The two of them were very close.

"Xia! Let me introduce you. This is John Terry, the assistant coach of Aston Villa's first team."

"I think you should be familiar with him."

At this time, Charles, the youth training coach, introduced Xia Yuan.

"Of course, I grew up watching Mr. Terry play football."

John Terry smiled and said to Xia Yuan, "Young man, you played well. Your pass is very accurate. It reminds me of Lampard."

"But Lampard was not as good as you when he was 17."

After hearing John Terry's praise, Xia Yuan was naturally happy. After all, it also showed that his strength was recognized by Terry!

"Thank you, coach."

Terry nodded and said to Xia Yuan: "Although I am not the head coach of Aston Villa, but just an assistant coach, I believe that after reading my report, Coach Dean Smith will definitely promote you to the first team."

"Pack up these few days and get ready for the first team."

After Terry gave a few instructions, he left the stadium with youth coach Charles.

After Terry left, Aston Villa U17 teammates immediately surrounded Xia Yuan. It can be seen that their faces were full of envy and excitement!

As Xia Yuan's roommate, Kak hugged Xia Yuan's neck and shouted excitedly: "Xia! I told you! You will definitely be promoted to the first team!!"

Xia Yuan said calmly: "This matter has not been confirmed yet, and there may be variables."

Then, Kak said firmly: "Didn't you hear what Terry said just now! You are a better midfielder than Lampard!!"

"Lampard! ! The double core of England and Chelsea back then!"

"Don't worry! You will definitely be promoted to the first team!"

"If you are not promoted to the first team! I... wash my hair upside down!"

After Kak finished speaking, Aston Villa U17's striker, Tel, had a complicated emotion. He couldn't help but say: "Xia, when you are promoted to the first team, my number of goals will be reduced!"

"No one will be able to pass me long passes over the top in the future!"

...

11 o'clock in the evening.

Inside the Aston Villa U17 club.

Dean Smith, the head coach of the first team, received Terry's technical analysis report on Xia Yuan.

Two full pages!

Quite comprehensive.

[Xia Yuan, 17 years old, 183cm tall, plays as a midfielder, has excellent football IQ, has a strong sense of the overall situation, can always find the space of teammates in the first time, passes accurately, especially long passes, and has the ability to penetrate the defense line. In the U17 game, he was full of energy and was still able to carry out high-intensity confrontation and sprint after 85 minutes. He has a certain level of interception and excellent defense. Player development template: Pirlo, Lampard, De Bruyne. Signing suggestion: Sign immediately. ]

Then, Terry sent the video of Xia Yuan's game recording to Dean Smith's mailbox.

When Dean Smith finished watching it, he obviously couldn't sit still!

He was very sure.

This 17-year-old Chinese teenager is the talented star he is looking for!

So, Dean Smith immediately called Charles, who was in charge of the youth training camp, and asked Xia Yuan to report to the club now!

The reason why coach Dean Smith was so anxious, in addition to Xia Yuan's strength being recognized by him, was that the team's midfielder Glenn Whelan was injured.

In the English Championship game that just ended tonight, Glenn Whelan was injured in the confrontation. After the preliminary diagnosis by the team doctor, it was determined that the ligament was torn and it would take at least three months to recover from the injury.

Dean Smith needs to find a suitable replacement, and Xia Yuan is obviously very suitable.

When Xia Yuan was about to wash and rest, youth coach Charles visited.

"Xia! Congratulations on your promotion to the first team!!"

The expression on Charles' face was quite excited!

He was really proud of Xia Yuan. After all, if Xia Yuan hadn't come out of nowhere, his youth coach position would have been lost long ago!

"Hurry! Pack your luggage! Go to the club right now!"

"Ah! Now?"

"But it's already 11:30 pm...where will I sleep after I get there!"

Xia Yuan didn't expect to be so anxious.

Youkak said to Xia Yuan disapprovingly: "Go quickly! Aston Villa is such a big club, how can there be no place for you to sleep!"

Coach Charles explained to Xia Yuan: "The reason why you report to the club so late is probably because he wants to sign a professional contract with you. If you sign today, you may be able to catch up with the English Championship game three days later."

"Ah! Playing the game so soon!" Xia Yuan didn't expect happiness to come so quickly!

During the day, he was still an Aston Villa U17 youth player, and at night he was about to become a professional player.

Charles looked at his watch and didn't have time to explain to Xia Yuan. He hurriedly urged, "Let's go! I'll drive you to the club!"

After that, Charles hurried downstairs with Xia Yuan's luggage.

On the way to Aston Villa Club, Charles informed Xia Yuan of the news that Glenn Whelan was injured.

"Do you mean that I can start in the next English Championship game?"

Xia Yuan sat in the co-pilot and asked in disbelief.

Charles shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily true. Although Glenn Whelan is injured, there must be substitutes who can play Glenn Whelan's position. You can only be on the bench at most."

"Of course, everything is unknown!"

"Coach Dean Smith likes to use young people very much. Maybe you will be the main player when you go to the first team!"

About ten minutes later.

Charles and Xia Yuan came to Aston Villa Club.

At the door of the club, head coach Dean Smith and assistant coach John Terry have been waiting for a long time.

"It seems that you have a lot of face. The head coach and assistant coach personally greeted you, hahaha!"

Charles never thought that the first-team coach would pay so much attention to Xia Yuan.

He quickly opened the car door and walked in front of Dean Smith with Xia Yuan.

Dean Smith took the lead in greeting Xia Yuan.

"Hello, Xia Yuan, I am Dean Smith, the head coach of Aston Villa."

"From now on, you will be a player of Aston Villa's first team."

"I watched your U17 game, you performed very well, and Terry also told me that your passing is better than Lampard's when he was young. I am looking forward to you being able to play your talent in Aston Villa's first team."
