The Prince of Inter Milan starts with Brother Xiaosa

Chapter 28 One quota of two hundred thousand

In the end, Tottenham Hotspur, playing at home, won the North London derby against their city rival Arsenal with a score of 2 to 1!

And the two young players who scored for Tottenham in this game happened to be Leo and Bell.

Five appearances in the Premier League, whether starting or as a substitute, must result in a goal or assist.

Leo, who had only played the full game in one of the five games but already had three goals and three assists, could no longer hide it. After the game, Martin Jol took him to the press conference.

"This is a great victory! We defeated our mortal enemy at home!

Leading the team to win the North London Derby is certainly something worth celebrating!
  But more than the result of this game, I am more happy to see the outstanding performance of two young people. I 100% believe that both Leo and Gareth can grow into top players in their own right.

What's your opinion of Leo? Unparalleled! He is amazing! Before he came to the team, I would have dismissed anyone who told me he had discovered a 16-year-old talent.

There are too many young players who are called geniuses, and I have seen them a lot, but this is the first time I have seen someone like Leo! "

For Leo, a young player who helped him win the game, Tottenham's head coach did not hesitate to praise him in the interview.

The media reporters in the audience were all dumbfounded. If you brag like this, how can we brag? If you add more oil and vinegar, wouldn't it be blown to the sky?
  Forget it, the British media still prefer their own players. They secretly deleted a long list of words praising Leo, and they should go back and think of ways to praise Bale.

"I'm very happy to be able to start in such an important game.

I can perform like this thanks to the trust of the head coach and the support of my teammates.

Without Gareth’s selfless passing, there would be no goal in the North London Derby.

Want to say something? Thank you to the fans at the scene. Without their support, we might not have been able to win the final victory in such a difficult situation. "

Well, Leo's impeccable answer made all the reporters look at each other. What they wanted to hear was not these false and empty things.

"The referee Clattenberg made several controversial penalties during the game. What do you think?"

He was obviously deliberately trying to stir up trouble and look for footage. How could Leo be fooled? Not to mention that Tottenham's press officer had already given him a series of standard answers to questions before attending the press conference.

In the future, he will definitely have to face the media frequently, and sooner or later, Leo will have to adapt to how to deal with these "uncrowned kings" who have no profit and cannot afford to do it early.

"Really? I was focused on the game on the court and didn't notice what you said.

However, I think it is understandable even if the referee makes some inaccurate penalties. I have always respected the referee's decisions. "

"We have received news that Cesc Fabregas needs surgery for a broken calf. Do you have anything to say about this?"

"I regret this, injuries are something no player wants to see.

But football is like this, especially in high-intensity physical confrontations like the Premier League, serious injuries are inevitable.

All I can say is wish him a speedy recovery. "

"Without fear of controversial penalties, Tottenham had the last laugh in the North London Derby!" 》

"First win in eight years!" Bai Lily captures the Gunners at home! 》

"Two young players contributed, Tottenham narrowly beat Arsenal 2-1!" 》

"Tottenham get a midfield butcher?" The core of the Gunners may be retired for the season!》

Well, other reports were okay and relatively objective, but in the end, Leo decided to use this nonsense tabloid as toilet paper.

What a nasty midfield butcher! Even if he, Leo, changes to a defensive midfielder one day, he should still be nicknamed "Iron Midfielder" or "Iron Wall".

Tottenham under Martin Jol finally broke the curse and led the Lily Army to their first derby victory in eight years.

Although the overall record is still not particularly satisfactory, the Dutchman's position as coach has been stabilized in a short period of time.

Leo noticed that the head coach had more smiles on his face after winning against the Gunners than before.

Three days later, in the second leg of the Europa League, Tottenham went away to face the Cypriot team Anorthosis again.

The fully rotated London team drew 1-1 on the road with Anorthosis at home, and eliminated their opponents to advance to the group stage with a total score of 7-2 in the two rounds.

In the next ninth round of the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur went back-to-back away to challenge Liverpool.

Leo returned to the starting lineup in this game, but Liverpool coach Benitez targeted him further.

The home team's Irish right back Finnan did not let go of Leo throughout the game. Leo, who performed poorly, was replaced early in the second half. However, Tottenham's two forward players were in good condition today and did not steal the spotlight from others.

With Berbatov assisting Robbie Keane's two goals, the Lily Legion drew with the Red Army Liverpool 2-2 away from home!

After the game against Liverpool, there was no game for another two weeks. The international players of each Premier League team also left the club to report to the national team.

That day, as soon as Leo got up in the morning and prepared to go to the training base, he received a call from his father.

You must know that Li's father and Li's mother were busy working in the restaurant from dawn to dusk, so they basically treated Leo's son as a free rein.

Even when sixteen-year-old Leo went to play football abroad, Li's mother still called her son every week to care about him.

At this time, the mobile network was not as developed as it would be later. You could make video calls just by holding up a mobile phone, and Li’s parents couldn’t understand computers.

It's been almost half a year, and Leo hasn't seen his parents again, even through a screen.

"Hello? Dad?"

"Hey! Ersha, how are you doing lately? Are you okay?"

"It's all good. What about you and my mother? Don't work too hard. When I make money in two years, you can close the store. You don't have to work so hard every day and go out early and come back late every day without rest all year round."

"We are all pretty good too. You can play well there and don't worry about us."

Dad Li rambled for a long time without getting to the point. Leo knew that his dad would never call him for no reason. There must be something wrong.

"Dad, I'm about to go to training, do you have anything else to do?"

"Oh, it's like this. Someone in China found your grandfather and asked you if you wanted to join the national youth team."

"Ah? National youth team?"

Leo was born in Milan and has Italian status. If he wants to join the Italian national team, it will be no problem as long as he reaches the level of strength in the future.

But at the same time, his parents are still Chinese nationals, and his grandparents are still in their hometown in Zhejiang Province. If he wants to go back, it is not impossible.

Regarding the question of which country he would play for in the future, Leo always felt that it was still far away and had not seriously considered it.

At least for now, it is easier for a European national to play in mainstream European leagues without so many obstacles.

"Did he say anything else? If he wants to recruit me into the national youth team, he should help me resolve the nationality issue, right?"

"That didn't seem to be mentioned. The person I contacted your grandfather said that if you want to be selected for the National Youth League, you have to pay some benefits, and there is a quota of 200,000 yuan.

First come, first served. If you are late, the quota will be gone. Let us pay quickly. "

Leo:? ? ?
  "So you've been talking for a long time just to ask for money from us? You have to pay benefits to be selected? You don't look at your ability, you just look at whether you pay or not, right?"

Leo laughed angrily. Fortunately, he had really considered whether to change his nationality back to play for China. He didn't care even if it was a little troublesome for him to play in Europe.

But what the National Youth Team did left him completely speechless.

"What did grandpa say? He must still hope that I can play football for China, right?"

"Your grandpa is your grandpa. He has traditional ideas. He didn't agree with your mother and I before going to work, but he didn't stop us.

You don't need to worry about him, just think about it yourself. We don't understand this either. No matter what choice you make, your mother and I will support you! "

Leo didn't hesitate or need to think.

"Refuse, I can't afford the 200,000 yuan, and I don't deserve to join his 'noble' national youth team."

"Okay, I understand, I'll help you get back."

　Starting from tomorrow, the update time will be adjusted. Chapter 1 at 12:00 noon and Chapter 1 at 6:00 pm. You can wait for the two chapters in the evening to read together.

　　In addition, according to the original outline, the first season on loan at Tottenham is equivalent to paving the way, giving Leo a growth process before returning to Inter Milan to compete for the championship, which is expected to be about 100,000 words.

　　But if you are not very interested in the plot of the Premier League, I can also speed up and skip all the unimportant games and return to Serie A early. I want to know your opinions.
