In this way, Gao Zheng began his training life in the first team of Sampdoria.

At the beginning, because everyone had a vacation, the training was mainly about restoring the body, and the training volume was not large.

But as time goes by, the amount of training gradually increases.

At this stage, physical training is still being carried out to reserve enough physical fitness for the new season.

The training intensity of the first team is indeed greater than that of the reserve team.

But Gao Zheng felt that he could still bear it, and his body did not have too much load.

When I think about it, I have to thank the training and adaptation I received in the reserve team.

If he had been directly on the first team, with his physical condition at that time, it would have been difficult for him to persevere.

So last season, Gao Zheng was not in a hurry to go to the first team. He also strongly agreed with the reserve coach Bruno's training plan for him.

Speaking of Bruno, I don’t know how he is doing in the new team…

When the team was training on the training ground, first-team head coach Janluca Atzori was talking to the team's general manager Zagramora, the newly appointed first-team sports manager Pasquale Sensibile, and Doriano Latic of the executive echelon.

While talking, everyone's eyes fell on the players on the field.

"That tall man is tall." Latic is introducing Gao Zheng to first-team head coach Atzori. "Although he only came to the reserve team for half a season, he quickly became the core of the reserve team. Coach Bruni believes that his talent is still above Mauro Icardi."

Atzori frowned. He could not tell how good his talent was from his thin body.

"Who is Coach Bruno?" he asked.

"Oh, the head coach of the reserve team, led the reserve team to the reserve league championship last season, mainly relying on two people, Gao and Icardi." Latic explained that as a sports manager who specializes in recruiting young players, he is more familiar with the echelon than everyone present, and naturally has a more say. "In fact, we wanted to transfer him to the first team last season, but we didn't succeed..."

"Why didn't it succeed?" Atzori asked curiously.

"Bruni didn't agree. He thought Gao wasn't ready yet and should practice more in the reserve team."

"Although Gao is very talented, he has problems. His physical fitness is not very good... So he always plays as a substitute in the reserve team, and he didn't start until the final against Roma." Latic added.

Atzori laughed: "Watch the core of the substitute?" There was a bit of irony in his laughter.

"Uh..." Latic was a little embarrassed. How could he not hear what Atzori mean? But he remembered Brony's advice to him before leaving, and decided to pass on Brony's words to Atzori. "When I first came to the team, my physical fitness was indeed very bad, but after half a season of training, my physical fitness is much better than before. However, the first team and the reserve team are still different after all. Both the training intensity and the intensity of the game are much greater. You can let him play as a substitute first. This can be explained to the players themselves. I believe he is completely acceptable..."

Atzori interrupted Latic and said in a bad tone: "Mr. Latic, thank you for your extra explanation. But I seem to remember that the club invited me to be the head coach."

Latic was a little surprised at Atzori's reaction. He was just out of kindness, but it seemed that Atzori had misunderstood what he meant?

The four suddenly fell into an embarrassing silence.

In the end, the club's general manager Zagra Mora stood up and played a smooth game: "Well, our club is also very optimistic about high talent, so there will be some suggestions. Of course, the first team is still dominated by the head coach, which must be no problem."

"That's good, Mr. General Manager." Atzori squeezed a smile at Zagramora, then glanced at Latic again.

Latic lowered his head and said nothing.

A few days after entering the first team training, Gao Zheng received another call from Alberto Masi.

This time Masi came to say goodbye to him.

"It has been decided that I'm going to Proville Celli."

"Where is that?" Gao Zheng was really unfamiliar with these names.

"A giant team that has won seven top league championships is amazing or not!"

"ah?"

"Well, I'm talking about what happened in history, a hundred years ago...well, now in the first league."

In short, the Italian league can be divided into three football leagues for management.

The first is the National Professional Football League, which manages two-tier leagues and is the most familiar Serie A and Serie B leagues.

The second league is the Italian Football Professional League, which is called the Professional League, but it actually manages the League C. The League C is divided into two levels, namely the League C1 and the League C2. However, Italy is now discussing reforms to the League C2 in China, and it is possible to cancel the League C2 in the future and merge with the League C1.

The third is the National Amateur Football League, which manages the Italian Division D League, which is planned to be nine districts according to the administrative district.

There are league levels further down, such as the Excellence League divided into 28 districts, the Promotion League divided into 54 districts... and so on.

Provercelli, who Masi is going to, is in the first league of the C. Although it is one level lower than the second league, it is still a real professional league. The training effect for players is definitely better than that of the reserve league.

"It's pretty good. Is it renting out for exercise?"

"No, transfer."

"What?" Gao Zheng thought he had heard it wrong.

"Well, it's actually a shared right. The club gave half of my ownership to Provercelli," explained Massi.

For Italian football clubs, it is very common to make full use of shared rights to trade players, especially for young players.

"You still have half of the ownership in Sampdoria, so I'm still waiting for you in the first team, ha!"

"I will work hard! I also want to play at Brassi Stadium (Note: Luigi Ferraris Stadium is the official name, but Sampdoria fans and players prefer to call this stadium 'Brassi', because this stadium is in the Brassi District of Genoa. I wrote it wrong in the chapter "A stadium" in front of it. For Sampdoria supporters, you will offend people by calling Brassi Stadium 'Ferraris Stadium and have changed it) playing football!"

"Then let's make an appointment to play football in the first team together."

"Okay, agreement! I don't want to be an opponent with you!" Masi laughed on the phone. "Although it's the first league in C, I will do my best!"

※※※

It was on the day when Masi said goodbye to Gao Zheng that Sampdoria welcomed the second new signing after the new head coach Atzori took office, Federico Piowacari.

This player once played for the Inter Milan youth team for a long time, but failed to play in Inter Milan's first team. Last season, he played 38 times in Chitadela in the second division and scored 23 goals, and was the top scorer in the Serie B last season.

This player was bought by Atzori after taking office, and obviously he was attracted by his outstanding scoring ability in the Serie B.

The reason why Sampdoria was relegated last season was closely related to their selling of two main scorers in the team during the winter break, Casano and Pazini.

So it seems that there is no problem for the new head coach to start with strengthening the strength of the front line in the new season.

You should know that Piowacari is not the only striker that Atzori bought after taking office.

Before the team reported, Sampdoria Club had already finalized the transfer work of another striker, Christian Bertani, under his instructions.

Also a striker who performed well in the second division last season, Bertani made 35 appearances in the Novara League, scoring seventeen goals and seven assists, helping Novara to advance to the first division.

Obviously, these two forwards are the main partners appointed by Atzori for Sampdoria to compete in the second division.

Judging from the performance last season, the introduction of these two people is almost impeccable.

But not everyone sees it that way.

Porata then took the newspaper and complained to his son: "What kind of striker should I buy? One is 3.5 million, one is 1.1 million... It's a total of 4.6 million! It's a waste! It doesn't take Gao and Icardi that kid, and spent more than 4 million to buy two strikers... Doesn't the new head coach know Gao's performance in the reserve team game?"

"The reserve team is still very different from the first team..." Franko said. "Maybe in the eyes of that head coach, the reserve team is performing well, and they have to start from scratch when they go to the first team."

Polata cursed reflexively: "What do you know!"

Franco was very aggrieved: "There is indeed a big gap between the reserve team and the first team. Otherwise, how could so many reserve team players have gained a foothold in the first team but so few?"

Seeing that his son dared to talk back, Porata was furious: "Goungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungungung

Franco did not dare to disobey his father, so Zhihao pouted and returned to the kitchen.

Porata continued to be behind the counter alone, looking at the photos of new players in the newspaper, and hummed dissatisfiedly: "Gao is different from those ordinary reserve players! He is a genius!"

PS, then what, it seems that life is indeed far more exaggerated than novels and YY.

From now on, I will not have any psychological burden in my novels no matter how I am. Some people dare to say that I am not true, so I will prove the incredible victory in the football game!

England actually lost to Croatia under a good situation!

This time I really want to come home...

Oh, there is no hurry, they will have another irrelevant game with Belgium...
Chapter completed!
