443 New model of youth training
readx;
When he first founded the scouting department, Xiao Yu was worried that he would forget the names of some familiar stars after a long time, so he wrote a list of future stars, including Di Maria, Ozil, and Thomas? Muller and other stars. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Later, with the improvement of the scouting department, some scouting reports were constantly sent to Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu would get used to the names of the stars he was familiar with in his previous life, so that the scouting department would pay attention to them, and over time, the scouting department of the Red Rebels unconsciously grasped the movements of the future rising stars a few years later, and some of them were even under the attention of the Red Rebels.
For this point, Xiao Yu undoubtedly ignored it, after all, he is not a supercomputer, and it is impossible to calculate everything, he doesn't know at all, the list he has drawn up makes every staff member of the scouting department a celestial, and even Boyas is full of praise for his vision.
But this list also brought a big problem, that is, with Xiao Yu's retreat into the background, with the decentralization of power in his hands, especially with the Red Rebels winning the European Champions Cup, the scouting department also began to hoard the talent of the giants.
Twin brothers Ganso, Nimar, Fabio and Rafael, Hamsik, Mamadou? Sako, Jovetic, Lukaku, Devoor, Annan, Fellaini...... Xiao Yu first saw the names of Nimar, Fabio and Rafael brothers in the club's new season training squad, which was a little strange, because he didn't receive any news about the transfer of these three, so he went to the scouting system to search and found that their transfer prices were very low.
Since Xiao Yu decentralized, transfers of no more than 5 million pounds are generally not more than 5 million pounds, as long as the scouting department and head coach Mourinho negotiate and agree, they can be directly handed over to the Ministry of Commerce without notifying Xiao Yu.
This made Xiao Yu not know that his club had introduced these three future Brazilian stars without his knowledge, especially Nimal, who was only 13 years old, but in order to avoid the regulations that Brazilian rising stars are not allowed to play abroad under the age of 18, the club used another rule in Brazil, that is, parents go abroad to work, and children can follow abroad without being restricted by this provision.
In addition, as far as Xiao Yu knows, this prohibition on staying abroad under the age of 18 does not include the Portuguese league.
Xiao Yu was really surprised to see that the club's scouting department was actually recruiting according to the list he had written before, and almost all of the most talented rookies in Europe in the future were under his command.
At the beginning of the crossing, Xiao Yu did continue to recruit stars for the team, but that was because he knew that the team could not retain people in the lower leagues, but with the promotion of the Red Rebels to the Premier League, with the rise of the Red Rebels, and as the Red Rebels' reputation for cultivating young players spread, the Red Rebels' attraction to young players has long been different.
At this time, what Xiao Yu was worried about was not whether he could dig people, but whether the player he poached could reach the height of his previous life.
Judging from the current situation, under the control of Xiao Yuli, the development of the young stars poached by the Red Rebels is very good, Walcott has performed well in the youth team, known as the new Henry, and his speed and explosiveness are very good, but the most commendable thing is that his skills are very good, which is completely different from the little tiger in his previous life.
In the same situation, there are two new stars in England, Rodwell and Wilshere, who are developing better than in previous lives. Thornton is also under the cultivation of the club and is very favored by Mourinho.
In addition, the development of those stars who have been out on loan is also more desirable than in previous lives, such as Dzeko, who was in the top three scorers of League One last season. Hart was the best goalkeeper in League One last season. Richards was named in League One's Team of the Season, a young man who showed extraordinary potential.
But Xiao Yu has to worry about whether they can continue to develop like this once there are more players signed?
........................ "Absolutely!" ”
When Xiao Yu threw his worries to Boas, the first leader of the Red Rebels' scouting department, the hottest scout in European football today, Boas answered in the affirmative.
'Taking responsibility for the players, that's what you instill in the club and we never forget it, so we take responsibility for every player we sign and we do everything we can to help them grow and improve, and at the same time give them the best and the best possible space to develop.
When Xiao Yu heard this, he was stunned at first, but soon a wave of satisfaction surged up, yes, even if he decided to retreat into the background, his influence on this club has long been deep-rooted, and every move of the club is still being implemented according to his philosophy.
"But these players are coming together in Manchester, and they can play against the Red Rebels?"
Who knew that Xiao Yu's words made Boyas a little surprised, "No, no, no, we don't plan to keep them in the club!" ”
Xiao Yu was even more surprised, and soon, he saw Boyas handing him a report, which was about the cooperative club.
"After understanding the scouting department, as well as our discussions with Jose and the coaching staff, we all feel that the team's cooperation with Benfica is very good, and we, Benfica and the players have all got the benefits they want, and the cost is not high, but the results are ideal."
After a pause, Boas continued: "Looking at the whole of Europe, the general success rate of the youth training system is less than 15%, even if we are the best class, the success rate is only 25%, and people like Messi, Ismael, Michael? Johnson and other players who can play in the main team in the first team, even less! ”
For this, Xiao Yu knows very well that football competition is cruel, and it is impossible for all players who enter the Red Rebels academy to become professional players, only a few people have such qualifications, and most of them can only mix in the lower leagues.
It is precisely because of the low success rate of football youth training, so Xiao Yu attaches great importance to the cultural education of the youth academy, and the club even clearly stipulates that players who fail the cultural course will not be allowed to participate in training and competitions, all because the club is based on thinking about the life of the players, even if they cannot play in the professional league in the future, they can continue to study and have a stable job in the future.
For Xiao Yu and the Red Rebels, this is already the limit, and this also makes the Red Rebels' academy highly sought after by parents and well-known in the football world.
"However, we can see from Benfica's partnership that the success rate is higher, because before that, we took Benfica's needs into account and brought them a centre-back and a right wing-back, so Thiago? Silva and Alves were able to get a lot of work out of the game, plus we and Benfica were doing everything they could to help the players develop. ”
"Two years, Thiago? Silva has established himself as one of Europe's most famous centre-backs, having been acquired by AC Milan, while Alves has the quality to play for our first team, and over the past two years we have found experience that we can replicate. ”
"Promotion?" Xiao Yu asked.
"Our club has reached an agreement with Ajax and Genk in the Netherlands to sign a five-year partnership that will allow us to continue the Benfica model with both clubs, in addition to having the right of first refusal to buy players from both clubs!"
During the introduction, Boyas let Xiao Yu see the report he had carefully formulated.
It was the latest big move by the Red Rebels' scouting department, which was previously decided after consultations between the heads of several departments, including Walsh, David, Mourinho and Boas.
At present, Ajax and Genke have a common surname, that is, they are both good at developing young players, the former has not been in a good financial situation in recent years, and the huge youth network needs a huge amount of money to maintain, which makes it more difficult for Ajax to operate.
The situation of the Genke team is similar to that of Benfica, they don't have too much strength, basically aiming to impact the League Cup, and they have cooperated with the Red Rebels before, but with Yaya? With Toure leaving, the two sides have not worked together again, but with the decline of the Genke team in recent years, the business has become more difficult, and when they saw that Benfica, who had worked with the Red Rebels, reached the final of the League Cup, they took the initiative to find the Red Rebels.
For these three partner clubs, they help the Red Rebels develop players, in addition to being able to get an additional development fee when the players leave, they also get an annual fee every year, and they can also share the Red Rebels' scouting database, which is something that countless clubs can only dream of.
In addition, Genk will also be a partner club signed by the Red Rebels for non-European players, EU citizenship and labor certification.
In addition to Pastore, Otamendi and Di Maria going to Benfica, Hamsik, Pato, Ganso, and Annan, a strong defender who has moved from the Red Rebels' sub-club Libertarians in Africa, will be loaned to Ajax, with Pato and Ganso being transferred to Sao Paulo by escaping the 18-year-old ban on staying abroad.
Ajax's twin stars Van der Vaart and Sneijder have been confirmed to join Manchester City in the new season, and the transfer fee has not been disclosed, and it is precisely because of the departure of Van der Vaart and Sneijder that the Red Rebels will decide to loan Hamsik and Ganso to Ajax for training.
However, it is said that the transfer to Ajax and Manchester City broke up unhappily, and the reason is still Van Gaal and Arneson, who privately contacted Van der Vaart and Sneijder, and after reaching an agreement with the player, put pressure on the club, which made Ajax, who originally only intended to let Van der Vaart go, have to accept Sneijder's transfer.
Ibrahimovic, Van der Vaart and Sneijder, the three leading stars, Ajax's strength was damaged, and the club's financial turnover had some problems, so in the end Ajax chose to cooperate with the Red Rebels, after all, the two sides have had a close relationship in recent years, and Xiao Yu and the chairman of Ajax are even more close friends.
As for the Genk team, the Red Rebels signed the Genk team's rising midfielder Devore at a low price, and then brought in Marouan from Belgium's Standard Column and Serbia's Bulgrade Partizan at a low price? Fellaini and Jovetic, and then Mamadou? Sacco sent these four players on loan to Genke.
"I've sent a technical team and lab staff to Belgium, Portugal and the Netherlands to do the most detailed technical and physical tests for each of our young players on loan, and then we will develop a complete set of technical and physical reinforcement training for each player based on all aspects of the player's information to help them grow and improve!"
"In addition, we are all loaning players in the corresponding positions according to the needs of Genke, Ajax and Benfica, and they have all promised to give our players enough opportunities to practice, after all, the growth and improvement of the players is also a great benefit to them!"
Listening to Boyas's words, Xiao Yu remembered Chelsea's original cooperation with PSV Eindhoven, Chelsea bought Alex from Brazil and went on loan to PSV Eindhoven, but then took it away with a symbolic £1 for his surname.
PSV Eindhoven have also become cold about working with Chelsea as a result.
However, the cooperation model proposed by Boas, despite the suspicion of the Red Rebels hoarding stars, is still very attractive to young players, especially South American and African players, who are eager to land in the Europa League, and use the second tier of the league as a pedal, which can help them better adapt to the Europa League.
From another point of view, Real Madrid, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Barcelona, AC Milan and Juventus, etc., which of these giants has not hoarded stars? Which of them doesn't have a lot of rising stars?
Even if in the next few years, Barcelona's youth training system will be blown to the sky, but as everyone knows, there are still countless stars left out of Barcelona, and I don't know how many players have been kidnapped by Barcelona in the name of loyalty, wasting years on the bench, and wasting an outstanding football talent in vain, the most typical is Gerrard, who is making a move this season.
On the other hand, the Red Rebels, the players are on loan, but the Red Rebels still value them, and the club they belong to also reuse them, as long as they are really capable, then they can play well, and even if they can't play for the Red Rebels, they can play for other teams, which is much better than playing in South America and Africa, or some other lesser-known leagues and teams.
In addition, Xiao Yu always feels that whether it is a South American player or an African player, it is not a good thing to reach the sky in one step!
