GOAT: All Football Talents Are Mine

Chapter 33: 033. Going One Level Higher(1)



Although he was worried for a while, the talent that Hoyoung ultimately chose was 'the versatility of a midfield commander.'

'Tactical understanding' and 'two feet' are also desirable, but that is because they are talents that can be obtained from other players.

'I don't know exactly what kind of talent he has, but maximizing his playmaking through versatility is a very good way for now.'

Hoyoung wanted to become a striker who led the game, not just a striker who scored goals.

That's why I chose 'Middle Commander's Versatility (U)'.

"Thank you for the advice."

"Did this help you?"

"That's it!"

"haha. "I feel all good."

It didn't end there, and Balak told us many more stories after that.

The process of becoming a professional athlete and the things necessary for the athlete's life.

And again.

"When you come to Munich, I will give you a private lesson."

"I'm going to learn German today!"

"ha ha ha."

In addition, Ballack even gave me his email address, telling me to contact him at any time if I wanted to ask anything.

It was the perfect last night in Germany.

January 25, 2004.

Sao Paulo FC U13 coach Carlos visited the Bahafunda Training Center director's office after a long time.

It was because of a call from Director Victor.

"Welcome."

After exchanging greetings, Victor got to the point.

"I want you to take Giovanni's place."

"You mean U15?"

Giovanni, an Italian-Brazilian, was a youth coach at Sao Paulo FC and is currently leading the U15 team, but this time he left for Milan, Italy.

"That friend is planning to move to AC Milan."

Sao Paulo FC, which has signed a satellite club agreement with AC Milan for a long time, has had a lot of exchanges with them.

The rental and recruitment of players as well as the exchange of personnel among coaches and managers were actively taking place.

That was the reason why Giovanni went.

"Are you asking me to take the empty seat?"

"that's right."

To put it in a vulgar way, it is a tinkering.

Promotion with good words.

But Carlos had no desire to leave U13.

While U13 is a mine that excavates ores, U15 is a processing company that processes the excavated ores.

He was not in charge of the U13 team because the former suited him well, but he did not have the skills.

Quite the contrary.

Carlos was a coach with extensive experience in the youth league, and was a master that no one could easily defeat.

"So, is my successor Anderson head coach?"

"yes. "It's absolutely impossible to run in parallel, so just take charge of the U15."

Victor was blunt.

And Carlos accepted.

'If the club's circumstances are right, there is nothing we can do.'

Above all else, it was Carlos who worked for the club.

"Then we will bring some U13 players up. Including Casemiro, Douglas and a few others."

"haha. That's how it should be. The U15s are going to be fun this year."

The U15 league is the second most popular after the professional league.

This is because it is the time for the gemstones who honed their skills in U13 to shine.

In that sense, this year's U15 league was a huge hit.

"There's going to be a lot of banging and fuss. "I have no idea which team will win."

A truly exciting game.

It was like that once.

The U15 national league just 7-8 years ago.

Ronaldinho, Kaka, Adriano Robinho, Fred Cesar, etc.

A time when the superstars who lead the current Seleção played together.

I felt like I would be able to see the exciting league of that time again.

Director Victor's voice became very excited, as if he was excited just thinking about it.

"You heard it too, right? My name is Neymar. "I heard you are planning to be promoted to Santos FC's U15 level."

"I already watched one or two games and it was shocking. Just like when I first saw Ronaldinho."

Carlos clenched his chin.

If local rival Santos FC had recruited a top prospect, they couldn't just sit still.

"Then I'll have to think about it."

"which?"

"I'm thinking about taking him too."

"Ah, Woo Ho-young, that friend? I saw it in the final too. It's a bit of a flaw that he's not Brazilian, but his skills are amazing. But is it okay if there is an age difference?"

"There's nothing you can't do as long as you meet the physical requirements. "I'll take a medical test as soon as I get back in March… hm?"

Jiyiing.

"this."

What cut Carlos off was the cell phone vibrating in his pocket.

"Take it."

Carlos answered the phone and asked if he would excuse himself.

"This is Carlos. Hey, are you Hoyoung? what? Coming? already?"

After a while.

After finishing the short phone call, Carlos scratched his half-naked forehead.

"What transition?"

"haha. "He will enter the country tomorrow."

"why? "The kids start school in February, right?"

"He said he was coming for training and asked if he could use the training facility."

next day.

Upon arriving at Sao Paulo Airport, Hoyoung was picked up by Maria Choi and returned to his lodgings.

The house is so old that it creaks every time I walk, but it was nice to see it after a long time to see if it has become familiar.

and.

"Hoyoung!"

I was also glad to see Monica, who was maturing more precociously by the day.

'They say a woman's transformation is innocent.'

There were a lot of changes in her too.

Especially talent.

[Monica Stokey]

Talents

– Gifted gymnastics (B+)

– Innate sense of language (B)

– Balanced body balance (B+)

– Smooth flexibility (C+3)

– Flashy dance step combination (C+)

– Decent jumping ability (C)

-Rhythmic club windmill spinning (C)

(You can pursue one talent if you meet the conditions.)

(Condition 1: Converse in a foreign language for 6000 minutes)

(Condition 2: Pass the Brazilian International Language Certification Test Selfibras Advanced or higher)

(Condition 3: Stretching together for more than 300 minutes)

'Your language sense remains at grade B.'

Instead, the conditions remained the same.

Condition 1 and Condition 3 were already satisfied, and only Condition 2 remained.

I thought that if I studied hard, I might be able to get an advanced certification within this year.

'First, let's bring about language sense and then body balance.'

But then Monica raised her right arm above her head.

"Just a little longer and I'll have to look up at you."

"Why do you look disappointed?"

"I can't stroke your head!"

"Then I can pet it."

"huh? Ugh~."

It was Monica who turned her head away as if she were embarrassed.

By the time a month had passed since then, the scorching heat was rampant.

February 17th.

It was a day when good news came to Hoyoung, who was attending school and soccer training at the same time.

[I crave the midfield commander's versatility (U).]

[The container of talent is expanded.]

[The time required to covet the talent is shortened.]

[To fully acquire the talent (60 days) → (30 days) This takes: You cannot covet other talents for 30 days.]

"… Hoo!"

Isn't this what an unexpected gift is?

The versatility of Central Commander Balak.

'It was a talent that influenced other talents!'

Balak's kind face appeared in my mind.

Who dared call him Kongrak?

Although Ballack was nicknamed Kongrak because he only finished second, he was number one to Hoyoung.

I had a good feeling.

And that premonition soon came true.

It had been three weeks since I accelerated my talent growth training.

'Is this the effect of soccer genius?'

Hoyoung realized that his talent grew much faster than before.

In particular, Grade C talent achieved rapid growth.

[Woo Ho-young]

Talents

-Soccer genius (A)

-Midfield commander's versatility (U)

-Chaminator's hitting and running (U)

-Fast legs as fast as a Lamborghini (A+2)

-Outstanding space penetration (A+)

-Strong body (B+2)

-Ball cutting in an instant (B+)

-Widely open growth plate (B+)

-Quite heavy mid-distance shot (C+3)

-Rhythmic flexibility (C+3)

-Quite flashy footwork (C+3)

– Healthman's solid muscles (C+3)

– Decent heading (C+3)

– Quite sharp 2-on-1 pass (C+3)

– Stylish free kick (C+3)

– Knife-like ball distribution (C+2)

-Good ball blocking (C+2)

-Delicate ball touch (C+)

There are three talents that have grown most noticeably.

Fast legs that rival a Lamborghini (A+2). He had

a strong body (B+2)

and the solid muscles of a gymnast (C+3).

'They all have something in common: they are related to physics. It probably means that each influences the other's growth.'

Just as people who are usually good at math are good at science.

So-called interaction!

In other words, as the body became stronger, the muscles became stronger and the faster the legs became.

'I think the physical strength is excellent at this level and the U13 league will be a piece of cake.'

It's a season to look forward to.

The U13 team will be convened soon.

It was time to get into peak condition and accelerate preparations for the league match.

And it was just now that a welcome voice came from the entrance to the training ground.

"Woo!"

"Oh. "Director!"

Coach Carlos came to the training ground.

He asked Hoyoung.

"Do you have any plans after school tomorrow?"

"I plan to come out here and train."

"Then come to the body measurement room by 2:20 p.m."

The next afternoon.

The medical test was conducted as scheduled.

In addition to Hoyoung, several other players, including Casemiro and Douglas, were there, but for some reason, it was obvious that they were all nervous.

Everyone was giving their all to the test.

'Well, they're older. If I want to move up to U15, I'll have to cross the threshold today.'

Today's test will determine their future.

The same goes for Hoyoung.

I was secretly looking forward to it, but I didn't think it would be easy.

Skipping a grade.

Just because you score a lot of goals doesn't mean you can move up to the top team.

I didn't have high expectations.

The examination that soon started was even more complicated than the one I had when I entered U13 last year.

Cardiac function/cardiopulmonary endurance/blood/protein/25m sprint are basic.

Various tests including musculoskeletal system/isokinetic strength/body fat were added.

And at the end of the test at 4:10 p.m.

The medical team doctor who came to give Carlos an interim report made a subtle expression.

"Haha… this is it. "I can't believe it."

"What do you mean?"

"An Asian boy broke Ma's 4 seconds."

"what?"

The medical doctor said while holding up the test results.

"25 meter sprint. Look here."

"… 3 seconds 97?"

"Of course, this figure includes gunshot reactions."

"What is this? Definitely last year…"

"Yes. "You jumped up and down."

The two looked like they couldn't believe it.

"wait a minute. There must have been a record of Hikarod at this time. Ah, here it is 3.78 seconds."

At the age of 12, Kaka's record was 3 seconds 78.

On the other hand, Hoyoung's record was 3 seconds 97. There are

significant differences depending on the method of measuring the 25-meter distance, but by Sao Paulo standards, it was the best of the best.

"It's clean enough for track and field. "I think I would probably be in the top ten compared to other gifted students in Korea."

The actual 100-meter world record for elementary school students is in the low 11 seconds range.

This is similar to Cha Du-ri, who is said to be the fastest in Korea National University.

In other words, Hoyoung's current speed is faster than that of most adult soccer players.

"It's faster than Patou and Douglas."

"That doesn't make sense."

Carlos could not hide his embarrassment.

This is because I have never seen such rapid growth.

"So what is the result?"

"I passed. "I can play in about 31 games this season. I have far exceeded the standard."

"haha."

Carlos laughed.

'What on earth happened during that time?'

Whatever it was, this one thing was certain.

'You worked hard.'

That was all I could think of.
