hours every day. There is no shortcut to success, and some are just sweat and hard work."

Listening to Martin's provocative lectures, the few people who had already felt a significant decline in physical fitness suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.

Looking at each other, they both saw a strong desire to become a professional player in each other's eyes.

Martin looked at his friends who got up and went to training again, and also followed a group of training.

Although he has a system, he must also persevere in training.

"come on! Come on!!"

The group of four insisted on relying on extraordinary perseverance until Martin took the initiative to end the special training in the morning.

Looking at the four people who persisted, Martin was very pleased.

He firmly believes that as long as it can continue, the future achievements of the four people in front of him will definitely be better than the original world!
