Football: What is a mad dog full-back?

Chapter 1

(Parallel world, no need to worry, enjoy it slowly.)

(Brazil national team, together with Neymar, achieved six-star Brazil, no more to say.)

June 2015.

Lisbon, Portugal.

[Sun: Benfica U19 player Andy suffers from ALS! ]

[Bild: God is jealous of talents! Andy was diagnosed with "ALS" in the first-team physical examination, and may bid farewell to professional football! ]

[Ball News: The club tested Andy for growth factor injections, and found ALS genes. ]

[Portuguese Sports: The main force of the Youth Champions League runner-up was backstabbed! Insiders revealed that Benfica immediately stopped the contract! ]

...

"I didn't expect that I would still not be able to get rid of this disease after living again."

Looking at the overwhelming news reports, Andy scratched his scalp.

In his previous life, he died young because of ALS, so he cherished it after his rebirth, but he didn't expect to win again.

Andy has paid too much to grow into a main force of a large club's youth team.

There are dozens of clubs in Portugal, and youth training is divided into several levels.

Take Benfica, where he is, as an example. From low to high, they are football school-development center-elite team-echelon reserve team-echelon.

Which level you can enter is basically selected layer by layer.

There are one million football teenagers in Portugal, less than 200 of whom can play in the Portuguese Super League, and players in the five major leagues are even rarer.

Even if you add other levels of leagues, the probability of becoming a professional player is less than 1%!

Even if you get a professional contract, there is always a risk of being laid off.

Stories like Vardy's counterattack from a low level to the Premier League have a probability of 0.00001.

What people see is just the survivor bias.

Most players are constantly moving down from high-level leagues, but it does not mean that they can find employment in low-level leagues.

Just like it is not easy for employees of large companies to find suitable jobs in small companies...

Players like Andy are definitely the best among them.

He started professional training at the age of 6 and joined the U12 at the age of 10.

He played at least 50 games a year and has 500 games of experience so far...

He also won the runner-up of the Youth Champions League as a main player!

Perhaps because he has lived two lives, recalling the hardships along the way, Andy remains optimistic.

At least he has not had a relapse yet!

Instead of wasting his talent and giving up, he might as well try harder...

At the same time, the youth training department of Benfica Club was in a meeting.

Manager Ruiz took out a contract, "The club has prepared an exclusive contract for Andy considering the cost of training him."

Hearing the word "exclusive", everyone present couldn't help but praise the club in their hearts.

From youth training to professional, the contracts for each position of the players have standardized processes.

"Exclusive contracts" are always only applicable to talented players recognized by the club!

Obviously, Andy is such a player, and the club's decision this time is definitely very humane.

However...

When everyone saw the contract terms, they called him a capitalist...

[Playing time in a season must reach more than 70% of the total playing time, otherwise the salary will be deducted in proportion. ]

[No comments unfavorable to the club can be made on social media, and no inappropriate behavior can be displayed. ]

[Cannot transfer to a specific club during the contract period, even if these clubs are interested in the player and are willing to pay the transfer fee. ]

...

In addition, there are some unreasonable performance requirements.

For example, outrageous terms such as passing success rate and defensive interception times...

Everyone who saw the terms looked very bad!

Everyone knows that no player will accept such harsh terms. This is clearly forcing the players to leave on their own initiative!

In that case, the club will not bear the stigma of abandoning players, but can create a positive image because of the contract...

The physical coach of the youth team, Tom, was so angry that he resigned on the spot because Andy was the player he discovered and trained.

When Andy got this "contract", he sighed helplessly.

As expected of a famous European black shop, I didn't expect that they would treat their own people the same way.

As long as they can bring value, the first-team players can be sold at will.

They are like this, not to mention that I am just a youth training player with a scholarship contract...

Choosing to refuse is the last decency.

So on the same day, Benfica's official website issued an announcement:

[After friendly negotiations, the player Andy left the team as a free agent...]

Perhaps because they believed that Andy would definitely bid farewell to football, the club made an even more disgusting decision.

OriginalThe season bonus that originally belonged to Andy will be deducted as compensation for the club's youth training...

In this way, the bonus that can reach 80,000 euros after tax will be less than 10,000!

Andy carried all his belongings and returned to his rented apartment from the club.

Unfortunately, the elevator of the apartment was under maintenance.

There was no choice but to climb the stairs back to his home on the 20th floor...

When he was halfway there, his legs felt heavy and a feeling of weakness came over him.

When he reached the 20th floor, his legs were completely weak and he sat on the ground.

After a long time, he moved to the room little by little.

Lying on the bed, Andy felt his legs silently.

His experience with ALS in his previous life made him realize that it should be a flare-up.

Even though he was optimistic, he couldn't hold it anymore!

I thought I could fight while I was young, but I ended up collapsing halfway...

God of the password, other people have a system or something when they are reborn, why is there nothing here?

At this moment, a heavenly sound came to my ears...

[The host's life countdown has been detected, and the system has been successfully bound! ]

[The "Football Saves Your Life 3000" system is dedicated to serving you! ]

[Complete the task to accumulate points to exchange for health value! ]

[Get binding reward: 100 health value]

[Lou Gemini -1 health value]

[Current host health value balance: 10+99 (extra health)]

...

Andy suddenly had an urge to cry!

I have been wandering for half my life, and I only regret that I have not met a wise master. If you don't abandon me, I am willing to be your adoptive father...

Although it is not a fancy system, it can save lives!

[Current task: Successfully sign a contract with a mainstream European league club. ]

[Task reward: Health value gift package. ]

[Tip: The higher the club ranking, the richer the content of the gift package. ]

...

Andy did not have time to check the task carefully because he was shocked by the feedback from his thigh!

Just by consuming 1 extra health point, it offset the symptoms of ALS?

Is this the power of the system? !

However, the next morning, when Andy saw the flow prompt that he had lost another 1 health point, he knew that ALS still existed...

It seems that his top priority is to sign a contract with a club to complete the task.

As the saying goes, bad times will bring good times!

At this time, a call from physical coach Tom was like a miracle!
