Dream Training : The Champions

Chapter 11 - Find Kazuki

"Sorry I lost him ... yes I will immediately look for him, I will ask Manchester United ... good night." John closed his cellphone with a feeling of depression.

Yesterday, he watched the Manchester United U-18 match again, but the problem was Kazuki was not on the list of players who were brought by Manchester United U-18 in the match. This arouses suspicion in John's mind. Finally, John asked the other Manchester United U-18 player. Then, he learned the contract between Manchester United U-18 with Kazuki was over. Kazuki also left somewhere.

Of course, as the object of Southampton's observation, Kazuki has several things that have been recognized by Southampton's U-23 coach this season. Some videos of Manchester United matches have been John sent to Southampton clubs, and Southampton's coaching staff agreed that Kazuki had capability and potential. At least, Kazuki deserves to be trained by Southampton.

Kazuki's sudden departure caused John to feel depressed. For Scouts, it is very difficult to find talented children who do not attract the attention of other clubs and also have the potential to be trained. With the advancement of technology and the growing expansion of the scouting system, making every talented teenager will surely enter the many club radars.

European top clubs may only wait for players who have proven themselves in the senior league but for middle and small class clubs they gamble to young players who have not proven themselves on the senior stage. As one of the clubs that often gamble to young players who have not started a senior career, Southampton has several criteria used to assess whether the player can adapt to the senior level league or not.

From John's assessment, Kazuki had a 75% chance to adapt to the Championship and 49% adapt to the Premier League. This data is not always accurate but can help Southampton in making decisions.

John pondered about where he must go to find Kazuki.

"Did he undergo a trial at another club?"

If Kazuki really underwent a trial at another club then the Southampton chance to get Kazuki's signature will get smaller. However other clubs can also see Kazuki's advantage.

For Scouts, the more players they recommend used by the club, the higher their reputation. There is a possibility that the reconnaissance salary will rise. Weighing the current competition, John thinks that if he manages to persuade Kazuki to undergo a trial in Southampton, there is a possibility that the club will sign him. Then, John himself felt the club would approve the salary request he filed.

One week John looked for instructions on Kazuki's whereabouts, the results were zero. He did not find any clue. After a week finally, Southampton gave up looking for Kazuki.

John then received a call that he would become a Southampton representative to attend the LFE assessment exam which will be held in Birmingham. Of course, John was pleased with his failure in watching Kazuki did not make the club officials think that he was incompetent.

With enthusiasm, John went to use the city of Birmingham 2 weeks before the event took place.

The next day after arriving at Birmingham, John exercised in the park. To maintain health at the age of 49 years John always if there is an opportunity. There is also another advantage for John if he exercised in the park, there is a possibility that John will meet with young people who often exercise in the park. If John is lucky then he will find The football players who are practicing. Even if John did not meet the footballer who are practicing, he could also enjoy the view of young girls who were jogging.

After running a few rounds John decided to sit rest in the garden chair. His clothes were wet with sweat, his breath was also panting to breathe oxygen greedily.

When John was relaxing his body, he observed the people who walked past him one by one. His attention was then interested in two Asians who were exercising. John felt familiar with the face of Asian youth who was exercising with a woman.

After the two people moved away then John remembered who the young man was.

"That's Kazuki! He's in Birmingham! Damn, I have to immediately see him before it's too late." John immediately got up from the garden chair and ran towards Kazuki passing.

Kazuki's existence in Birmingham is certain because he will take the LFE assessment exam. The clubs attending LFE are not just the Championship league but also the Premier League, in which there is a rival Southampton. John won't let Kazuki fall into another club. He must convince Kazuki to undergo a trial in Southampton and cancel Kazuki's plan to take the LFE Assessment exam.

For two weeks since he left the Manchester United academy, he underwent everyday training with Kim Song Ha in Birmingham City. The air temperature in this city slowly decreases every day. However, there will be a new year, and as usual, in December snow will go down heavily.

Kazuki was worried if the snow dropped, the examination test of the League Football Education will be postponed until January. Kazuki didn't want to wait too long to go back to a football match that he now missed.

The food and everyday sports schedule Kazuki is well arranged by Kim Song Ha. Kim Song Ha also informed effective exercises to strengthen leg muscles. He also helped Kazuki strengthen his confrontation skills without excessive training so that the muscle balance and Kazuki's height were still maintained properly. Because if Kazuki develops muscle frivolously maybe he will lose speed and his body's flexibility.

Kazuki and Kim Song Ha suddenly heard the sound of footsteps quickly towards them. Kazuki turned and saw a middle-aged man who ran towards him. Kim Song Ha stood in front of Kazuki and put on stances, just in case the people who approached both were criminals.

The middle-aged man suddenly stopped seeing the stances used by Kim Song Ha, "Wait a minute, I'm not a criminal. N-names John Remblewton I am a scout of the Southampton club, I want to talk to Kazuki."

John took out his name card and gave it to Kazuki. Kazuki saw the business card fine before nodding in understanding. He then said to Kim Song Ha, "calm down he is safe."

Kim Song Ha lowered her stance, John took a sigh of relief to see it.

"Then let's talk in a good place. I'll treat you two to eat," John said to Kazuki and Kim Song Ha.

Kazuki nodded, he was rather surprised there was a scout who observed him.. It shows that someone has recognized Kazuki's potential.
