Regarding how to train a young player, Sporting Lisbon has its own youth training system.
Methods include but are not limited to: second team, loan, sale and buy-back clause...
Different methods are adopted for different players. The key is which one is more suitable for the players when it is in the interests of the club.
Su Dong is only seventeen years old, and it is very difficult for any seventeen-year-old player to enter the first team.
Geniuses such as Quaresma were only one month away from turning eighteen when he made his first appearance for Sporting Lisbon.
Is Cristiano Ronaldo talented enough?
He is the only young player in the history of Sporting Lisbon who has directly made a leap in promotion from U16 to U18 to the second team and then to the first team in one season. But so far, he has not been in the first team.
Appeared even for a minute.
The risks of youth training are very high.
In other words, professional football itself is a very high-risk industry.
For example, Nikule was very impressive in the Romanian league, but after coming to Sporting Lisbon, he was not accustomed to the environment. He even suffered injuries and was forced to stop playing for a long time. This deal caused heavy losses to Sporting Lisbon.
If the team hadn't performed well in the Portuguese Super League and Portuguese Cup, Boloni would have been under pressure from the board of directors and even questioned because of Niculai's transfer.
In the same way, no one knows what will happen in the world tomorrow.
Young players are even more changeable.
Maybe you perform very well this season, but the next season you perform completely, who knows?
The age of seventeen is full of unpredictability. Maybe you will be very successful in the future, or maybe you will die soon.
Just like when Maritimo missed Ronnie because he was late, do they regret it?
definitely.
But this was an afterthought. At the time, that was the norm.
For a player like Su Dong, the most important evaluation criterion for the technical team is whether he is needed by the first team?
…
After hearing Aurelio's question, everyone looked at Boloni in unison.
If the player is in Bologna's plan, it is obvious that the club will pay attention to it and increase its training efforts.
But if Bologna has no plan to give him a chance for the time being, the team will consider whether to accept offers from other teams at its discretion, because this is related to hundreds of thousands of euros in revenue.
Boloni also knew clearly what his choice would mean. After thinking about it carefully, he said: "I will consider giving them a chance to play in the first team this season. I am optimistic that Su Dong can give the team
Bring help.”
After hearing this, Pontes breathed a sigh of relief.
Obviously, this sentence basically means that the time for Su Dong to play in the first team is getting closer.
In fact, his ranking may have surpassed Gisvi and Laurenceau.
At least in the second team, Su Dong's performance has suppressed these two forwards.
"In that case, it's decided." Aurelio said immediately.
This decision was not difficult for Sporting Lisbon to make because Su Dong was only seventeen years old.
For a seventeen-year-old young player, as long as he can maintain the momentum of improvement, it is an investment full of potential.
This is also the reason why Sporting Lisbon's first team is basically composed of veterans and teenagers.
…
Now that the decision has been made, Pontes raised some of the problems he encountered.
"As I said just now, I was surprised by the speed of his improvement, especially after training with the first team. I found that we were gradually unable to keep up with him, especially in terms of physical training."
After all, Pontes was not a professional physical trainer. Some of his physical training was more aimed at young people under the age of fifteen. When Su Dong made rapid progress, he began to be unable to keep up.
The first team also has physical coaches, but they serve more of the entire team and cannot be specifically responsible for Su Dong.
"Before, he considered going to the gym, but I rejected it because I thought the gym could not provide him with a complete set of targeted and intensive physical training programs. I suggested that he hire a professional personal trainer."
The center's body is very important. Boloni also said before that Su Dong's body is still at a disadvantage when facing adults.
It can be seen that physical improvement is imminent for Su Dong.
And Su Dong also found that Pontes' physical training seemed a bit insufficient for him, because the speed of improvement in strength had slowed down.
That's when the idea of hiring a personal trainer came up.
"Yes, half of the cost will be subsidized by the club." Aurelio decided immediately.
This is a benefit that the club values.
Since we have to do our best to train him, investing more in hiring a personal coach is just an investment in the future for Sporting Lisbon.
Football director Carlos Freitas also had no opinion on this.
Naturally, Pontes will be responsible for this matter, and Su Dong's agent Mendes will come forward.
…………
…………
Pontes and Mendes soon informed Su Dong that his personal trainer had been found.
Nuno Cruz, a native of Lisbon, Portugal, is 35 years old and is actually a professional player.
Ferreira, who has played in low-level leagues for a long time in his career, is, yes, the Ferreira team currently ranked eighth in the Portuguese Super League, but in the late 1980s when Nuno Cruz played, this team
Still struggling in the third tier league.
After moving around many teams, he went to Vicente, yes, the team that is currently ranked thirteenth in the Portuguese Super League. But in the early 1990s, he was still struggling in the second level league, and it was not until later that he
Promoted to the Portuguese Super League.
Nuno Cruz helped Vicente achieve promotion to the Premier League and once played as a main force in the Portuguese Premier League. Later, after the team was relegated, he went to another Portuguese Premier League team, the University of Coimbra. Due to his old age
, he only played in the main team in the first season, and then basically became a substitute. At the same time, he studied at the School of Physical Education and Exercise Science at the University of Coimbra.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! This is the second-ranked institution in the Portuguese Sports Institute, second only to the University of Porto.
After graduating from the University of Coimbra, he went to Loughborough University, ranked No. 1 in the world for further studies. After returning to China after graduation, he has been working in a prestigious gym in Lisbon. He heard that Sporting Lisbon is hiring a personal trainer.
Later, he applied for the job and was recognized by Pontes and Mendez.
…
Sudong met Nuno Cruz for the first time in Alcoschetti's gym.
He is a bit short, wearing a black loose T-shirt. He does not look very strong. He does not have the powerful feeling that a fitness instructor gives people. He wears a pair of glasses and holds a stack of thick materials in his hand.
, which makes him look more like a teacher than a fitness instructor.
"Nice to meet you, Su." When he saw Su Dong, Nuno Cruz immediately reached out his hand and showed a very friendly smile, "From today on, I will be your personal trainer."
"Hello, Nuno." Su Dong shook hands with him vigorously.
Nuno Cruz flipped through the information and scratched his head in embarrassment, "From now on, I will be there when you train every day, but in the morning..."
"It's okay, I'll come by myself in the morning." Su Dong understood.
At 4:30 every morning, this is a very troublesome thing for anyone.
Although he is a personal trainer, it is just a job after all, and he has his own family.
Therefore, both parties had already made an agreement before joining the company.
Nuno Cruz's work begins with the arrival of Soudon in Alcocheti.
Of course, he will also arrange additional training items in the morning.
"Now let me tell you what kind of help I can provide you."
With that said, Nuno Cruz handed Su Dong a piece of paper, on which the items were listed very clearly.
"I am your one-to-one training instructor. I will work closely with the team's coaching staff. I will also communicate and coordinate with the physical coach and team doctor every day. If you have any problems with your body, or if you have any questions about life,
For health issues, please feel free to consult me at any time.”
"This is a big aspect. When it comes to training, I will design a complete set of targeted physical strengthening training programs tailored for you."
"I have seen the plan that Pontes made for you before, as well as your current physical condition. My initial opinion is that your execution ability is very good, but the training plan is far from meeting your current needs. In a simple word
, your body is not full."
"Secondly, I am also a nutritionist. From now on, I will design the recipes for your three meals a day. I need you to cooperate with my arrangements as much as possible. This will be of great help to you."
"Of course, considering everyone's eating habits, I need to understand you in an all-round way, and I can communicate and solve any problems."
"Finally, what I want to tell you is that you are very important to Sporting Lisbon, but your body has not yet met the requirements of the Portuguese Super League, let alone a Portuguese Super League club like Sporting Lisbon. You need to let your body become
Being stronger will make you more confident and energetic on the court."
Nuno Cruz is obviously an excellent communicator. What he said was concise and to the point, and he easily gained Su Dong's trust, and Su Dong also raised his own questions.
"Is there any way to strengthen the muscles of the body while still maintaining flexibility and agility?"
After hearing Su Dong's concerns, Nuno Cruz smiled slightly and said, "This is my job, Su."
"Many people think that physical training will make the muscles harder and the body clumsy, but this is not normal. My duty is not only to train your body and strengthen your muscles, but also to make you change.
Being faster and more explosive, and at the same time more flexible and agile, there is no contradiction at all.”
After a pause, Nuno Cruz added: "Of course, this requires a process, and it is not just a training, nor is it just in Alcoschetti. For example, there is no swimming pool here, and there is no professional swimming pool here."
Yoga instructor, but these are what I want you to learn and master."
Su Dong was a little surprised when he heard that he also had to learn swimming and yoga to play football?
Never heard of this before.
Perhaps seeing the surprise on Su Dong's face, Nuno Cruz smiled confidently.
"Maybe you shouldn't think of me as a personal trainer, fitness coach or physical coach. I prefer to call myself a sports performance trainer."
