Football: Starting from being abandoned by Barcelona

2012, July 1st, morning.

The scorching sun was scorching the earth, and the players of Leicester City began to gather towards the training base.

At this time, there were already some fans surrounding the training base, and the scorching sun above their heads could not stop their enthusiasm.

Li Lei walked on the road to the training base with passion, and his arrival did not cause the slightest movement.

Although there were media reports and fans' opposition before, he was still a newcomer here.

Various luxury cars drove past him from time to time, which made him envious.

"He will become a rich man in the future."Li Lei thought to himself.

However, there were also people walking to the training base like him, and they were basically in the same situation as him.

"Good morning, Mr. Leiqi. Li Lei greeted the security guard as he passed by the base gate.

"Little guy, I recognize you. You must behave well in the future. Maybe I can become your first fan."Leqi said with a smile, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

When he came to the training ground, many players had gathered here to chat in twos and threes, telling interesting stories about the holiday.

Just as Li Lei was about to find a place to wait for the coach to arrive, an abrupt voice sounded on the court.

""Hi! Li here."

Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw Vardy waving his arms and calling him with a smile on his face.

Seeing his acquaintance, Li Lei walked in that direction and waved back at the other party.

Their actions attracted the attention of everyone present, but they just took a look and didn't care.

"Brother, you did well last season! You scored 31 goals and won a championship trophy. Li Lei said to Vardy with a smile.

"Li, I didn't expect you to pay attention to me. I'm so happy."Vardy was very excited when he heard Li Lei's story.

"Of course, as future partners, we still have this tacit understanding." Li Lei said as if it was a matter of course.

"But I don't know anything about you during this period of time. How have you been recently?"

"Very good, feeling healthy and enjoying everything you eat!"

When almost all the players of the team arrived, coach Pearson and the entire coaching staff finally came.

The head coach came forward and clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention and said,"Boys, I know it's not a pleasant thing to suddenly interrupt your vacation."

"But the new season is about to start, and you should also focus on your work and recover as soon as possible after the indulgence during the holidays."

"Now start calling the roll!"

"Wes Morgan, to"

"Drat, yes"......

"Vardy, here."

"Li Lei,"......

"Well, I'm glad that everyone is here. Captain Morgan is taking everyone to get a physical examination."

"Yes, BOSS."

The process of calling the roll is also a process of getting to know each other. There are quite a few new players this year, and they don't know each other, which makes the whole team feel very unfamiliar.

Afterwards, everyone, led by the captain, lined up to go to the physical examination center. This is another opportunity to increase mutual understanding and eliminate the sense of distance between each other.

These are all the captain's job, and he has the responsibility to coordinate the conflicts between the players in the team.

As the physical examination progresses, some are happy, while others are sad.

The results of the self-disciplined players during the holidays were quite good, while those players who declined in form were affected during the training period before the start of the game.

"Hey! Captain, do you still recognize us? We met before when we came for the trial."Li Lei said to the captain Morgan.

"Of course, you guys played well in that trial match, and I hope you can also perform well in the new season."Morgan smiled at Li Lei and said.

He was impressed by the two people in front of him. They were able to penetrate the goal he was defending twice, which showed how strong they were.

"How is it? Are you used to it on your first day?"

"Habits, special habits. Looking at the perfect lawns and various modern equipment, I never thought that our base could be so perfect."

"Haha! Our training base cannot be said to be the best in the UK, but it is definitely in the top five."

"You haven't seen the club's home stadium yet! It's even more stunning there!"

"I just love this place!" Li Lei expressed his feelings happily.

"Little guy, work hard! Try to become a starter as soon as possible."

Morgan rubbed Li Lei's hair and said, then walked to the next player.

"Li, you are really good at flattering me. You made me want to vomit." Vardy said with a vomiting expression.

"Brother, even though you are much older than me, you have to learn from me."

"It is definitely right to build a good relationship with the captain, so that you can integrate into the team as soon as possible, and then others will pass the ball to you."

Li Lei said with an expression of an experienced person.

"real?"

"I'm kidding. After all, we are all professional players. We still have some professional ethics."

"But there is nothing wrong with building good relationships with other people, and you can feel happy."

"All right! Even if what you said makes sense."

The whole morning passed with the physical examination. At noon, everyone came to the base cafeteria.

"Wow! This is too rich!"

In the cafeteria, various kinds of food are placed in a row for the players to choose from, including vegetables, fruits, beef, etc.

For Li Lei, although the food in the La Masia training camp was also good before, it is simply incomparable with here.

Vardy's performance is even worse. In the past, the salary from playing football could not support himself, and he had to work part-time for the rest of the time.

In terms of food, only basic nutrition can be guaranteed, and too many requirements cannot be made on the taste.

The two people with shining eyes quickly picked up the plates and rushed to the food pick-up area, without considering the feelings of others.

However, for these already famous players, they don't look down on these.

In their opinion, these meals are only healthy and have no other advantages.

"Hey! Here come two more naive bastards"

"Don't say that. Have you forgotten when you first came? Your performance was even worse than theirs."

"Get lost, when did I ever behave like that?"

"Why are you so anxious? Look how anxious he is!"

""Hahaha!"

A few jokes made the atmosphere in the cafeteria less dull.

Some of them knew Li Lei and Vardy, but most of them had no impression of them.

After all, half of the players in this newly formed team were new.

In the head coach's office, Captain Morgan was talking about something.

"Boss, all employees have completed the physical examination. The results will not be available until the afternoon at the earliest."

"Hmm! Morgan, what do you think of this team now?"

"The coach has to give his opinion. The team feels unfamiliar to me. Many of the new players are completely unknown to me."

"There is not much harmony and tacit understanding between the players."

"You are absolutely right about this, and this is also our next focus."
